Title: Weather Monitor II and wdisplay
Post by: raypfaff on June 04, 2019, 04:36:25 PM
Oldie but a goodie, I've had a Davis WMII since 1998.  The unit's still working fine, but I'm afraid the laptop I'm using WeatherLink on will probably die off sooner.  I have a Linux laptop I'm trying to migrate to.  I used picocom, connected to the WM using 2400 baud over /dev/ttyUSB0 and if I issue a 'LOOP' command I get data back.  I've installed wdisplay, went through the setup and it _seems_ to work... other than all of the data shows as '0'.  I know that this is a pretty broad request.  I'm just trying to figure out what I should do next to debug the problem.
