Just been working my way through setting this up, but am I right in saying I can not automatically upload with the WeatherLink software that comes with Davis weather stations ? All I can do is create some csv file to update when I can ?

There are unofficial ways of doing it automatically, for example by using a utility that reads for example the download.txt file that WL can be set to create at regular intervals, process the data and then upload it WOW. You'll need to dig around on the web for someone else who has created a suitable utility (I've got my own version but it's not really in a state that would be useful to anyone else I'm afraid).

John Dann www.weatherstations.co.uk Thanks John, and good to hear from you. How do I create the correct file for upload with WeatherLink as this doesn't seem to work either ? Keith (Southend) |

IIRC WOW can read these files directly. Or are you talking about something different? JGD |

You're not still using 4.x or eg 5.1 or 5.2. (Latest is 6.0.3, but anything later than 5.2 should be OK - the wlk format changed as of v5.2.) JGD |
