Hmmm, not many votes......don't let that disuade you from doing this Steve!!

No, I won't. There are quite a number of people who have emailed me in recent times who may not have seen this. As soon as I've knocked 1.9.1 into shape, this is definitely next on the list.

Actually, I'll probably extend the 1.9.1 beta period for quite a bit longer, so I may start adding WMR100/200 into that, rather than waiting for it to be stable. It will make testing the WMR100/200 changes more interesting :lol:

HI Steve

It's a long time (almost 2 years) since I checked in to the Sandaysoft website and forum, although I have been using Cumulus with one of the cheap Watson Weather Stations for that 2 year period and your software has been solid and reliable. I recently decided to upgrade to a better unit which should provide more accurate readings so I have purchased an Oregon Scientific WMR-200 station and now realised that Cumulus doesn't yet support it. I have cast my vote now though having read the news.

If I can be of any help in testing please let me know. I intend making a small donation after I have written this. Thank you for your efforts. I don't mind helping out if the software isn't yet stable if that will assist in your work.

Regards
Phil, North Yorkshire.

Yes I give my NEW Vote to WMR 200. Oregon will use this station ultimately to replace the 918

Yes, I’m also waiting for the WMR 200 support in Cumulus 1 or 2.
So that would be great news.

I too would love to see support for WMR100/WMR200's.

I have been playing with Cumulus (using WUHU to generate a CSV file in sudo Easyweather format which somehow Cumulus can understand), and I like the look and feel of the main screen, and most of the data is there it seems.

So much so that based a weather web page on the Cumulus console using the Cumulus tags. Pitty that the Easyweather file can only be read every minute, real time would be nice. But for that I guess I will just have to wait for native WMR100 support.

If you need ALPHA/BETA testers keep me in mind.

Regards

Is the WUHU -> Easyweather CSV format a standard feature of WUHU or something you have put together?

Nice.

I just have a bit more work to do on 1.9.1, then I'll be starting on the WMR100/200 support.

Mark,

I created an export template in WUHU to simulate as many of the Easyweather fields as I could, which is then saved as an easyweather dat file, which is read by Cumulus.

Regards

To make Cumulus read realtime change in easyweather.dat would be an awesome thing.

Code:

if easyw.dat new_timestamp newer than old_timestamp then import newdata else do nothing

That would make Cumulus universal weather software, i guess :oops:

I've moved the discussion of the easyweather.dat file to its own thread.

hi, i have WMR88 and it's seem to have the same protocole of the WMR100, can i hope that the next version of cumulus should be compatible
sorry for my english, i 'm french

steve · **Posted:** Tue Jan 18, 2011 11:15 pm

I have stopped adding new facilities to 1.9.1 now, I just need to get as many bugs as possible out, then I will start on 1.9.2 with the WMR88/100/200 support.

steve · **Posted:** Sun Apr 24, 2011 8:53 am

I have just started work on this. I now see that the WMR100 does not in fact have the same protocol as the WMR200, which is a bit annoying. They're quite similar though. And the way the logger works on the WMR200 is quite different from the way the logger works on other stations which Cumulus supports, and doesn't really fit very well with the way Cumulus works...

mcrossley · **Posted:** Sun Apr 24, 2011 9:39 am

Oh, that is bad news Steve. Do you plan to implement anything then?
