Extra Sensors

Post by sooty »

I see that adding data from the VP extra sensors has been on the enhancement list for a while. I have a 6345 Leaf & Soil
Moisture/Temperature station (but only using the temp channels) so this is a roadblock to me using Cumulus. I understand this is probably not easy to do but is there any plan to add this functionality?

It's not actually that hard to do - it's in Cumulus 2 already (though incomplete, like everything else in C2). Whether I add it to Cumulus 1 depends on where I go next; I'm thinking of going back to Cumulus 2 again.

OK, good luck with the 1 or 2 decision. I see Ambient is now promoting Cumulus so hopefully that helps with the donation issue.

May I add my request for extra sensor support in Cumulus? I have a requirement to display/record values from the 2nd temp and humidity sensors.

Thanks in advance
