AWEKAS data transmission

Post by AWEKAS »

I have a question about one of our users for data transmission with Colubus to our Weather Network AWEKAS. ( www.awekas.at) Is there a reason to generate a datafile like Davis Weather Link to send live data to our server.
You can find a datafile description at our forum: http://www.awekas.at/forum/viewtopic.php?t=229
please use version 4 like Weather Link. (all other will be not further developed).
It would be nice if any Columbus user can help.

The link you posted has an example which is a broken link...

It is going to: http://www.bramptonweather.co.uk/awekas_wl.htm

which doesn't exist.

I created a script called awekas.php which outputs a Version 4 Weather Link like datafile based on what your forum article is showing...

That format is supposed to be:

Code: Select all

############################################################################

You can access the script via:

http://cumulus.tnetweather.com/awekas.php

I setup an account with the name of: tnetweather
on Awekas to have it pull the file to see how the format works.

I've cleared the errors that I was seeing when I first set it up. It is now showing up as valid data in the test section.

I think I started to add AWEKAS support some time ago and had some queries which I was having difficulty getting answers to.

I have been uploading to AWEKAS for some time now. Steve sorted it for me but I cant remember how I did it. As it stands at the moment I use my weatherlink programme to upload the file. But I could be wrong, it as a (wl) folder.
