SDR Loop Interval

[Kenny Stier]

I finally got Belchertown + MQTT working. I would like to increase the Loop Interval so that MQTT updates the page more often than every five minutes (without regenerating the page).

Only problem is, I'm using the SDR driver to get data from my Acurite 5in1 station, and I can't find anywhere in the SDR driver where I can set the loop packet interval. Is this just a missing feature in the driver, or can it be accomplished via other means?

the sdr driver will emit data as fast as your sensors send it.

i don't know how the internals of belchertown works, but if you are using the weewx-mqtt uploader, then you can set the binding to loop for uploading mqtt data.

look at the options for weewx-mqtt:

That was it, thanks so much! Once I set binding = loop in my MQTT addon settings, it works great.
