Weatherlink software to Cumulus?

[mcrossley]

MX only works with the v2 API, but afaik the v2 API can access all station types? It certainly has them all in the v2 sensor catalog.

Thanks Mark,
I have now used the APIv2 key and secret, and CMX found and listed some station ID's so I could find the correct one. CMX is running but no data on local dashboard or logs. I think the data coming from WL.com is ok

as converting what is in that data from F and MPH to what is on my other CMX in C and KMH is valid.

There is an error in the Latest error

Attached is MXdiags file.

I tried it both as the WL.com set at Pro and then back set as Basic. It seems to be the same either way, download data, but no data in CMX.

Enjoy,

Paul, thank you for your findings in this issue as well.

Like you, my dashboard is not populating data and is instead showing 0s. The software is picking up the data from the API call as it can be seen in the logs.

Best,
Zach

Found the problem, Davis for some reason is sending the current data within an array structure, even though there is ever only one value. All the other non-VP2 sensors they just send the data without the array.
