cumulus files

[notfree]

i'm building an arduino WS ..

but i dont know where is the specific file that need to be update ...

im using python and arduino

i tried to update realtime.txt ... it didnt work ...

You will either have to emulate a station which works with Cumulus, or generate an easyweather.dat file - http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/EasyWeather_Format

what if i want to connect directly ?

[steve]

If you want to connect Cumulus to your weather station to read data directly from it, you will have to emulate a weather station that Cumulus works with.

#i made it in python .... just execute enjoy , and thank you for the fast response .

As Steve said, you need to emulate a protocol or write an easyweather.dat formatted file.
Werk_AG managed to do both options with the WeatherDuino. He might not mind if you look at this code, but it would be polite to ask him first

See his forum here:

It looks like you are trying to generate an easyweather.dat file. I don't propose to look at your code to see if you are doing it correctly, but assuming you are, then you can just configure Cumulus to read that file by choosing the correct station type ("Easyweather.dat") and telling Cumulus where your file is. Have you done that, and is it working?

it work for me ...

Werk_AG was my inspiration...

next step will be to use hes lib
