VP Solar Data Missing During Data Extraction (2)

Solar and ET data is(ET drops to 0 then recovers after real time) missing during data extraction on both the standard and real time graphs. The Vantage pro log file (112004vantagelog.txt) is getting a low incorrect entry for solar also. The UV is recording OK.

Also the ET scale on the real time graph has all zeros. .01, .02, ETC.

I do have plot WD own ET and use graph 4 checked. The solar was working in a much earlier version. ET never has.

This occurs in my one minuet real time version and in my 15 minuet test verison in a second install (2wd.txt).

In the 15 minuet version I found if i round up the Davis download time to the nearest 15 (you could use the current padding to fit all possibilities) in the wdisplay2.ini file that WD would only down load the necessary data. It would not start from the beginning. This saves a lot of unnecessary downloading. This would be a improvement for those that run other than one minuet intervals.

solar is no problem for me during data extraction
for some reason it looks like your hardware is not providing the solar data for the data extraction
so i cant fix what is not there (well you could email me the vptemplog and i will see if it is there)
i know of 1 other person with that problme (peter)

Hmmm The 15 minuet test WD is hooked to an envoy with weatherlink also, weatherlink has all the solar date intact. I never clear the records. The Live one which I use one minuet is hooked to a console. They both do it. When I bring the live one down for maintenance I try to do it during the night so I don’t miss and solar data. I will investigate further.

Sending you file in case it will give us a clue.
