Re: Sensor cable length?
Sorry to raise this subject again but can I confirm something? If I want to extend the cables for my Wind Sensor (Raising it about six metres), all I need is a UK telephone extension cable? That seems far to easy! :shock: I do have access to some "3 pair" outdoor phone cable that would be ...

Re: Lost Sensor Contact!!
I’ve just had an email from Maplin’s Customer Support. They expect to have a new consignment of Weather Stations Kits on Thursday. My replacement will then be post to me.
Their CS seems pretty good IMO. I'm really glad that I did not succumb to the temptations of buying of Ebay.

Re: Lost Sensor Contact!!
Did you notice if your old unit was 433 or 868 MHz, Geoff? Mine is 433 but it would seem that more recent ones are 868MHz. If the new one is a different frequency and you were getting interference, the change may cure it. OTOH, as you say, Maplins acknowledged that there was a fault. I didn't notic...

Re: Lost Sensor Contact!!
For what it is worth, I was advised earlier this week that the manufacture has fessed up to a transmitter problem and replacements transmitters (at least here in the US) may be available as early as next week. This may be totaly unrelated but it sure is coincidental. I have continued to have the sa...

Re: Lost Sensor Contact!!
So eventually today, braving the showers, I brought the whole thing into the shed where I could check it over. All seemed ok except that one battery was u/s so I replaced both. A flashing red light above the batteries told me that something worked - I guessed. I cleaned everything - checked all wir...

If you want it to display BST: User Control Panel - Board Preferences - Summer Time/DST is in effect - select 'yes'.

Re: Issues relating to installing a REPLACEMENT weather station!
.......When my station has been down for repairs, I've just accepted the fact that I have a gap in my data. I guess that is what I'll have to do - but thanks for the response Steve! What about the issue of running the new setup under Cumulus? Do I simply run my current Cumulus when the replacement ...

Issues relating to installing a REPLACEMENT weather station!
I had to send back my weather station when a fault developed and I am HOPING to have a replacement before too long...... So I'm now thinking about how I go about setting up and installing the replacement. Obviously the physical job of installing the kit isn't the problem. What I'm wondering is how t...
