Thanks Steve,
Will probably slowly waste my money trying to get this one to work then, and will then get a VP2.

Right, spending money again......
Now have an SIM with radiation shield, but still no sensors.
Looking to get the following sensors now.
The impossible Temp/Humidity sensors
Annometer
Solar
Rain Gauge
From looking about most should be easy to get, with the exception of the Temp/Humidity
Just need to find them for a sensible price.

just out of interest, there is a round yellow sticker on top of the 28 pin device, what number is written on it?

What 28pin device do you mean?
And do you still have an anometer available for sale belfryboy?

I think that you might have misunderstood my question,
on the PCB inside the sensor suite there is ayellow sticker, what does it say on it (you can see on this one that it says 1.1)
This is the SIM (Sensor Interface Module)
this is the ISS (Integrated Sensor Suite)

Sorry mine looks different to that.
Can't see any yellow stickers either.

Sorry mine looks like this...

But I can't see a Yellow Sticker?
Do I need to remove the White Board?

Yup, remove the cover and have a look, it will help determine whether you can use a new temperature sensor.

OK With the Cover Removed mine looks like this
SIMNOCOVER.JPG
(same as yours with 1.1)
So I guess it's the older one and won't work with new sensors?
So what sensors will work on this board? That are still avaiable is it just
UV
SOLAR
WIND
RAIN

That's right, wind rain solar and UV sensors are generic and will work with your SIM. I do have the anemometer available if your are interested, and a spare temperature/humidity sensor as well.
