Emax-W6 via RTL_433 [SOLVED]

Post by JeanBonnot »

Hi everybody,
I recently installed an Emax-W6 weather station that transmits its data on 433 MHz. I'm using RTL_433, which recognizes the station perfectly, and Domoticz displays several devices from the Emax-W6.

BUT, only temperature and humidity are visible in Temp. page and emax-w6 LUX (luminosity?) appears in measurements page.

Other parameters such as UV radiation, rainfall, wind speed and direction have no associated devices.
The measurements page does not contain any of these devices.

The graphs for all emax-w6 devices are accessible (only) from the "Setting" - "Devices" page.

How to have emax-w6 devices displayed in"Measurements" page ???

Thx

Thx for reply, but ... "weather" tab does not exists ! (?), only "Utility" tab (Mesures in french).

Furthermore, I have two devices in "temperature", including the wind sensor ( but both only display the temperature).

Go to Menu Setup-Users and activate the weather tab for the users you have. See wiki:

🙏 Thanks Walter, I'm a little ashamed I didn't look into that... Everything is working fine now.
