From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Davis webtags

Post by HansR »

I am using the Davis Vantage webtags to supply the systeminfo on my website (see result here). I am using these:

<#DavisTotalPacketsReceived>
<#DavisTotalPacketsMissed>
<#DavisMaxInARow>
<#DavisNumCRCerrors>
<#DavisFirmwareVersion>
<#DavisNumberOfResynchs>
<#battery>
<#txbattery>

The firmware is 1.73 ( so it is quite old). I notice the zero values of the counters. Do they actually work? I noticed some sites where they apparently give values, but not with me. Is it possible that these conditions do not occur (running 70+ days now)? Or should I see some values (maybe not for the CRC but definitely for total packets received, I think). The Wiki claims they should work with MX.

So why don't I see the numbers?
