Alecto WS 5500 weather station

Is there a way to share the plugin.py file of Xorfor? I presume this code doesn’t contain errors and I also presume that this code will create devices with English names?

This is not necessary anymore, in the history of this project in git, I see the latest version of Xorfor.

Yes, that's possible.
I have a refreshment every 60 seconds using the PWS plug in. I also use wheatear underground as a backup.

Still wondering how you use Weather Underground as backup?
You send PWS data to the Domoticz Xorfor plugin, but how do you send that data to WU?

That was also my question, but Huis1 explained me that you can use the app WS-View (I use WSView Plus) to send the data of your PWS to WU (tab Wunderground) AND that you can use the tab Customized to send the data also to Domoticz . This is working fine!

Oke, Tnx.

Since yesterday I have this error for the PWS plugin:

Anyone else having this too? I have already deleted the hardware and created it again, but no success.

There was a rain fall of -1800 mm yesterday and it looks like that triggered this error, but I can't find a fix to get it workin again so the weather data is being updated in Domoticz again.

Okay, nevermind.... The recharable batteries of the weather station died... After replacing them, all is working again.

Did you follow the instructions? Did you get the PWS plugin and the WS-view app?

Yes, I folloeed the instructions. But I can not clone the plugin since I dont know how to log into github to get the plug in file. I understand my password on github is not accepted but need some token instead… that is where I am stuck….

I don't think that you must login to GitHub to get the installation file.
You can find it here;
https://github.com/kovariktomas/Domoticz-PWS-Plugin

When you do need to login to GitHub make an account on GitHub and search the www to get the plugin to work in Linux.

When I follow the instruction for installation and use the ”clone” command, it asks for a user name and password. I have an account on Github but the password must be a token, not my password on Github.
Is there only one .py file to put in the domoticz/plugin folder? I think I can get it there. Do I need any command in Linux to get it working or only restart Domoticz and the plugin would show up?
Thanks a lot for your help!

You do not have to login to GitHub. Just use in the /home/pi/domoticz/plugins directory

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/kovariktomas/Domoticz-PWS-Plugin.git

And all the files will be "cloned"
If for some reason that does not work for you then use:

Code: Select all

wget https://github.com/kovariktomas/Domoticz-PWS-Plugin/archive/refs/heads/master.zip

or

Code: Select all

curl -s https://github.com/kovariktomas/Domoticz-PWS-Plugin/archive/refs/heads/master.zip

and unzip that file in the /home/pi/domoticz/plugins/Domoticz-PWS-Plugin directory.
And yes you only need the plugin.py file.

[fjuppe]

OK, your suggestions fixed my problem.
I now have the plugin working in Domoticz.
Just translated the .py file into Swedish and now only waiting for my weather station to arrive.
Thank you to all!

Hello,

Now I have set up my weather station (Ventus W830W, should be the same as WS-5500). The plugin is working but I have a few problems that I am asking for help for. all devices are created correctly. The Baro device says Absolute pressure but weather displays shows Relative pressure and this I can not change...
All values are transferred to WU correctly, Rain and Baro also.

1. I have and entry in the Domoticz logfile every time the plugin is run:

Code: Select all

2023-10-18 09:09:04.157 Error: W830: Call to function 'onMessage' failed, exception details:

2023-10-18 09:09:04.157 Error: W830: UnboundLocalError: local variable 'softwaretype' referenced before assignment

2. The Rain, rainrate and Baro values are not transferred to Domoticz devices. Maybe depending on above error ??

Any ideas?
Any help is much appreciated, but remember, I am not so familiar with Linux commands

I use the plugin from https://github.com/Xorfor
It is not available anymore because the user switch to HA.
You could ask him for the source or search in history.
