Leaf wetness and soil temp issues

Post by ssell9889 »

I absolutely love this software. I am using at the University Ag Experiment Station I work on and where I run the cow herd and bull test station.
I need to be able to report the soil temp and leaf wetness to the other scientists here.

I cant seem to get it to send that data to wunderground.com and I cant find a way to post it either.

I have a vantage pro2 plus. Another issue is I keep getting a leaf temp reading? anyone know how I can turn that off and only get leaf wetness and soil temp?

Thanks a bunch!

Cumulus doesn't send those to WU. I think that perhaps I didn't revisit the WU protocol after I added support for those sensors. I'll have to have a look at how to add them - sending them isn't an issue, but it will need some configuration options to make sure that only valid sensors are sent.

It looks like a bug in the code, confusing soil and leaf temp sensors when processing archive data from the logger - I'll fix it.

I've fixed these issues in build 1095, which I've just uploaded. See the latest post in the 1.9.4 announcement thread for how to configure the uploads to WU.
