Acurite inHumidity

[buck...@gmail.com]

Hi There,

Can anyone point me in the right direction to adding inHumidy to the weewx ui?

I've tried adding $current.inHumidity to the skin's index.html.tmpl. The result is "n/a" so I'm not sure weewx is collecting (or even is able to collect) that parameter.

AcuRite 06014RM on Raspberry Pi, and inside humidity is of course displayed on the base station.

Insights appreciated,

Tom

I'm pretty sure it isn't included on the USB data. I added a separate humidity sensor to get the data.

That's too bad, the data point's "right there"!

What sensor did you add and is there any trick/guide to getting a second device connected to weewx that I need to know about?

Cheers,

Tom

Well you might start by sharing which driver and extension(s) you are trying to use, as well as their config file snippets and some log exerpts.

I built one using an ESP8266 and the Arduino tools with mqtt. I wrote a simple Python script to subscribe to the mqtt topic and write the results to a text file. I hacked the accurite driver to read that text file and put that value in Weewx record. 

Probably not the best way.

Acurite driver 0.4. (2014)

Notes (in the driver file) about the Acurite(s) are that inside humidity IS published, but there's also a 

    "FIXME: decode inside humidity" comment,

and no other reference to inHumidity.

I've located one reference to an updated driver 0.5, but can't see where that's available, but that thread noted no inHumidity there as well.

So maybe it's possible, but I don't have a ton of time to dig right now...

Cheers & Thanks
