Daily rain errors

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Daily rain errors

Post by jdlco »

I am getting errors on my daily rain totals. I am running a Davis VP2 Plus with an IP logger. If I stop MX and restart I will see 9.8" or some other wild number of daily rain. Also MX is not matching what is on the console (this morning showing 0.00 and console says 0.04). In the MXdiags file I am seeing a lot of "loop data not received" messages. Any ideas on where to start to figure this out?

Hmm, its not looking very healthy.
You are getting lots of loop data not received errors. Also you are getting bad data sent consistently - Wind Speed = 0 mph, Average = 255 mph

I think it may be worth resetting your console and logger.

OK,

I think I have it sorted out. Must have gotten some demons in my network settings on this machine causing the bad data. A network reset seems to have solved the problems.

Mark, thank you for your ideas and also the continued work on devolping on MX.
