Pressure as displayed in wconsole.php

[tmabell]

Using wconsole.php with Cumulus 1.9.4 the pressure reading is displayed with three places after the decimal. For example... 30.215 in

Is there a way to eliminate the thousandths place to just display it this way? 30.21 in
Thank you

I don't think there's an option in Cumulus 1 to reduce the number of decimal places for Davis stations (I can't remember and can't easily look at the code at the moment). I don't know what wconsole.php is, but I think your only option would be to modify the code to do what you want. Someone who knows what wconsole.php is may be able to reply with something that's actually helpful to you.

It was a user contribution but I dn't know who the devolper is or how to reach him/her.

That Wiki article has author as David Jamieson, who is still a contributor, but I believe his JavaScript will simply output the figure as it appears in your realtime.txt file.
As far as I am aware, the simplest way in Javascript to implement your requirement is to multiply by 100, round that number, and then divide by 100.
Using jQuery library software as David does in WeatherConsole/wconsole.js (in code below where it says

Code: Select all

// DO NOT change anything below here.

) find :

Code: Select all

$("#pressure").html(rawdata[10]+" "+rawdata[15]);

and change to

Code: Select all

$("#pressure").html( (Math.round(100 * rawdata[10]) /100) +" "+rawdata[15]);

Thank you for the replies. Problem solved!

and change to

Code: Select all

$("#pressure").html( (Math.round(100 * rawdata[10]) /100) +" "+rawdata[15]);

Roughly, doesn't work for some edge cases. Try say 32.675 or 32.745.

A friend found that this works well:

Add this:
var newpress = Number(rawdata[10]).toFixed(2);

Change this:
$("#pressure").html(rawdata[10]+" "+rawdata[15]);

to this:
$("#pressure").html(newpress+" "+rawdata[15]);
