Ventus W820 bluetooth driver and weewx connector

The Ventus W820 is a bluetooth enabled weather station. This repository provides a library to read the values of the sensors and a driver for the weewx weather station software

The library requires bluepy for the BLE communication

Project website: http://daduke.org/coding/ventus.html

How to use it:

• install bluepy
• ventus.py is the low level library that talks to the weather station, copy it to a standard python library path (e.g. /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/
• ventusw820.py is the weewx driver, it goes into the weewx driver directory

• define your Ventus station in the weewx config file:

  [W820]
  # This section is for the Ventus W820 weather station.
  
  # MAC address of bluetooth interface
  mac = <your W820 bluetooth MAC address goes here>
  
  # The driver to use:
  driver = weewx.drivers.ventusw820
  
  polling_interval = 60

• define your default station as a W820:

  station_type = W820

that's it! Contact me if you have any questions.
