WH3080 questions for site
Sorry to bother everyone.
Still havent managed to get the new station up yet (weather sucks), i was wondering out of all the following webtags, which ones i can use on the site that can be drawn from this station
<#SunshineHours> Hours of sunshine so far today
<#YSunshineHours> Total hours of sunshine yesterday
<#CurrentSolarMax> Current theoretical maximum solar radiation
<#ET> Today's evapotranspiration. Note that Fine Offset stations with solar sensors do not supply an evapotranspiration value, and by a quirk of the way the tag gets its value, for those stations this tag gives the light level in Lux.
<#UV> Current UV index
<#SolarRad> Current solar radiation

Re: WH3080 questions for site

Re: WH3080 questions for site
Well apart from currently, we do get a hell of a lot of sunshine a lot of the time, and with views like this I can put up with a bit of rain

Re: WH3080 questions for site
Ok, looks like the weather is starting to change a little, so i want to get the station up, and the code done for the website, this is what i have so far with the code, not being a brilliant coder, I need some help finishing it off
<tr class="td_temperature_data">
<td>Sunshine Hours</td>
<td><#SunshineHours> hours</td>
<td>Current Maximum Solar Radiation</td>
<td><#CurrentSolarMax> <#???????></td>
</tr>
<tr class="td_temperature_data">
<td>Lux Level</td>
<td<#ET>nbsp;????????;</td>
<td>Current UV Level</td>
<td><#UV> <#??????></td>
</tr>
<tr class="td_temperature_data">
<td>Sunshine Hours</td>
<td><#SunshineHours> hours</td>
<td>Current Maximum Solar Radiation</td>
<td><#CurrentSolarMax> <#???????></td>

<tr class="td_temperature_data">
<td>Lux Level</td>
<td<#ET>nbsp;????????;</td>

Re: WH3080 questions for site
The units for the theoretical max radiation are W/m²robynfali wrote:<td><#CurrentSolarMax> <#???????></td>
Lux units are... Lux. You might want to change it to say something like "Light level" rather than "Lux level".<td>Lux Level</td>
<td<#ET>nbsp;????????;</td>
The UV figure has no units, it's just an index from 0 to 12.<td><#UV> <#??????></td>

Re: WH3080 questions for site
I am getting a UV of 12 (very high) and a light level of 299klux
These sound a bit wrong considering its quite overcast here

Re: WH3080 questions for site
On the console, i cant find where to read it in cumulus, the lux level (after reading through here) seems ok, just the UV one seems wrong

Tick 'display solar/extra data' in the display settings.robynfali wrote:On the console, i cant find where to read it in cumulus,
Unless the lux level isn't reading 299k now, it's definitely wrong; that's the maximum value.the lux level (after reading through here) seems ok, just the UV one seems wrong
