WMR300 issue **solved**
« on: October 09, 2017, 01:18:12 AM »
I received an Oregon Scientific WMR300A weather station today. It replaces a Acurite weather station which was showing its age but everything worked. I'm having a problem with the WMR300. The wind speed and direction are not making it to Meteobridge. I've tried resetting both the weather station as well as Meteobridge without any luck. Is this a common issue or just a problem with mine?

Thanks!

Are you using the mandatory USB hub?

WMR300 is tested to work fine with wind speed and direction, but Meteobridge waits until out door temp shows up as well. This is because it wants to compute wind chill, where both (wind plus temp) are needed. In Meteobridge wind chill is a feature of the wind sensor. When no temp data there, wind data is also regarded incomplete and not reported.

Yes I’m using a USB hub. Indoor, outdoor and rain are all registering. Wind is the only one that isn’t working.
