Post by fastbysuzuki »

Hi
i have a test site up at the moment but there is no data fed to it we have the davis vantage pro2 but are still awaiting the newbuild to be handed over to us before we can fit it. www.ncirossallpointfleetwood.co.uk, i have a realtime page that appears to work in that the temp, dew point and wind chill all rise to zero but the update time in the top left does not change during a forced upload i assume it should, am i correct in thinking that or not? if it should could someone please point me in the right direction to fix it. the realtime address is http://www.ncirossallpointfleetwood.co. ... images.htm

The time shown is read from the realtime.txt file; yours (at http://www.ncirossallpointfleetwood.co. ... altime.txt) has a set of default values in it and hasn't been updated since 22nd June. If you're not currently uploading, then the time won't change.

A manual web update doesn't do a 'realtime' update (e.g. realtime.txt), just the 'normal' files.
