CR1000 datalogger
Jstx:
Santa Vaca, Audi,
That Campbell CR1000 datalogger looks like it's used with Campbell Scientific WX systems.
From looking at their website all their stuff looks to be 1st class pro equipment (I didn't know that), they even embed RM Young components in the systems.
Veeery nice stuff (et yer hearts out, Davis groupies :twisted:).
Not sure I want to know the pricetags (but I'm going to look, drool...).
I think I've seen this stuff on episodes of the TV series "Storm Chasers".
Everywhere I looked a little popup appeared offering to "Need help with configuring a system? Let our experts help.", so you might try them first; way above my paygrade.
It seems that there isn't an actual pdf manual for the WUHU program itself. But the WUHU homepage website I linked earlier has a 'Start here' button at the top. It leads to a lot of good installation info, tips, etc., on setting up and using the prog. I have an idea that you're trying to cobble together something that is fairly difficult but doable.
You can download lots of WUHU info and programs there (WUHU link in earlier post).
Here's a link to user "wuhu-software" right here on WXForum (from 2008, ten years ago) pertaining to the CR1000 and WUHU (you've been on that thread, may have missed it), he invites questions, but whether he's still active here I don't know:

Here is an old copy of the HeavyWeather v.2.0, installation manual. It has a lot of good serial/USB interfacing info, some of which you might find useful..
Which I think is what you're doing, with WUHU in place/instead of the HeavyWeather prog as a display-upload app. Using and setting up the CR1000 is a whole other thing, they have extensive documentation for it on the Campbell website.
-- file is too big, 4M, for WXForum -- This might be useful, send a PMsg here, could email I guess, I also have all the HW/wuhu zips and exe's, but can't load here.
Here is the newer-latest HeavyWeather manual version. Wireless and quite different from the old cabled interface, but still just a Com port connection setup:

Middle HW version:

Formatting of the HW "history.dat file" (old txt file):

HeavyWeather app is capable of handling some other PWS's, but mine is La Crosse, and they are very cagey about it; and never even mention WUHU. I think that I might have found how to make those two progs work together with my LaCrosse WS-2813 on my PC here on WXForum long ago, there is a La Crosse topic subforum, might be more on WUHU there. All of this is kind of a kludge (I think highly of HW and wuhu, they're bulletproof and not fussy once set up).
The Campbell website has reams of reference material available for all their equipment, including the CR1000 datalogger.
Since WUHU is already set up for the Campbell CR1000 option, things shouldn't be too hard to smooth out. I didn't see any Campbell ref to WUHU though with a cursory look.

Quote from their lowest end system:
"Overview
The WxPRO™ is an entry-level, research-grade weather station designed for a wide variety of environmental applications. This portable tripod station is suitable for both long-term and temporary deployments.
Designed for the budget-conscious researcher, this system is a lower-cost offering than the MetPRO™ while still maintaining the quality instrumentation expected from a Campbell Scientific solution. This system implements research-grade sensors, which are needed for defensible data in environmental research. Meteorological phenomena measured can be used to calculate many weather-related algorithms such as evapotranspiration, growing-degree days, wind chill, dew point, and other weather-related parameters.

Hi,
Thanks alot for your input, much appreciated :grin:
Yes the .dat file is highly configurable and i think/know it that i need to know.
Ive downloaded a .dat file from the wuhu group website, listed below.
I dont understand the wiring pinout mentioned on top of it, how to do that.
Ive run it on my datalogger but i get the number of fields error in Wuhu and cancelled all data updates because of that.
In Wuhu i dont have to use a .com port (it cant, i have just to select the cr1000 and the . Dat file), just a .dat file which the cr1000 can output as comma separate CSV file.
Here is the actual .dat file from the wuhu website:

Audi:
I posted on the Campbell forum about this.
But i dont get an answer, i think because campbell sell a device to connect to the cr1000 to internet.
So they wont answer such a question about how to upload to wu without their device.
Or is it of that i cant get it to work? I need that device?
I thought i just need a .dat file which Wuhu takes care of to upload to wu, wow etc.?
Audi:
Ideally i need a working .dat file from another Wuhu user with a cr1000 so i can run it on mine and adjust from there....
The cr1000 is connected with serial to usb on my pc.
Audi:
here is the actual log from wuhu.
and a pic from the campbell output options.
