Yes, I meant that one. Why did I ever offer the 3D option? :bash: Oh well, never mind.

Something clearly happened at around 0830 which has caused some kind of corruption to the data that Cumulus is reading. Loose USB connector? Power tool (or something else) as Terry suggests?

Nothing special happend at that time. Well, I was still in bed at 08:30.... :lol:

No errors, no sensor lost contact at the cumulus status.

At this moment everything is showing the correct values.

Yes, I don't know why users enable 3D? The graphs just become unreadable.

How about turn off the 3D and post the normal temp graph?

I think you should leave it for now. Let it continue running for another hour, see if anything else happens. Then, turn of the 3D graph option, and on the temperature graph, right click and turn off all the lines except "Temperature", then upload a screen shot.

Better to turn off all but the temperature line.

I think that I found the probem. The problem is in the weatherstation itself.

Past weeks I had problems with the windspeed readings. After a reset the windspeed was working ok. But now I wanted to reset the weatherstation again and now its not showing anything at all at the console.

So I ordered a Davis VP2 wireless station. I hope that the problems are solved with the new weatherstation.

Thanks for trying to help me!! I didnt know the problem was the station itself because the console showed the right temp readings. But now Im sure that Cumulus wasnt the problem.
