Airlink shows only current value while all have been configured

[moppedhausi]

Good day.

I've been trying CUtil for a few days.
My website: https://wetter-willich.de/vantage/CUtils/
I'm stuck with one problem:

It should look like this:

airlink3.JPG

This is how it looks for me:

airlink4.JPG

The 2.hr, 3 hr and the 24 hr values are wrong.

Does it have something to do with this system info:
WLL Stats for channel :
WLL DavisReceptionPercent: **Web tag error, tag starting: <#DavisReceptionPercent tx**
WLL TxRssi: **Web tag error, tag starting: <#DavisTxRssi tx**
Number of missed data packets: **Web tag error, tag starting: <#DavisTotalPacketsMissed tx**
Number of times the console resynchronised with the transmitter: **Web tag error, tag starting: <#DavisNumberOfResynchs tx**
Longest streak of consecutive packets received: **Web tag error, tag starting: <#DavisMaxInARow tx**
Number of packets received with CRC errors: **Web tag error, tag starting: <#DavisNumCRCerrors tx**
The transmitter battery condition: **Web tag error, tag starting: <#txbattery channel**

Hi Wilfried,

Thanks for using CUtils. I'll try to answer your questions:

1. First the issue of the System Info errors. Those errors have nothing to do with the AirLink table not showing the wanted values. In WLL you have to give the transmitter (Tx) which is sending the data. I do not know a lot about this Davis device but I assume you did not configure this in the cumulusutils.ini file. See the wiki. You nee to have a line e.g. Tx=1 if you did configure your transmitter as 1. Please note that you need a pro subscription to be able to access the statistics!
2. The table configuration is a bit strange: the charts show that all lines have been configured but they do not show in the table. It looks like the realtime for the airlink works fine and has all the values. So the question is why the table is not complete? I think you configured the airlink module for only the raw data which creates the table you see. Then you configured the UserAskedData run for all lines possible. The UserAskedData run then generates the JSON with all data and the chart does display all data available. The table however does not adjust automatically you need to run the AirLink command again. So:
   1. Verify you configured:
      WantToSeeNow=true
      WantToSeeNowCast=true
      WantToSee1hr=true
      WantToSee3hr=true
      WantToSee24hr=true
      in the [AirLink section]
   2. Run again:

      Code: Select all

      utils/bin/cumulusutils.exe AirLink

   Verify the the result in the website and please post the logfile here if things are still not as wanted.

Regards,

Many thanks for your help.

Where can I see how I configured the WLL?

I entered it like this:

Code: Select all

[SysInfo]
CMXport=8998
ReportWidth=700
Tx=1

That's in the log file:

Where can I see how I configured the WLL?

Seriously, I have no idea. As I said I don't know the device but maybe somebody else (@PaulMy, @mcrossley, @mapantz...) can tell you how. If they don't reply here, try the main CMX forum. But the stats are showing OK now!

Wrt the generation of the AirLink module I am currently without solution. It is a big question mark to me. It seems as if you generate the module for only the current values and then you generate the data for all possible lines. Could you post the complete cumulusutils.ini you use (as a file)?

[moppedhausi]

Ok,

cumulusutils.ini

Hi,

Yes, I have a Pro subscription.
Where can I see how I configured the WLL?

See attached for my settings...
Do both your AL and WLL show in the Weatherlink APP? Are the Network settings Online (green checkmark)?

I currently have my AirLink in my den as I had a power plug failure where it had been placed outside until a couple of days ago.

CMX with WiFiLogger http://komokaweather.com/cumulusmx/index.html

Enjoy,

Can't find anything wrong with my CumulusMX configuration.
What I noticed is that the airlinkrealtime.txt file is there, but the extrasensorsrealtime.txt file is created but is empty.

[HansR]

Ok,
cumulusutils.ini

Thanks.
I see you have

Code: Select all

StandAloneModule=true

Please set that to false (its default value)
This parameter has the website with the AirLink module activated. That is not a standalone module. The stand alone is a feature for if you build your own website. But as far as I know nobody uses that and so far it has never been put to the test.

However I ran cumulusutils with your inifile and that should generate additional code in the file airlink.txt (containing the code for the that module) however, that code is not in the airlink.txt which I find on your site.

My conclusion is that you generate CUtils with another inifile.
Do you use two locations perhaps e.g. one for testing and one for operational?

Anyway: the inifile you supplied is not the one used to generate the airlink.txt on your site.
Otherwise it is inexplicable.

It looks good, true.
extrasensorsrealtime.txt should not contain anything because you don´t have Extra Sensors, it should not be there anyway maybe it is because you experimented a bit. That does not really matter. The AirLink is an extraordinary extra sensors and has a whole configuration of its own.

[HansR]

And I split the post to a topic of its own, this is not really a beginners topic but seems to go deeper.

Anyway: the inifile you supplied is not the one used to generate the airlink.txt on your site.
Otherwise it is inexplicable.

Another argument for my conclusion is that in the cumulusutils.ini you posted, ExtraSensors are defined but they don't show on your site

To use the ExtraSensors module it is compulsory to use the ChartsCompiler.
Please read the wiki for both modules.

When activating the ChartsCompiler you must rerun

Code: Select all

utils/bin/cumulusutils.exe website

[HansR]

And a final effect that you will see, which came to my mind after sleeping over it, is that because the ExtraSensors module requires the ChartsCompiler cumulusutils will no doubt fail the moment it cannot find the CutilsCharts.def file. An effect of this will be that no new files will be transferred to your website server.

To get a quick start, please copy from the distribution the file CutilsCharts-default-for-use.def to your utils directory and rename it to CutilsCharts.def. Then rerun

Code: Select all

utils/bin/cumulusutils.exe website

Please post the complete logfile when done.

This may be even the single action which could solve your problems so please do this first before anything else.

Yes Hans, I have 2 additional sensors.
One without sun protection at 2 meters and a floor sensor at +5cm.
In the cumulusutils.ini I have now set it to false.
