No external sensor display

After 6 months of my FO working perfectly it stopped displaying the external sensors yesterday, so i pulled the batteries out of everything and its working again. Is this a common occurance? Also does anyone know if the calibrated relative pressure setting i have in the display unit is remembered while the batteries are removed?

While i was getting it back running i realised there is no monthly based reporting on Cumulus, it would be nice to see Cumulus roll up the dayfile log into a monthfile & yearfile and allow graphing of them so we can see monthly and yearly trends, just a thought

The console keeps the pressure offset, and will lose it if the console itself is unpowered.

Yes, Select-A-Graph currently only plots data from the monthly logs and not from the highs and lows in dayfile.txt. Of course, it's possible to do it 'externally', as some people have done.
