------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TempView v1.0 Release Notes 23-MAR-2014 =============================================================================== TempView is a simple data logger for "TEMPer" temperature sensors from PCSensor (http://pcsensor.com/, RDing Technology Ltd, ShenZhen City, China). The specific devices supported are: TEMPer1 TEMPer Gold Other similar devices may also work. These devices are, at the time of writing, available from DealExtreme as SKUs 81105 and 160314 for the TEMPer Gold and TEMPer1 respectively. Main Features: * Simple interface * Data logging to PostgreSQL or SQLite with a 5 minute resolution * Sharing the sensor between multiple PCs via PostgreSQL (all PCs pointed at the same database. One PC has a sensor and is set to log to the database). * Export of logged data to delimited text files (CSV, etc) * Supports Windows and Linux While this application is only currently available in English it is written to be easily translatable. This should be possible without any code changes using the standard procedure for translating Qt applications. To compile this application for Linux you'll need Qt ~5.2 and libusb-1.0. The QPSQL database driver is also required. If you installed Qt from your distributions package manager the database driver should be available from the same place. Other Configuration Options --------------------------- The following configuration options are not exposed in the UI. To set them you will need to edit the configuration file (or the registry on windows). If TempView finds a file called "TempView.ini" in the current directory it will read its settings from that instead of the normal configuration store for your platform. Don't Prompt On Exit If Logging ------------------------------- If TempView is set to log data to a database you will be warned when you exit the program. This behaviour can be disabled by setting the prompt_on_exit_if_logging settings key to false in the General section. For example: __________TempView.ini_____________ [%General] prompt_on_exit_if_logging=false ___________________________________ Receive Data from zxweather --------------------------- TempView is capable of displaying the outside temperature from a zxweather weather station. To do this the data source should be set to "Database" and the database details should be set to those of the zxweather database. The zxweather station code to subscribe to must then be set in the configuration file: __________TempView.ini_____________ [DataSource] stationcode=rua2 ___________________________________ ===============================================================================
