Weather

Finally managed to figure out how to connect the Sheevaplug up to the N96GY weather station. The Weather station is similar to the WH1080 and I managed to install the pywws software which then uploads the data to Underground Weather. One thing to note is that if you get a problem with the comms between the station and the software and it gives a “magic number” error then clear the memory on the station. I found that my station had recorded some data out of range or with all FFs in the memory, on clearing the memory it picked up real data and connected correctly.
I can´t quite get the graphs working on my website but will have another go later. I also tried the wview software but couldn´t get it connected. It kept saying magic number error, this could have been the same problem as the pywws software but I haven´t re-checked it yet.
The pywws software works quite well but you have to copy the templates to the correct directory that you define in the weather.ini. I am still getting an error on the graphs as it can´t find some files so I either have not copied something correctly or I need to generate some templates.
All in all the pywws software is excellent and well done to the http://code.google.com/p/pywws/ programmer (must check out who it is then update this).
