Airlink

Just added a airlink to my growing collection of weather devices.

I use a vp2 for cumulus but also have weather link live module.

Now I thought I set the station up as an individual but looking at the weatherlink website I've seem to have set it up as part of the weatherlink live. It appears in the bulletin and there aren't any separate entries for it under device id or weatherlink api.

Is there anyway I can get this to display under Cumulusmx as I don't want to switch from the vp2 to weatherlinklive at this moment in time.

At the moment it's undetected.

Or is a case of resetting the station up as an individual device?

The airlink is working as I said however cumulus is moaning about missing Airlink API secret
When I go to weatherlink.com the airlink shows up on the bulletin and data however there isn't an api only one for weatherlinklive and one for davis vp2.
Is this a bug I haven't upgraded to build 3107 yet just on the previous version.

If you have added your AirLink as a node to your existing WLL then you should tick that option in the AirLink configuration and it will use the WLL API details. Otherwise you are telling Cumulus that your AirLink has been added to wl.com as an independent station with its own API details.

Quick question. Doing that wont mess up the feed from the vp2?

If you have added the AirLink to a VP2 station, then you should not tick that option!

I'll clarify the wording in the next to release. But that option only applies if your main station is a WLL.

If your main station is a VP2, then leave it as standalone, but you need to enter your VP2 WL.com API details into your AirLink config.

It will not affect your VP2 data which is all obtained locally.
