Michael,
I have replaced my existing setup of the Davis Instruments Weather Logger and Virtual Weather Station (vws) with the Meteobridge solution. I have been unable to determine how to best supply mcsSprinklers with the six local data weather measurements.
I have placed the following in the "CSV/XML File Path/URL 1" field:
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/cgi-bin/template.cgi?template=[th0temp-act=F],[th0hum-act],[wind0wind-act=mph],[rain0total-daysum=in],[uv0index-act],[sol0rad-act]
with "Use Entire File" selected and "Delimited Layout with Delimiter" set to "," (comma).
The following is the response to the above URL request when used with a browser:
34.7,30.0,0.0,0.0,1.5,499.0
Each of the respective weather sensor sources are set; Temp, Humidity, Wind, Rain, UV, and Solar Radiation (1-6).
Is my interpretation of how to use the URL to retrieve a single line response incorrect? Would returning an XML file be easier/better? Are the numeric values in a format which is not understood?
Thanks!
