Error after stopping outside sensors

Post by xtr278 »

I disconnected my outside sensors from the base unit and Cumulus seemed to handle the change well. Afterward, I reconnected the sensors. Upon the next restart of the PC, Cumulus displayed an error. I am guessing the disconnection and reconnection of the sensors are the cause. Cumulus generates the error when it is attempting to download the data from my LaCrosse 2315.

I think that your station has recorded a humidity of zero. I use humidity to calculate the dewpoint (as dewpoint isn't available from the logger), and taking the log10 of zero is causing the problem; I probably should check for this. You're running a fairly old version, so I can't say for certain that this is the problem - could you upgrade to 1.8.6, please?

You should be able to get around this by unsetting 'use data logger' in the station settings, just for the first start up.
