Hi guys,

I would ask if it exist a solution to check input data packet without web interface of CumulusMX.
Example: If I have a low battery in ISS or I have a bad receiving performance, or I have a bad connection with USB interface. Maybe can be usefull to check if all data packet are correctly in.

Exist a tool or a file to check ?

Thanks.

Hi
You can check data packets through the VP2 console diagnostic screen. Details are from page 38 of the VP2 manual. https://www.davisinstruments.com/produ ... _06312.pdf

Have a look at the Webtags in the Cumulus wiki (https://cumuluswiki.org/a/Webtags).

Towards the end (https://cumuluswiki.org/a/Webtags#Davis) there is a section about data available from DAVIS systems. Battery sensing is amongst these.

The beginning of this wiki describes the methods available to read this data.
