Weather sensors Mobile Alerts

I have a weatherstation by Technoline, using 868 Mhz sensors - so don't think I can connect those directly using RFXcom. However the sensors are already connected with a network gateway (allowing me read them though the Mobile Alerts app, and also connect with Conrad Connect). Wondering if anyone knows for a way to read these sensor by means of that network gateway (or via Mobile Alerts or via Conrad connect)?

The weatherstation is a Techno Line Mobile Alerts MA 10006

Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction

Looks nice... but back to your question: The mobile alerts app is it working only within your own network or also elsewhere through the internet?

Your gateway is talking through your internet-router and/or wifi-accesspoint. So you have to identify its 'locally' assigned ip-address (you probebly have it somewhere within the App). And try a portscan to find open/listening port and browser to connect to its open port(s).

Other ways are WireShark etc... but requires experience to find the communication and data to filter and collect....

Hopefully someone (Google make/model hac....) already did?

Hello, The Mobile Alerts app is not limited for use in my own network, I can use it anywhere on the Internet. More info on the app can be found here https://www.mobile-alerts.eu/index.php/en/
I see there now also that they now provide provide an REST API. This allows access to the last measured value of a sensor stored in the cloud.
So now thinking it may be easier to pull sensor values from there (altough I have to admit that I have no experience with that either)

Hi there,

Just found this post - I'm looking at setting up something to capture weather data and track it, and have been looking at the Mobile-Alerts weather system for this. How do you find the system? Is it good for you?

Have you made any progress on accessing the data?

My intention is to get a weather system plus some extra sensors (mainly hygrometers for some indoor terrariums which contain orchids, and a sensor for our greenhouse). Then I want to set up a batch process which pulls down the data from the Mobile-Alerts cloud via the REST API, and pushes it into an ElasticSearch cluster so I can look at trends for the weather/humidity/etc data. I run ES on my Synology and will run the batch REST process there too, once I've written it.
