<h3>Download</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Download the package <span class='code'>weewx-X.Y.Z-R.rpm</span> from <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/weewx/files">Sourceforge</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Install</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Install weewx by double-clicking the .rpm file, or via command line:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class='tty'>
|
|
sudo rpm -i weewx-X.Y.Z-R.deb
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Verify</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
After 5 minutes, open the station web page in a web browser. You should see the default weewx page with generic station information and data.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class='tty'>
|
|
file:///usr/lib/weewx/html/index.html
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Status</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Look in the system log for messages from weewx.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class='tty'>
|
|
sudo tail -f /var/log/messages
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Configure</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The default installation uses Simulator as the <span class='code'>station_type</span>. This should be changed to the actual weather station type.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Edit the configuration file <span class='code'>/home/weewx/weewx.conf</span>. Set at least the following:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>location</li>
|
|
<li>latitude</li>
|
|
<li>longitude</li>
|
|
<li>altitude</li>
|
|
<li>station_type</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
Also set any parameters specific to the station, such as the <span class='code'>port</span> for stations connected via serial port.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
weewx must be restarted for configuration file changes to take effect.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Start/Stop</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The installer configures weewx to run when the computer starts up and starts weewx the first time. To start/stop weewx manually:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class='tty'>
|
|
sudo /etc/init.d/weewx start<br/>
|
|
sudo /etc/init.d/weewx stop<br/>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Customize</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To enable uploads such as Weather Underground or to customize reports, modify the configuration file <span class='code'>/etc/weewx.conf</span>. See the <a href="usersguide.htm">User Guide</a> and <a href="customizing.htm">Customization Guide</a> for details.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
weewx must be restarted for configuration file changes to take effect.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Uninstall</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To uninstall weewx, removing configuration files but retaining data:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class='tty'>
|
|
sudo rpm -r weewx
|
|
</p>
