CRITICAL weewx.drivers.acurite: Cannot find USB device with VendorID=0x24c0 ProductID=0x0003 DeviceID=None

[Erik Plourde]

Hello

I've installed weewx on a RPi3b, connected to my Acurite display. 

I get this error in the log:

CRITICAL weewx.drivers.acurite: Cannot find USB device with VendorID=0x24c0 ProductID=0x0003 DeviceID=None

I'm not a programmer. I get around but things that may be obvious to some are not to me;-)

I'm supposed to be able to choose usb mode 4 on the display but I've been through the settings three times and cannot find that option.

Any thoughts ?

From Acurite site:

Weather Station models 06039/02064 and 01536/06056 - there is no USB Mode setting on the display. Simply open the PC Connect software and connect the Indoor Display to your computer using the supplied USB cable.

Weather Station models 01025, 01035, 01036, 01525 or 02032/06037 - before you connect the Indoor Display to your computer, from the SET menu on the Indoor Display, cycle through the settings to USB MODE or PC CONNECT MODE and then using the up arrow set to 3 and press SET to save the setting.

Thank you Rich. 

Guess I really need to install Acurite connect to a windows computer first to set this up.

All you need to do is connect the console to the RPI. Did you install "python3-usb" ?  See http://weewx.com/docs/setup.htm for prerequisites.

[Erik Plourde]

Ok. I thought I did...

I really went through the documentation but I’ll have another (more thorough) look tonight. 

Best regards
