There is no data in the cron program.
Just an ‘ok’ in the box on the left. This updates with another ‘ok’ pretty often.
The box on the right has the sensors names.
I have the wind/rain sensor and the outdoor temperature sensor.
The space in the middle of those two boxes is just showing a series of —
I have the station ID and the check box UDP is checked. (it makes no difference if I uncheck it).
Yes, I have tried it ticked and not ticked, restarts between both.
It does not make any difference to the data in the cron program or the main weatherdisplay program.
the issue with the UDP data could be a router issue (there was someone else who reported they had to set a bind setting in their router settings for the weatherflow hub)
I have got data a couple of times using your station ID and not using UDP data
(but its intermitant)
one thing make sure to not set as private data only, your weather flow data
Thanks for your help Brian.
Not sure what else either of us can do.
I have the station set to Public (always has been), but not sharing with WU (Was going to do that through WD).
I am getting data reliably from the WeatherFlow hub via UDP and Node-RED, so feel confident that the router is working as it should.
(I have about 80 devices on my network, so am very comfortable with Windows, Linux and IoT devices).
I find it odd that cronweatherflow finds the station devices and all the sensor names, but not the data?
The debug from the control panel in WD does not show any errors.
Let me know if there is any other debug information I can get.
it seems you had a sequence of ID I had not come across before
(if works with not using UDP, then we can work on using with UDP set next (might be a similar issue))
Brian.
Great work!
Thanks so much for taking a good look at it.
Working as expected. Data in the cron and data on the main weatherdisplay window.
Very excited.
Happy to test any other versions if you need.
Thanks again for your time. Greatly appreciate it.
The only problem I can find thus far is that the solar radiation (and UV) is not coming in correctly (With or without UDP ticked).
It is just reading 0.0 Wm/2 all the time. But the weatherflow app shows it correctly, as does my raw udp data into Node-RED.
Had to wait for the sun to come up (Im in California)…
Sadly, even with the UDP unchecked, there is no solar or UV readings.
I can see it in my local UDP stream via Node-RED and I can see the readings in my WeatherFlow Android app.
but uv and solar is working here with the udp not ticked
and using your ID (i.e the data comes from the weatherflow server)
so it should be working for you
with the latest update of cronweatherflow
(did you restart that after unsetting to use udp, as a test)
I am experiencing the same problem with Cronweatherflow v5.5 on Windows 10 64bit
It worked good for 1 day.
I had an abrupt power interruption due to an electrical storm (PC turned off without being shut down).
Then this thing started with “Can’t open local file for writing.”
I deleted the wetherflow.txt weatherflow0.txt and weatherflow2.txt from the C:\Program Files (x86)\wdisplay directory.
Still having same error.
I have placed that computer on a power backup.
I had to totally reinstall weather-display to get it working again.
Weather-display seemed to indicate that data was being received, but it was ignoring it.
At this point, without any explanation for what the issue is - I am hesitant to purchase Weather-display:
I fear that in the future, it can happen again (ex: if my power backup goes down).
There is so much to be configured in weather-display, and I am not looking forward to having to reimplement
each time the PC gets disrupted without being properly shut down.
Is the application still being actively developed, and are they seeing our postings here?
