rodbinaz Posted May 31, 2023 Posted May 31, 2023 I was able to successfully get the station ID and Token and have Weatherflow installed. Yet when I look at the Ployglot I see not data. I can see it is connected and it has populated the station info but no data. I have a Tempest on the same network as my eisy and know that the station is up and sending data. The Node is visible from both the admin console as well as UD Mobile. Am I missing something? -Rod
bpwwer Posted May 31, 2023 Posted May 31, 2023 What version of PG3 are you running? Is there anything in the log that would indicate why it's not able to get data from the tempest?
rodbinaz Posted May 31, 2023 Author Posted May 31, 2023 (edited) PG3 is 3.1.27 and there are no logs in the Weatherflow log section. Also, my eisy is on ethernet not Wi-Fi Edited May 31, 2023 by rodbinaz
bpwwer Posted May 31, 2023 Posted May 31, 2023 go into the log page and download the log package. PM me with the log package .zip file
rodbinaz Posted June 9, 2023 Author Posted June 9, 2023 Hey all wanted to document the solution. I had my Tempest on my guest network. as soon as I put it on my main network where my hub is, it is now working fine.
bpwwer Posted June 9, 2023 Posted June 9, 2023 Just to explain a bit. The WeatherFlow hub sends the data via a UDP network broadcast. Without special router configurations, UDP broadcasts are limited to a single network subnet. Meaning the hub and the eisy/Polisy need to be on the same subnet for this to work. If it's not possible to have them on the same subnet, you can configure the node server to use remote data vs. local data. It will then query the WeatherFlow servers for the data instead. The trade off being that you're now dependent on the your external Internet connection for the weather data. 2
