thanks, informative. So I assume that for every rain bucket tip, a packet is sent to the console (and meteobridge) and that the ISS itself determines they decay period. That actually makes sense because watching my manual rain gauge, it collect much faster than the the reported values at first, then starts to catch up after the storm/rain tapers off.
But what does meteobridge itself do between reporting periods to an external service? For example, with one minute reporting, if 3 trips occurred, would it report 0.03mm and then reset for the next period? Or is there some averaging taking place? Assuming the HTTP event was not successful, would the next event contained the missed trips or be lost (or included in the rain0rate averages)?
For mostly-precise, would it be better to collect the 15 minute averages?
