Prerequisites

Get the special version of meteo and compile, install and configure it as usual.

Start meteopoll with

         /sbin/startproc $METEO_POLL_BIN -l syslog:local0 -s ${station} \
                                   -f $METEO_CONFIG \
                                   -U YOUR_DESTINATION_HOST -P 5002\
                                   -b msgqueue > /dev/null 2>&1

where YOUR_DESTINATION_HOST ist the host, where rts2-sensor-davis is running.

Configuration

In the file usually found in /etc/rts2/devices add the line
```
 sensor  davis   MET    --max-peek-windspeed 5.0  --max-avg-windspeed 3.0 --udp-port 5002
```
