not downloading data recorded when not connected to PC

Post by josebcn »

Hello All,

I would like to record data in my weather data when it is not connected to the PC.
And connect weather data station to the PC once every several days to download data.

Data is recorded but when I connect weather data station to the PC only online data is download to the PC, not recorded data.

I use 5 minute interval data
Version is 1.9.2 build is 1032

Thank you very much,
Jose

Note that Cumulus expects certain sensors to be working before it will log data (to avoid logging garbage data). See http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#Cumulu ... eb_uploads

But apart from that, the memory in your station appears to be corrupted, so Cumulus cannot process the logger data. For example:

10/01/2013 21:46:21.390 : Request EW data block, addr = 00A078
10/01/2013 21:46:21.404 : EWUSB: EW startup data line 13 FF FF FF 6B 27 FF FF FF
10/01/2013 21:46:21.412 : EWUSB: EW startup data line 14 88 12 00 40 FF FF FF FF
10/01/2013 21:46:21.412 : EWUSB: Data: FF FF FF 6B 27 FF FF FF 88 12 00 40 FF FF FF FF
10/01/2013 21:46:21.420 : EWUSB: EW startup data line 15 00 3C 02 01 FF FF FF 6B
10/01/2013 21:46:21.428 : EWUSB: EW startup data line 16 27 FF FF FF 88 12 00 40
10/01/2013 21:46:21.428 : EWUSB: interval = 255

Note the logger interval of 255 minutes.

I suggest that you reset the station (remove batteries and USB cable), and investigate the reason for it being unable to receive data from the outdoor transmitter.
