Connecting a VAisala WMT-52 ultrasonic wind anemometer

Post by andrew.baker »

Hi

I have a need to add a Vaisaila WMT-52 anemometer to Cumulus for uploading to the web. This model is not listed as a supported device. Is there a way of modifying the configuration to allow me to add. This device can push out an ascii string or an NMEA 0183 msg format

cheers

In general, Cumulus only supports complete weather stations, not add-on devices, with two exceptions currently, neither of which are anemometers. You would need to make it look like a weather station. The easiest way would be to generate data in easyweather.dat format, but the results would not be good.
