Davis WeatherLink Integration

Ok I try thanks a lot, in case I will let you know

installed perfectly functional thanks, do you know how I can view the battery status?

This is a current limitation see this issue here: https://github.com/siku2/hass-weatherlink/issues/12

I personally havent bothered with chasing this as I just login to the official weatherlink live once in a while to review the battery.

yes that is true, it is not an indispensable thing.

If you have your system set up to send data to the WeatherLink website you will receive repeated emails from them when the battery needs to be changed. I’ve had three in the last couple of days.

i didn’t know it sent battery status as well, so it’s perfect.
Thanks for the informations.

Does anyone know if you can change the texts of the individual sensors on the weatherlink page in any way?

When you add the sensor to a card on your dashboard you can usually override the default name with name or friendly name. This is sometime easily done via the UI but for some YAML editing is required.

The default ones that come with the package cannot.

Do you have any nice scripts already tested to connect to the weather station?

Hi! I have a vantage pro 2 and am looking to get all the data in HomeAssistant. I was wondering why no one used a serial to usb cable to connect to their laptop and get the data that way…

I wanted to know where i can get this url to put into the resource.

No sorry, I just have a weather dashboard with a variety of tiles to display statistics/live data.

You can use a convertor cable and then get the data that way however there are limitations with this. When i purchased my station i decided on the investment in the Weatherlink Live as this is the newer and more supported approach. I cannot help with connection via USB as i have no experience with this.

The URL is pointing to the data logger in my case the Weatherlink live module (192.168.1.199) v1 and v2 then point towards different API’s from what I can remember.

This is my complete dashboard for weather if anyone is interested. Included specific local data that i am interested in.

So there are two devices? One is the vantage pro 2 which is the sensor for the weather. And the second device is the Weatherlink Live module which acts as the data logger and this is what is connected to HomeAssistant.

Yes the vantage station connects to the Weatherlink Live module (wirelessly in my case) this then acts as the data logger and is then connected to HomeAssistant via an API using either the link above or custom sensors.

Digging this back up because I am having this same issue. Can anyone help me figure out what to put in the “host” area? Thank you!

This is the IP address of your WeatherLink / AirLink device. You should be able to find this via your router or a free network scanning app.

E.g. 192.168.1.111

Thanks for your reply. On my weatherlink account, I can view AirLink IP Address, Router IP, and Subnet Mask. I have tried each of these and they are not working.
