Thanks Brian, duff passwords in the files anyway so hopefully not too much risk.

the problem is you have set up to use 1 wire solar
at some stage in the past

so you need to go to the com port setup, dallas 1 wire with station
tick, i want to use dallas 1 wire with my station
then go back to the solar setup,then the 1 wire/labjack tab

then untick all those settings you have set there off

then click on OK
then go back to the com port setup, 1 wire, and untick to use 1 wire as well
then OK

then restart WD

Fantastic Brian, worked like a dream.

Hadn’t realised that if not using the 1 wire solar it hid the 1 wire solar settings.

Fantastic service as always.

Thanks again

i will change so that if 1 wire not in use anymore, those 1 wire solar settings will not get used, even if set

Thank you Brian,

For my case that also functions on my wmr200.

Thanks again Brian, all working well now. Just need some sun! Since I got it working we have had lots of cloud

Hello i need help :oops: I have modification THGR810 to solar. I have WMR200 and senzor is on the chanell 2 on the console. Modification is made by these manual Use an OS THGR 810 temperature/humidity sensor as a global radiation sensor with the same two resistors 2,4kOhm + 100 Ohm and light probe is from Hygrosens 0 lux 10 kOhm.
I have trouble that probe is not working good i dont know what is wrong. I have to much big readings and is not working good when is dark or light. The light probe is the plastik bottle 0,5l

When I built mine I added a variable resistor to the setup so I could adjust the circuit resistance to ensure the temperature readings on the sensor stayed “inbounds” during full sun (note the highest temp reading). Then note the temperature reading during hours of darkness. That will give you the 2 temp extreme’s you need to enter in the WD setup screen for solar max/min.

Thanks for the answer NorCal Dan =D> I will buy today one variable resistor. But the same like is yours 10kOhm ? I notes that i have on the display when is full sun 66
