WMR200A - Does Cumulus record those additional channels?

Post by Truman »

I've the read the post, yet not really sure if this was ever answered.

Oregon Scientific WMR200A

With this model you can have more than one sensor (In my case an additional temperature sensor). Does Cumulus record those additional channels/reading? That is, read my additional temperature sensor and pass it through to the web interface? If so what variables do I need to be looking at?

If this is not possible at this time would any upcoming modification to the software allow such.

Thanks for the help.

The 1.9.3 beta version does, yes. See https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7341

Steve,

Another question in regards to additional channels.
My WMR200 console is located in my home office (close to PC for data transfer). The indoor temp is often way to high, however correct in the small office, but not reflecting a "normal" indoor temp.
I've bought an additional temp/humidity sensor from Oregon Sc which will be located in the family room (more representative for "indoor temp").
Is it possible to overwrite the "indoor" temp console reading by means of this additionl sensor (channel 2), or do I simply have to read the temp from family room and use "calibration" for intemp to have correct adjustments.

thanks,

Arthur

I'd have to add code to allow an extra sensor to override the indoor temperature. But Cumulus is about weather, so I don't consider indoor readings high priority.

Thanks Steve,

Currently I'm using the "calibration" in Cumulus Config and put it at -2.0 C for indoor (according Fam Room Temp). This reflects a reasonable acceptable indoor temp!!

Cheers,

Arthur
