Meteobridge PRO/PRO2/NANOSD/RPI Discussion • Re: Absolute Beginner Question RPi

Dear friends,

I bought a WeatherBridge, and it does all I need but post to a website-hosted template like PWS_Dashboard.

Hi Tom,

Welcome to this forum.

A WeatherBridge is a standard Meteobridge with an Ambient logo and support.
And as it is a Meteobridge, it can upload to everything you want.
Also PWS_Dashboard, as i am doing it myself at home.

Also I am the develioper of PWS_Dashboard, so please post your problems here or at the https://discourse.weather-watch.com/c/internet/pws-dashboard/76

At last count, there are more then 120 out of 700 known PWS_Dashboard users who use Meteobridge/WeatherBridge to upload their weather-station data to their PWS_Dashboard website.

I also have a RPi 4B so I was thinking of flashing MeteoBridge to it. However, I got stuck creating the image microSD using the Pi imager as it warned me that it will delete everything on the card. I thought I would simply add the image to the Pi OS card, but this does not seem to be possible. I can use a new and dedicated SD for the Meteobridge, but it seems that the Pi needs the OS on the SD. How can I have both the OS and MeteoBridge SDs simultaneously with only one SD slot?

Thanks for helping out!

Tom

A Meteobridge is the only system on the hardware it uses. Same for your WeatherBridge or on your Raspberry. No keyboard, no display.
It has its own low-level operating system and takes control of all connections.
There can and will be no other software on the SD.

Before flashing your SD card, you could post the problem with the URL to your PWS_Dashboard site, maybe als a screenshot of your MB FTP upload settings
And if needed, a Meteobridge supports remote support you can switch on to give remote access to your device. Either for the developer of Meteobridge if it is a Metebridge problem. Or to me if you can not get the upload working correctly.

Regards,
Wim
