I got the USB driver and that didn't work. What I did find though, is the Oregon specifically say that Windows 8 won't have issues with digital signatures on the drivers. I come to 'update' drivers from the computer on device manager and find that it's actually the digital signature that is stopping the connection.

Weather OS was developed to work on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 10 and is compatible with 32-bit systems. Weather OS lies within System Utilities, more precisely Device Assistants. This free tool was originally designed by Oregon Scientific.

WSDL FAQs

See here for some frequently asked questions. This page will be updated periodically to include common questions about WSDL.

WSDL Weather Shield for Arduino

Click here to find out more about this capability that was released in version 4.2 of WSDL. The remaining stock of version 2 shields is now available at a discounted price!

Goals

This free weather data logging application is focused on the following objectives:

Collection and archiving of accurate weather data.
Display of weather data as 2-dimensional plots.
Uploading weather data to internet weather sites.
Generation and upload of web pages containing real-time weather data.
Support of Oregon Scientific weather consoles (WMR88, WMR100, WMR200 and others).
Support of the Arduino WxShield weather data receiver.

Overview

This Windows application will display and log weather data obtained through a USB connection to the Oregon Scientific WMR88, WMR100, WMR200 and RMS300 weather stations. It also supports the WxShield reciever for Oregon Scientific wireless sensors. You will find features here for a wide range of users, from novices, to experts. The extensive user manual describes program features in detail and includes informative discussions on many topics.

The display includes most of the data available on the console, analysis of wind and temperature data plus graphs of temperature, pressure, wind and rain over varying periods of time. Data is also logged to a CSV file with options for automatic backup and trimming. Daily extremes can be extracted from the log file and written to a separate CSV file. Data upload to Weather Underground and CWOP is supported. Web pages can be generated and uploaded to web servers through FTP.

The current stable version is 4.4. WSDL is now under development again. The best method for submitting comments, bugs and feature requests is via the SourceForge OpenDiscussion for WSDL, here.

Users with the version 2 Arduino WxShield will also get this signal strength readout for their wireless sensors:

Features

This application is designed to work with the indoor console receiving multiple outdoor temperature and humidity sensors and with or without the optional UV sensor. The following data is accepted from Oregon Scientific weather station consoles:

Temperature/humidity from the base unit and all wireless sensors.
Current wind speed and direction.
Average wind speed.
Station pressure and altitude-corrected pressure.
Current rainfall rate.
Rainfall amount for the current hour and past 24 hours.
Total rain since the last reset, and the date/time of the reset.
Station clock setting & synchronization status with radio signal.
Battery status (OK or Low) for console, rain bucket and anemometer.
Wireless sensor signal strength (version 2 WxShield users only).
UV reading.
Optional WeatherJack barometer or the WxShield can be used for higher resolution pressure readings.

WSDL can now handle the maximum number of external wireless temperature/humidity sensors. Custom names can be provided for each sensor and graph colors can be user-defined. WxShield users can configure up to 20 wireless sensors.

Up to 16 graphs can be displayed at one time, and each graph can display a different type of data and/or different set of sensors. Graph setups can be saved for later recall; you can create setups for different kinds of weather -- storms, heat waves and so on.

Data processing on the raw console data yields the following additional information:

15-minute rate of change for temperature and dew point (indoor and outdoor).
1-minute summary of wind data -- average and peak gust.
Wind data processed according to METAR standards. Note: This DOES NOT mean you can legally use this software to produce offical aviation METARs.
Peak wind gust over the past hour.
3-hour altitude-corrected (aka sea level) pressure rate of change.
Removal of atmospheric tides from barometer data (most useful with higher resolution barometer data such as from WeatherJack or the WxShield).

The CSV-format log file is updated once a minute with the following information:

Station and altitude-corrected pressure.
1-minute peak wind gust and direction.
1-minute average wind and direction.
Rain rate and total rain since reset.
UV reading.
Temperature, dew point and relative humidity for all sensors.

Data can be periodically transferred to any of the following internet weather providers:

Web pages can also be created from templates and uploaded to a web server via FTP. Up to 16 PNG graphs can be created for upload, independent of the graphs displayed in the main window.

Users can generate a CSV summary file containing daily extremes of all data currently in the log file.

An options dialog allows the user to configure units used for display and in the CSV log file. Many aspects of automatic log file backup and trimming are also configurable.

Additional Features

Rain gauge maintenance setting ignores accidental bucket tips during cleaning or other maintenance of rain gauge.
Graphs can be periodically saved as PNG images and uploaded via FTP to a web server.
Up to 16 different graphs PNG images can be generated for upload, independent of graphs shown in main window. Upload can be through WSDL or use your own FTP client application.
Webcam images may be captured and uploaded via FTP.
Several calibration (tweaking) options for your sensors including the rain gage and temperature and humidity sensors. Rainfall amount (but not rain rate) can optionally be measured by counting rain bucket tips instead of using the rainfall numbers from the rain gage. There is also an option to compute sea level pressure inside the program, replacing the weather station value.

X10 Plug-In Project Started

Oregon Scientific Usb Devices Driver Download For Windows 7

SourceForge user 'jroal' has created a Google Code project for a WSDL plug-in that can operate with X10 devices. The X10 home automation system has been around a long time now and can control home appliances by sending signals through household wiring and also provides wireless capabilities. An introduction to X10 can be found here:

The Google Code project for the plug-in is here:
