WL.com now shows "2nd temp", I only have 1Davis station!
« on: November 17, 2018, 09:00:17 PM »
weird; newer user, one week or so, and my weatherlink.com page had been working perfectly; suddenly tonight, I now show a "second temp" box at the end of the bulletin, and, the temp on it is different than the temp on my actual VP2..Its NOT the inside temperature...
What can THAT be?  I only have one davis VP2, no other davis stuff on my property or nearby..

thanks

Yes have one of those as well, 2nd temp showed up right from the original migration, was never showing before but only on 1 site, has been reported ages ago but nothing happened at all, still there. You can untick the 2nd Temp box on the bulletin page drop down menu on the right hand side to get rid of the vale but the reference still shows up just values dashed out.

This would be a bug

thanks, I know I can make it not show, but I was just wondering if it was some new feature that wasn't documented anywhere..

I know that this is an old thread, but I am seeing the same thing on the local marina's weatherlink page.

I just noticed this yesterday, because some genius drilled through the Ethernet cable connecting the WLIP to the router back at the end of October. The reporting was offline until yesterday. I was able to get with the Harbormaster and find the problem with the Ethernet cable.

All fixed now, except that there is a mysterious 2nd temperature. This is a bone stock 6152 with no extra sensors. (that I know of)

What is the temperature that your phantom "station" is showing? Mine is 33°F and is suspiciously steady. Not even the slightest variation over a period of days.

If this was a reading from a real sensor, I would expect to see some variation.
