v1009 Davis Time Update
Just noticed, I have "Synchronize Davis clock to PC" checked in Configuration, but the time for my Davis Vantage VUE console lags by 36 seconds.

Re: v1009 Davis Time Update
The command to set the clock has a resolution of one minute, and Cumulus just discards the seconds from the current time.

Re: v1009 Davis Time Update
I had the same problem having just purchased a new Davis Vantage Pro2. I solved the problem by creating two scheduled tasks, the first one at 02:58 each day to close the cumulus processes and a second at 03:00 each day to start the cumulus process. This means that the Davis clock is reasonably accurate all the time. On windows you need to create a *.cmd file for the close function (the command file should contain the line - taskkill /t /im cumulus.exe - this will shut down the cumulus processes when called from the scheduler). Hope this helps other people.

Re: v1009 Davis Time Update
This works around the issue of Cumulus only setting the clock at startup, but won't help the situation described in the original post.
