Build 3221

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).

Hi team. Installed 3221 today, started OK, but now I'm getting:

Looking for Fine Offset station
Fine Offset station found
Connected to station
Looking for Fine Offset station
Fine Offset station found
Connected to station

Getting this every few minutes. System seems to be running OK, and dashboard looks good.
Your thoughts on how to suppress these messages please. Logs attached.
Many thanks.

This sounds like CMX is losing contact with the station. Have you tried disconnecting the console and removing the batteries and restarting after a minute or two?

Hi David
Yes - did that a couple of times. Didn't change anything. However, I have turned off FO sync, ran MX, turned it back on and now seems stable. Last message are:

Completed read of history data from the console
2023-01-12 18:01:48 Start Synchronising with console, run #1
Normal running
- Found times for:- sensor: True, station: False , solar:True
2023-01-12 18:02:48 Stop Synchronising

So far so good, Fingers crossed.

FO Consoles are well known for loosing data because of USB issues. you can help this by using a shielded USB cable and using ferrite cores on both ends.
