3.3 Publishing to Internet Weather Services
The GW1100 Wi-Fi gateway supports uploading all collected sensor data to popular internet weather services, allowing you to share your data and access it from anywhere:
- Vejret under jorden
- WOW (Vejrobservationer Webwebsted)
- Vejr sky
- Ecowitt Vejret
- Other custom sites (using either Wunderground or Ecowitt protocol).
Configuration for these services is typically done through the WS View Plus/Ecowitt APP or the gateway's local web interface.
The Ecowitt GW1100 supports publishing data to multiple online weather platforms.
4. Vedligeholdelse
4.1 firmwareopdateringer
The GW1100 gateway supports firmware updates to introduce new features and improve performance. You can configure the device to update firmware automatically:
- By default, the automatic firmware update option is unchecked. This means the device will not upgrade firmware by itself.
- If you enable this option (via the app or local web interface), the gateway will automatically upgrade its firmware when connected to your router with internet access.
- Original data will be retained during the update process.
4.2 Rengøring og pleje
- Wipe the gateway and probe sensor with a soft, damp klud efter behov.
- Brug ikke slibende rengøringsmidler eller opløsningsmidler.
- Ensure the device remains dry and is not exposed to extreme temperatures or direct water immersion.
5. Fejlfinding
If you encounter issues with your Ecowitt GW1100 gateway, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Ingen strøm/Ingen indikatorlampe: Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the gateway and a working USB power source. Try a different USB port or power adapter.
- Problemer med Wi-Fi-forbindelse:
- Verify your Wi-Fi network is 2.4GHz. The GW1100 does not support 5GHz networks.
- Sørg for, at din Wi-Fi-adgangskode er indtastet korrekt under opsætningen.
- Flyt gatewayen tættere på din Wi-Fi-router for at forbedre signalstyrken.
- Restart your Wi-Fi router and the GW1100 gateway.
- Re-run the Wi-Fi configuration process through the WS View Plus/Ecowitt APP.
- Sensor Data Not Appearing:
- Ensure the external sensors (if any) are powered on and within range of the GW1100 (up to 100m/330ft in open air).
- Check the battery status of external sensors.
- Verify that the sensors are correctly added and enabled within the WS View Plus/Ecowitt APP.
- Upræcise læsninger:
- Ensure the GW1100's built-in probe is not exposed to direct sunlight or heat sources, which can affect temperature and humidity readings.
- For external sensors, ensure they are placed according to their specific instructions for optimal accuracy.
- Perform sensor calibration through the app if available and necessary.
