Last Rain Tip Broken

Just wanted to report a bug with MX, I'm using the latest build. The LastRainTip parameter is not updating correctly. For example, today there has been one tip, but MX says the last one was yesterday. Any ideas?

Feels Like Data

Hi everyone, Hope you're all well. I have recently started implementing the new feels like onto my site, but there seems to only be part of the data in the dayfile.txt, the rest doesn't have any feels like data. However, on other sites, I have seen a full set of feels like data, like on Mark Crossle...

Re: VP2 Console/Transmitter resyncs increasing

It seems that having the console antenna pointing downwards is actually helping the issue, which seems strange!

Re: VP2 Console/Transmitter resyncs increasing

Just seen this thread, I'm also having the same issue. I have taken two photos of the console from just a short time ago. Apparently, a few resyncs a day is considered normal, but does this look normal?

Davis Vantage Pro2 Signal Issues

Hi all, I hope you're well. Well, this issue has been going on for months and can't seem to fix (or more to the point find what's causing) the problem. My Davis Vantage Pro2 console has been struggling routinely to get a good signal, sometimes the signal gets through fine (99/100% received packets),...

Re: This Year's Rainfall Total

sfws, you're a star! Thanks very much! It is something to do with that table! The dayfile.txt amount matches with this year's amount. Now, to try and work out how to fix the table. :lol:

Re: This Year's Rainfall Total

@Mapantz Hi, how are you? Yes, I think so. But, surely if this year's rainfall is using the data in the dayfile.txt and that day isn't there, then it shouldn't use it? A few additional thoughts, that might all be red herrings!... The table web page you link to mentions some problems with rain gauge ...

Re: This Year's Rainfall Total

Nope, it's still at 485.6 mm, so it's still invented 1.6 mm from somewhere.

This Year's Rainfall Total

Hi everyone, I hope you're all doing well. Got a slightly problem. Cumulus MX has calculated that this year's rainfall total is 485.6 mm (at the time of writing), but adding up the daily rainfall values for the data available this year (incl. today so far) gives 484.0 mm. I've read the Wiki and appa...

Station Signal Loss?

Hi guys, Does anyone have any idea on what happened to my data last night (please see below image)? I've tried to reload the data, but the same issue occurs. I assume it's due to a loss in signal between the ISS and console. I replaced the ISS battery a few weeks ago, so I don't think it's that (the...

Re: Connected To Station - No Data?

Great, well deserved! I just want to ask one question, if a record is set, and then the same value occurs again, is MX supposed to use the first occurrence date as its record or not? It's just that I saw MX update my lowest temperature record's date to the latest one, not the first. Surely, the firs...
