Driver for ECOWITT WS2910 weather station
« on: September 27, 2024, 12:57:42 PM »
Hi - sorry this may have been answered somewhere else but a search came back with nothing. This is my first post so please be gentle. I have an ECOWITT WS2910 weather station which appears to be a Fine Offset family clone which includes the Froggitt WH3000SE and the Ambient WS-2902A/B amongst others. I looked in the driver list and could see nothing that matched any of the named units above. I don't doubt I'm looking in the wrong place or just not understanding the protocol. Could someone point me in the right direction?

Thank you G.Brown. Perhaps I'm asking the wrong question. Can the ECOWITT WS2910 weather station be run using WEEWX? Why I asked for the driver was that the web page showing me how to connect the system to WEEWX told me to choose a driver. Perhaps that website was wrong or I just misunderstood. If my system can be run on WEEWX - perhaps someone could point me to a better website detailing how to connect. I'm an experienced Linux user - so quite capable of installing via terminal code.

I'd say yes.  The sensor looks like a WS69 which appears to be supported in the driver, but the WS2910 console doesn't appear explicitly in the code.  It's a little unclear how many other sensors you can add to that console but it sure looks like it should work.  If you have questions the weewx-user google group is where you should actually ask.  The driver author hangs out there.

Thanks Vince. I thought I might be looking in the wrong place - but this website came up first in my search for information. Ecowitt do have an app for phones but as I do everything from computer terminal - I wanted to explore that avenue. I will go to weewx-user group. Thank you all for your replies.
