My live wind speed is not functioning correctly. It is only showing me the max gust speed. I have tried and restarted the program to no avail. Any ideas of what to do. Should I reinstall then latest build.

Re: Live Wind Speed
I don't think a re-install will help. Mine started doing the same, but I'm not sure which build, because I just noticed it stuck on the max gust this late afternoon here. I wonder if it has something to do with the new realtime.txt format change? I'd wait and see what Steve has to say Chuck, before doing anything.andro700 wrote:My live wind speed is not functioning correctly. It is only showing me the max gust speed.

Re: Live Wind Speed
Chuck, I looked at your Cumulus page and the graph seems to be showing both wind speed and gusts.
Where are you seeing only Gusts?
Mine appears to be work with the current build, but right now there is no wind so there is nothing to really check.
I did update to the current version this morning and it registered wind during the day, See graph below...
I'm using a Davis VP2.

Re: Live Wind Speed
I thought he was referring to the Live Flash Wind and Direction gauges found on the gauges.htm page. That is the problem I am seeing, but maybe that is not the case for Chuck?TNETWeather wrote:Chuck, I looked at your Cumulus page and the graph seems to be showing both wind speed and gusts.

Re: Live Wind Speed
It is on the gauges.htm page. The real time wind data at the bottom of the page.

Re: Live Wind Speed
I see what you mean - mine's the same; it's now showing the 10-minute high gust figure. The realtime.txt changes shouldn't have caused the problem, because I only added things on to the end (didn't I?), but maybe I've accidentally changed something...

Re: Live Wind Speed
Yes, I changed it from the latest (gust) reading to the recent high gust. I don't know why. I'll change it back, as it makes more sense for the real time wind gauge as it was before. But maybe the realtime.txt file should have the recent high gust as well, somewhere.

Re: Live Wind Speed
My live flash wind gauges are working good as well. FYI: Everything else appears to be o.k. using the latest 1.8.3 b473 since today @19:30 UTC. Thanks!andro700 wrote:It is working again. Thanks Steve.
