First, Thanks for such a great program...
I have been getting an error with the last two versions (1.9.2 and 1.9.3 build 1039)

This is an error I receive when I start the program.

8/1/2012 2:59:52 PM : The station is not initialised
8/1/2012 2:59:52 PM : Byte 0 = 55 Byte 1 = 00
8/1/2012 2:59:52 PM : Try resetting the console

The first indication I get that this is going to happen on restart is the error log telling me my device has stopped sending data and reports errors "Data input appears to have stopped - check your station and connections".

I can still connect with other programs (Easyweather) but not with Cumulus (1.9.3 build 1039)

I am utilizing a Ambient Weather WS-2080 connected via USB.

Sometimes this happens when the station is about 1/4 full on the memory and sometimes it just goes for weeks without issue.
I have tried all the other resets of PC, USB cable, etc and the only way I have found to correct the issue is to pull the batteries of the console and reconfigure the stations settings. Bad part is I lose all the data from the time it stops to the time I reset.

I do not have any issue like this with my OS WMR200A.

Sorry to make my first post in here a cry for help but anything that can be provided is appreciated.

The memory in your console does not contain the values expected, which mean that it hasn't been initialised correctly (according to the documentation I have). Easyweather appears to ignore this. See the FAQ for how to make Cumulus ignore it.
