May 11 12:48:27 raspi-server-misc weewx[13000] ERROR weewx.engine: The archive interval in the configuration file (300) does not match the station hardware interval (60).
May 11 12:48:27 raspi-server-misc weewx[13000] INFO weewx.engine: Using archive interval of 60 seconds (specified by hardware)
This is something the MB can set on the console (Envoy) so I've changed this to 5 mins.
The output from wee_device --info looks correct to me (now)... other than the station type reporting as Vantage Pro 2....

So confirmed there. =/ I've inquired with the MB dev to see if we can be more specific. I think the MB emulates the LOOP protocol. Any chance we could get some (possibly hidden) option to force the station type in the Vantage driver? the biggest issue right now is weewx is expecting ET data since it's a Vantage Pro2, but not getting it.
For 2. I had the MB set, and therefore the console, set to 60 second record time. Which was overriding the 300 sec in weewx, so the "noise" was just 60 second record times vs the standard 300. Got that fixed by setting MB to set the console to 5 mins.
For 3. That makes sense. I set those to hardware rather than prefer. It is still set to use both, I guess I'm curious one over the other. Should I just use 2? 2 doesn't seem to include battery info. I do notice that with it set to "3" (both) sometimes when weewx does it's web render it doesn't have battery data (just Unknown) until the next time around when it apparently gets that info and fills it in. What's best practice here? Just use 2 and change the settings back to prefer_hardware and let weewx fill in the blanks?

Totally understood about not allowing forcing that value.
Would it be possible to allow setting $station.hardware to a manual value in weewx.conf (or a separate skins.conf or something)? Specifically allow setting and “override” value that’s just a string. So maybe not $station.hardware but $station.text and say “if defined, set that in skin, otherwise use $station.hardware”? Would give one less thing to keep track of when doing updates (even though, as you say, skins are not touched during upgrades).
Thanks very much for your time! Will give ET setting option a go.
