Hi,

Never used a WS1 but looking at the driver have you turned on debug for 
both WeeWX and the driver? In weewx.conf set debug=1 and under [WS1] add 
debug_read 
= 2. Save weewx.conf then restart WeeWX. Have a look at the log, I would 
suggest posting the log from when WeeWX was restarted (don't be afraid of 
posting too much log, most folks tend to post minuscule log extracts and 
that makes it hard to get the full picture). You might find someone will 
then be able to help/offer further guidance.
