Vp2 soil sensors = WD not responding

one problem is that meteobridge is not tied to being just for Davis VP
i.e it works with other hardware as well

WD should though be picking up the extra sensor data that it does provide

what I need to make is that with the meteobridge selected, the Davis extra sensor screen will get updated to show the extra sensor data that is coming through from the meteobridge

Brian, if you need to do some testing and access to a Meteobridge connected to a VP2 with similar configuration, leaf wetness, and soil. Just send me a PM and I will configure access

I even thought about doing an uninstall, removing everything wd etc and installing again. Maybe there is something corrupt. But I don’t know my registration key. Just a thought…I guess that’s why I am here

do you mean you have the same issue Brientim?
(if so that would be great if you could do that )

No, however I haven

try a new .zip update re the extra davis settings not being remembered

tested and the update retains the configuration and now displays extra sensors after restart

Did the update. All settings stayed after restarting. Soil temps showed up. WD still seems a bit laggy. Might be my laptop. Let me get a new laptop and I will report back. Thanks

what I should do is have the data gathered by a separate cron program
I can do that, and just need a tester
(or even better have someone make their meteobridge available via port forwarding)

I have a busy day with my daughter

Hello,

I have the same problem as in the first post.
I have a vp2plus connected witch meteobridge, I set in WD the ip of meteobrigde and it’s works great.
only the extra sensors (soil) does not work, it’s only works if I select a davis station type as well than I can see it in davis extra sensor view, but the data are not logged (I need it for my website).
also after restart WD the station type is uncheked.

If you needed I can make my meteobrigde available.

Hi
ah
now I understand better
WD is not handling or expecting that data, as its not thinking its a Davis station
I can fix that :slight_smile:
you will need to test…

it would be great, I’m ready to test :slight_smile:

Hi Brian,

I did soms test, now I can see it in davis extra sensor view.
but the data is still not saved/logged in extra sensor graph, clientraw, daily high/low.

I set on station type to use soil temp1 as extra temp 1 and soil temp 2 as extra temp 3.

I did soms screenshot of my problem

try another update

and see if a few more things working

no change with this update

Hi Brian,

no solution?

there should have been some improvements
what is currently now not working?

Brian,
what I want is to use the vp soil sensor 1 as extra sensor 1 and vp soil sensor2 as extra sensor 3, but it does not work.
to be able to use it on my website and also to see the graphics in WD.

if you need you can have access to my MB.

I did today some test with meteohub and there the vp sensors works great.
