New quake-json.php script

Hi there. I've been out a while from the amateur meteorology, but with the purchase of a cabled Davis Vantage Pro2 Plus I'm back. :D I've been updating slowly, because in just one year there were many good improvements, Ken never stops! I had put this question in an American forum of meteorology, bu...

Re: Converting Daytime FARS to 24-hour FARS?

You should be able to pick up a 2V PSU from any good electronics store in your country. If you can only find the more popular 3V models you can put a diode in-line with '+' connection which will drop to around 2V. 3V is definitely too high and the fan will spin like a jet engine. Diode 1N5408 is pe...

Re: Converting Daytime FARS to 24-hour FARS?

I converted mine a little while ago and there are two routes you can take. 1/ you can either purchase all the parts required from Archer Trading or 2/ Save yourself a lot of work, as yours is a cabled version, is it possible for you to connect a " 2 volt " PSU to the fan? I went with opti...

Re: Converting Daytime FARS to 24-hour FARS?

I there Ray (how long... :) ) and John. I rise up this topic because I also bought a few weeks ago one Davis Vantage Pro2 Plus cabled weather station, and the brand offers only the Daytime FARS shield for this version of Davis. So I had to buy the Daytime FARS. However I believe that there will be a...

Re: WH3080 solar readings

Thanks Steve!

I have arrived to my house now and discovered that we already have a new version of Cumulus with the 'calibration' setting for UV! :) :clap:

I will test, starting tomorrow, this feature.

Re: WH3080 solar readings

I know you didn't; I was asking if you thought it needed one. Thank you for your reply. I apologize then, I thought that you were affirm! :oops: Hi I'm not sure if a lux level can ever be reliably converted to w/m2 due to the scattering of higher frequencies of radiation and some of which are conve...

Re: WH3080 solar readings

Do you think it needs a 'multiplier' setting as well as an offset? I'm thinking a multiplier probably doesn't make much sense for UV index, but I could be wrong... Steve, I did not say that needs a multiplier. It needs Offsets (Add / Subtract). I agree with you, a multiplier that does not make sens...

Re: WH3080 solar readings

I can put in a 'calibration' setting for UV like the others... In this new release of Cumulus: the "CumulusSetup_beta.v1.9.2_build999", you have add this features? No, I was just fixing the bug. I do not understand what this means: "- Cater for UV values of 255 from WH3080" It m...

Re: WH3080 solar readings

I have already installed the new version that corrects the UV values ​​when they are bigger than 12, but now a new problem arises. If the station loses contact with the UV sensor (happened this morning), Cumulus interprets as UV = 16! Is there any chance to correct this? Ah, yes, it sends FF when t...

Steve what you can not do!? :mrgreen: What a great work that you have here! :o Just to serve as a comparison, here I leave you two UV graphics from weather stations near mine: http://img814.imageshack.us/img814/6756/uvwuc...

Re: WH3080 solar readings

Ah, yes, it sends FF when that happens. I had code in for that, but I've lost it because of the new code - I'll fix it. Thanks Steve! :clap: Another request, if possible... I already have the new solar module and now have a more correct behavior of the UV value. The problem is that the readings are...

Re: WH3080 solar readings

Sorry about that, I gave you incorrect information. The LuxToWM2 setting has to go in the [Solar] section in cumulus.ini. Ahhhh ok! :D I found it strange, but you 're the master. So I do not say anything! :mrgreen: I will test it and then tell you something. I take this opportunity to put another q...

Re: WH3080 solar readings

I have two Davis weather stations, near to mine (about 10km / 6.2 miles) . Their values ​​are these, for yesterday So that's making your theoretical max look pretty good, assuming you had bright sunshine. So you probably just need to reduce that LuxtoWM2 value by quite a bit. You've got a peak of a...

Re: WH3080 solar readings

It looks like the new code isn't working, but I can't see anything wrong with it. Are you sure you're using the latest build? :oops: No, it wasn't! I just finished installed it. Let's see how it behaves. Thanks! It's hard to say; unless you have some other data to compare with, you can't know wheth...
