Chatteris Weather has been publishing weather data to UK Weather Network<\/a> (UKWX) for a number of years when Martin from UKWX Admin mailed to let me know my data was no longer being shown.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Originaly Weather Display was configured to send data to UKWX and during the changeover to Meteobridge Pro this got missed, fortunatly in Martins mail alerting me to the problem was a link on how to configure Meteobridge.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"MB<\/p>\n

I followed the above steps but couln’t get it to work, Martin kindly gave me the details of Bob Montgomery owner of Bishop Sutton Weather Station<\/a> who also uses a Meteobridge, and he was very willing to offer advice in order to help me get the data created in a format which UKWX can injest.<\/p>\n

This is what I learned with help from Bob:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open MB_stickertags-template.txt<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. Copy the contents of the text file and past it into Notepad (I use Notepad ++<\/a>)<\/li>\n
  3. Save this file as MB_stickertags-template.txt<\/li>\n
  4. Upload this file to your server, for ease I placed it in the root directory<\/li>\n
  5. Set the file permission to 666<\/li>\n
  6. In Notepad create a blank file and save it as MB_stickertags.txt<\/li>\n
  7. Upload this file to your server, for ease I placed it in the root directory<\/li>\n
  8. Set the file permission to 604<\/li>\n
  9. Open Meteobridge Pro and select the Services tab<\/li>\n
  10. Create an FTP and select periodical upload<\/li>\n
  11. Enter your site details and update frequency as per the example below  (don’t forget to use yoursite) and press SAVE<\/li>\n
  12. .Press TEST<\/li>\n
  13. Using your browser enter www.yoursite\/MB_stickertags.txt and you should be able to see your data<\/li>\n
  14. Using the UKWX Contact Form<\/a>, let admin know of your details<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
