Acurite Atlas

I'm having trouble configuring a Acurite-Atlas as rtl_433 default output is in SI units and the sdr.py is expecting US units(for the Atlas)

If I tell rtl_433 to use customaryunits then that breaks my Towers recording data...

Is there a config fragment I'm missing someplace?

Thanks

Tom

hi tom,

could you send sample rtl_433 output from each of your sensors?

also, could you post the command you use to invoke rtl_433, and the rtl_433 version you are using?

some of the packet handlers in sdr.py already handle metric or imperial units. i might do that for the acurite sensors as well (not just 5in1).

Hi Matthew,

Would you consider me sending a pull request handling both cases?

I already have my version that works with metric units that I modified.

(your current version handles Imperial)

Thanks

okay Pull Request Submitted...

I need to review the other Acurite Sensors and add the same logic if it makes sense.
