I just updated my firmware to currently posted ver 3.00 firmware and utilize a serial cable (sans data logger).

That said though why is the firmware dated 05/26/2013 when the actual firmware date is from 2012.

BTW I updated because my rain tipping bucket quit working and it appears to may be an issue with a local Davis weather station with no tipping bucket?

I think that is an issue with Davis not updating the file internals properly.
You will also find that it does not report the new version via the DLL to Cumulus so the status page in your website (if it uses the cumulus tag <#DavisFirmwareVersion> ) will be blank.
