Sudden loss of connectivity

[vetgmc]

I have WH-1090. It has been working well ince installation a few weeks ago.

Yesterday when closing to reboot computer an error message came up briefly and disappeared. Since then there are no data getting through to display on Cumulus:

At the same time on the station itself I have lost contact with the external sensors, although the inside temp, RH & barometric pressure are still displaying on the station.

I have restarted the computer & the station, swapped to an alternative USB socket to no avail.

I will check the sensors outside soon.

Can anyone suggest to me how to proceed, to investigate further please?

Cumulus deliberately won't work when the sensors have lost contact, although I guess it ought to make it more obvious that it's doing that. Currently, it just logs a message to the debug log, if switched on.

Edit: I've just changed it so it logs to the error log and flashes the error light.

Thanks Steve. I will cehck what's happened to the sensors. I take it that the info from the station itself (internal temp and humidity) is not enough to allow Cumulus to continue displaying that information if the external input stops.

I will check what's happened to the external sensors.

I take it that the info from the station itself (internal temp and humidity) is not enough to allow Cumulus to continue displaying that information if the external input stops.

It could actually just display and log the pressure and the indoor temp and humidity; I can't remember the thinking behind not doing that. If I can't think of a good reason for it, I'll change it so it does.
