Record Breaking Temps Error

Paul C · **Posted:** Fri Oct 02, 2009 8:01 pm

Several times today my console has stopped showing temperatures. I went out this evening and re-inserted the temp connector and its settled down. However both cumulus 1 and 2 both showed very weird readings. It was interesting to note that Weatherlink just showed blank

Below is the error image for Cum 2. Cumulus 1 now has a record Min of -37c for today and record low wind chill

The VP2 has some default values for when sensors aren't transmitting; C2 doesn't have any checks for these yet, but I thought C1 did. If you look in the Weatherlink database, you should be able to see the actual values in there; if you could tell me what they are I can see what Cumulus should be checking for.

I will attached a screen shot of the weatherlink data ? I could email a .wlk file ?

The sneaky thing just display dashes instead of the 'special' values. I wanted to see the real numbers, I don't suppose there's any way to get it to show those. But it should be all in the documentation anyway, I'll just look them up. I know C2 doesn't check for any of them yet. I'll see what's missing from C1.

I've looked at the Cumulus 1 code, and it does check for the 'error' values, and ignores that reading. So the station must have supplied that value of -37C. The error values are all in the -32000 range anyway.
