Almost forgot to answer my own question.
Although I thought the TT4 expected hex values, the truth is the TT4 will decode the long string of text and break it into hex values, convert them to the desired parameter values and formulate the APRS WX output.
So, this was the actual format I had to send:
???? "!!00B6011601D9000527FB02A101050183004B0335000E0049"
Although for experimenting and changing the timestamp, I used this TeraTerm macro:
i=20
do while i>9
???????? int2str cntr? i
?? ?dispstr cntr
?? ?dispstr "?? "
?? ?; Send individual record data
?? ?; header (!!)
?? ?send "!!"
?? ?; Wind Speed (0.1 kph)
?? ?send "00B6"
?? ?; Wind Direction (degrees)
?? ?send "0116"
?? ?; Send Outdoor Temp (0.1 F)
?? ?send "01D9"
?? ?; Long Term Rain (0.01")
?? ?send "0005"
?? ?; Barometer (0.1 mBar)
?? ?send "27FB"
?? ?; Indoor Temp (0.1 F)
?? ?send "02A1"
?? ?; Outdoor Humidity
?? ?send "0105"
?? ?; Indoor Humidity
?? ?send "0183"
?? ?; Day of Year
?? ?send "004F"
?? ?; Time (minutes sice midnight)
?? ?send "03"
?? ?send cntr
?? ?; Total Rain
?? ?send "000E"
?? ?; Wind Average (0.1 kph) with <CR> <LF>
?? ?sendln "0049"
?? ?pause 59
?? ?i=i-1
loop
NOTE: I set this up so counter was always 2 digits, and just used the base10 numbers.
??????????? So, the timestamp would actually be counting down: 20 (32 decimal), 19 (25 decimal), 18 (24 decimal) ...
?????????? I should have counted up.
