Don't get too wrapped around the axles about what happens with the output from genArchiveRecords(), WeeWX will take care of it. Just like a driver emits loop packets and WeeWX accumulates the data from these loop packets and (if necessary) emits an archive record, WeeWX will take care of the archive records emitted from genArchiveRecords(). By the sounds of it the need to reset the history via a button on the console may be the real problem, guess it will come down to exactly how the station works and what it can/can't do. Sounds like some experimentation will be required.
