Just a note – have this hooked up now and it’s working well. I have had a couple of bumps and scrapes (part of the learning process.) A couple of learnings to pass along – I’ve got it hooked to an XBee and was running it on 4 AA’s and it went under voltage in about 2 days (granted fairly hot weather.) The Battery reading still showed good on my last reading so I’m trying it with a 9V to see if I can do better power prediction. I also need to do a calibration – the two temp sensors are about 1.5 degrees F off from each other.
I can say it works well with the XBee – using the bluetooth RF contacts and it’s quite happy.
From the PDF documentation:
The following is an example output of the “Simple” text option from the Weather Board:
21.81,081.28,026.5,079.7,083534,918,0,000001$
21.81,081.33,026.5,079.7,083527,919,0,000002$
Every second a new set of readings is displayed. There are 8 cells of data separated by commas.
Cell 1 (21.81) = 21.81% Humidity?
Cell 2 (081.28) = 81.28F from the SHT15 sensor?
Cell 3 (026.5) = 26.5C from the SCP1000 sensor?
Cell 4 (79.70) = 79.7F from the SCP1000 sensor?
Cell 5 (083534) = 83854 Pascal from the SCP1000 sensor?
Cell 6 (918) = a relative reading from the TEMT6000 light ? sensor (pretty dark)
Cell 7 (0) = battery level is 0 (no battery attached)?
Cell 8 (000001) is record number and will increment ? each second
