Do you know how to add the bloomsky github repositories to the IDE? It says the info I’m entering cannot be found. I have @tslagle13 device handler and smartapp manually installed for now.
Should I be able to see correct UV and Lux readings with a SKY2/Storm combo on the device tile? I’m using the latest DTH and connect app. I do see wind and precipitation rates from the Storm in the device tile but the Lux and UV values are stuck at 9999/11+.
FYI, The wind reported Unit is m/s. I confirmed that it matches the BloomSky website. Even though I have selected mph in the ST device it is displaying the m/s. Can someone fix this?
Thank You,
Mike Graber
Hi Bernie, Just saw that on FB. Looks like my DH is at 2.1.6 and BloomSky (Connect) v1.0. Is there a newer version? I just added it all yesterday, but might have gotten something wrong.
In looking thru the DH code, it looks like it is expecting the wind data in mph (is this correct?), as I see a conversion from mph to Kph. So maybe it is that my data is being sent from BSky as m/s. Just thinking out loud.
Thanks,
Mike
Hi Bernie, Thanks for you help. I just went ahead and modified my device handler to adjust for my data:
windSpeed = (windSpeed * 2.2).round(1).trunc(1)
windGust = (windGust * 2.2).round(1).trunc(1)
This has corrected my issue for now.
I noticed that my Rain Rate and Daily rain did not update today, so it is still 0 for both.
Any ideas on that?
Thanks,
Mike
Again I’m no use. LOL mine shows .08 in the BS app and .1 in ST for the day. We only had a little rain today. So it’s working here. 24 hours reset at midnight I think for BS so it’s not a true 24hr if I remember right.
I’ve just checked the Data that the Bloomsky API is sending today and found that for the STORM is now reporting UV but still no Battery report.
The STORM does no have LUX capability. From the BS site:
High precision 4 in 1 wireless weather device measures real-time UV, Rainfall, Wind Speed & Direction.
I will work on updating the UV reporting if STORM data is present.
Thanks for the reminder
Hi Bernie, I’ve tried to compare the numbers reported by the BS App and the API, refreshing both every 10 seconds and I could never get a match, neither in mph or kph. It does not matter, the values never match. I’ve tried to add both, and other formulas too.
If you look at your screenshots the only value that is Matching is the Wind Gusts, but not current Wind Speed and the Wind Direction does not match (NW against S).
This is still mystery to me.
I thought they just moved the UV/Lux sensors from the SKY1 to the Storm, didn’t realize they removed the LUX sensor entirely. Great, so SKY2/Storm customers lose the ability to measure illuminance
