WeeWX Station Type.

[Steve Shuff]

Hi All,

 I wish to change the station type from Vantage to Simulator, Can someone explain how to do this please, I have moved house and setup my Raspberry Pi but my station need collecting from my old house and I just want to temporarily run Simulator to ensure everything is alright with the lat/long etc changes I made to config file .Thanks.

I think simply changing to "Simulator" and a restart will do. But backup your database before and restore it, before you connect the real station again.

Hi, thanks for your reply.  I assume that is done in the weewx.conf file ?

Use the wee_config utility with the --reconfigure option.
