Thanks for the quick reply.

So I did a clean install of 'Raspbian Buster with desktop' and found and downloaded the feat-atlas in the zip file, as i couldn't figure out how to 'git clone', unzipped, and copied over the folder to my PI, verified that the 'acurite.c' file was the updated one with the atlas things in there, and installed. And still when i run the 'sudo rtl_433 -G' command its still coming up 'Unknown message type ' with the 5n1.

Am I missing something?

I've never tried to compile it that way.  I always do everything directly from the Pi with the clone command, then switch it to the "feat-atlas" branch before compiling.  I don't have my notes handy to remember the git syntax to do the switch.

However, if it compiled correctly, it should at least show "atlas" in the output.  If you don't have the lightning module installed, it will throw some goofy errors regarding the 5n1 since the packets are 3 bytes shorter without the module.  The RTL_433 devs copied some code from the 5n1, so that may be part of the problem.

When I removed my lightning module, I'd get errors like this:

Note that it will at least note "atlas" as the model, but otherwise it doesn't decode much.  I imagine the developers didn't anticipate the message lengths might vary in size depending on the lightning module being installed or not.

So if I have my lightening detector installed, it won't decode atm?

If you have the lightning detector installed, it will decode properly (except for the actual lightning data).  The problem is that the packets are 3 bytes shorter without the lightning detector, and RTL_433 doesn't deal with that yet.

So I do not have the lightning detector installed, I haven't boughten one yet, as its now fall here, and i was probably going to buy one next spring. So maybe that will be an early Christmas gift I'll have to buy for my self. But when running the command 'sudo rtl_433 -G' here is the output i get, which seems similar to yours without the lightning sensor. But I'm not seeing atlas anywhere mentioned. When I go in and look at the /rtl_433/src/devices/acurite.c theirs 'atlas' all through it


Code: [Select]
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo rtl_433 -G
rtl_433 version unknown inputs file rtl_tcp RTL-SDR
Use -h for usage help and see https://triq.org/ for documentation.

Trying conf file at "/etc/rtl_433/rtl_433.conf"...

        Use -G for testing only. Enable protocols with -R if you really need them.


        Consider using "-M newmodel" to transition to new model keys. This will become the default someday.

Bad solar panel in 5 in 1 Pro +

I took my CT unit down this weekend to change the batteries. Amazon Basic AA's lasted two years and two months. Not bad!

I've noticed that my station gets a slight temp spike in the morning when the sun hits it, then settles back down. Found out that one of the solar panels isn't working.

How do you remove that part of the unit? I was able to get the part with the wind cups and panels off the body, but couldn't dissemble it from there. Not sure what was holding it together?

Edit: It's a Pro + unit with two solar panels.

Open to any tips or pics!

Twice in the past few months I noticed what appeared to be temperature readings 2 or 3 degrees above surrounding stations for a couple of days. Both times it was the fan not working. When I took it apart the first time there was a dead moth wedged in the fan & the second time was a 2 inch lizard. Any suggestions on keeping these critters out?

Atlas Crapped Out

13 month old atlas as been working well.  This morning it now shows-40° and 1% humidity. It’s actually about 58° and raining. The rainfall stopped updating, stuck at 0.90” but it’s still raining outside. Oddly, wind speed and direction still updates normally. One month out of warranty...just my luck.

Can’t be too much.  We’ve had wind driven rain for the last 12 hours and I suspect water was forced up in to places it shouldn’t have gone.  Once this storm is over, I’ll get it down and investigate.

Seems there’s inconsistency with several components in the Atlas. Had to replace my Atlas sensor which AcuRite took care of. The original sensor began having power issues at night when the battery pack extension was connected. It was one of the original Atlas sensors they produced.

Anyhow the UV worked just fine on the old Atlas and would often hit 8-9 sometimes even 10 on a sunny July day. The replacement however never got above 5 and only read 5 once in a while. I fixed this by powering down the sensor and swapping the rain gauge lids and reconnecting the solar cable.

I was also told this is a known issue and they’ve got a log of all the complaints they got and are trying to fix it.

I do know the issues with the Atlas right now are why they haven’t released the Elite yet from what I’ve been told.

It quit raining and the sun came out...everything returned to normal. It’s a safe bet water got in somewhere it shouldn’t have.  It’s too windy to get on the roof today but I’ll check it later this week and report what I find

Have you replaced the batteries lately?  About a year is when they seem to start failing.

It’s due for new batteries. I use the Energizer lithium’s and always replace them in the fall.
