Re: [weewx-user] Re: No solar reading from Davis Vantage Pro2

Sure sounds to me like a problem with your ISS, or, possibly, the link between the ISS and console. I would give Davis a call. On Mon, Jul 13, 2020 at 10:53 PM peter wrote: > I still had no chance to see the console whether it reports the solar > value or not. I have few observations that may

Re: [weewx-user] Re: No solar reading from Davis Vantage Pro2

I still had no chance to see the console whether it reports the solar value or not. I have few observations that may help. I'd really appreciate advice what may be causing this. 1. Davis' datalogger is set to 1-minute interval. I stopped the weewx for 10 minutes and then restarted. Upon start

The solar radiation disappeared after a few hours. I stopped weewx and ran it manually according to instructions. I do get "REC" and "LOOP" packets none of which contain "radiation". This is an example output (apologies for creating a long post). > LOOP: 2020-06-22 22:46:13 CEST (1592858773)

See the section *Running directly * in the User's Guide. Be sure to stop weewx first. On Sun, Jun 21, 2020 at 1:55 PM peter wrote: > >> >> Is a value for solar radiation appearing on the console? >> >> I don't know, sorry. The setup is

Re: [weewx-user] Re: No solar reading from Davis Vantage Pro2

The DMPAFT log entry is normal. Is a value for solar radiation appearing on the console? If you run weewxd directly from the command line, does it show a value for radiation? -tk On Sun, Jun 21, 2020 at 1:26 PM peter wrote: > Thanks, vince, > I will install it and see if it works better. I

Thanks, vince, I will install it and see if it works better. I assume the issue is in the correct date? Why then only for a solar reading? The issue only happens on this setup but not on other 2 I own, that's why I'm surprised. Dne nedelja, 21. junij 2020 22.18.50 UTC+2 je oseba vince

I'd start by ensuring the pi has quality time. Generally running NTP works better than the built-in systemd time software. An inexpensive realtime clock module also tends to help. There are 'dozens' of posts here about the importance of having accurate date+time especially on devices like a
