Extra Sensors Not Showing With Latest Build

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Extra Sensors Not Showing With Latest Build

Post by The Dalek Hunter »

One of my stations is an Ecowitt GW2000 Wittboy with three WH31 extra Temp/Humidity sensors and a WH45 CO2 sensor.

Updated yesterday to the latest build.

The output from these appears in the Dashboard but does not appear in the charts in either Trends or Select A Graph on the website.

I have set them all to visible in Display Options.

When I try to select them it just says "Loading" but never does

Assuming you use version 3.24.0 b3231 (If not, please post the logfile with debug logging on)

... Did you activate the datafiles?

Internet Settings=>Interval Configuration=>Normal Interval Settings=>Graph File Settings

Change the descriptions in strings.ini (you can do that from the interface now in b3231) : Settings=>Locale Strings

I'll have to leave the SelectaChart to @Mark, I have no idea which/how the datafiles are selected here and don't know the chart technique.
So leave this until Mark checks in.

I confirm select-a-chart for extra sensors is broken :( Sorry.

I don't have any extra sensors, so I'll go and invent some data to find the cause...

I confirm, drawing any additional sensors does not work in Select-a-chart. Both on the computer and on the website.

Hmm, OK, it is working in the dashboard for me afaics, but the code was not ported over to the web site select-a-chart.

Here is an updated js file for the default web site. Again, it seems to work for me, so could some else try it please?

Assuming I did it right it is not working for me from the dashboard. PM2.5 shows but no extra temp or hum from my 2 sensors. Works OK on Recent Charts though.

It's not working in the local dashboard for me. And I have just uploaded the updated js file to my web page, and it still doesn't work there for me.

Also, not sure if related or even meant to be missing, but on the website the items for the WS45 CO2 sensor are not even shown in the drop down list under the Select a graph (it is showing the graph ok in the Trends Charts).

Sorry Mark,

but the new file didn't change anything. Charts still don't work.

The list of sensors works, all are visible. However, when selected, you can see that the axes of the plot change, as if everything is happening in the background. However, neither the legend nor the chart are visible.

You can see what it looks like on this page - https://davis.pogodarybnik.pl/selectachart.htm
