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 it went back 10 minutes and logged the data. My assumption was: if Davis works OK, weewx will get all values (including solar) from the datalogger. But it did not. No solar in the past 10 minutes. 2. I stopped the weewx, stopped the Davis datalogger, cleared the datalogger's memory, started the datalogger and then weewx. Solar was there! For one day. Then it stopped logging it. 3. After point (2), I left it running and the solar came back sometime next day, then disappeared, etc. No intervention from me. 4. *Important:* When the solar value disappears, the wind values are definitely *wrong*. If I'm not mistaken, weewx picks up the maximum gust & average in the last minute (I have it set to 1 minute interval). But I think it just picks up some value that is on line at the moment of reading. Not the minute-generated values by the console. This is clearly seen in the wind plots. But not in temperature because temperature is not as dynamic value as the wind is. 5. On another faulty occasion, clearing the datalogger's memory didn't help. So it is not really a workaround or solution to the problem. I haven't installed the RTC chip yet but I highly doubt the time is the issue. Time reading has been very stable comparing to my laptop and other RPis I have installed around. I've installed an NTP as well. Is it possible the Davis' datalogger is the issue here? Had anyone experienced a similar observation or Davis hardware failure? I know I need to see the console in person but right now this is not possible. At least for a month.
