Thanks for the response Brain, I am trying to write some of my own software in JAVA. The only details that I could get from Rainwise was that I could use the status.xml to interrogate the IP-100 . This returns a unformated set off data of current temps, pressure, wind speed, direction, rainfall, along with the max/ mins. I currently capture the data and merge it with a custom CSS FILE and display to my computer. It's a winter project that I am working on for fun.( I am retired and using this to pass some time.) I would like to find out how the dew point is handled for one thing, lookup, calculation, etc. I have a Mac, so I am not finding much software out there. But I really purchased the weather station to write my own programs. It's coming along, got the communications down, now I need to workout the details to manipulate data to some visual graphics for display, data logging and ploting.
