I have installed StartWatch, VVP, VPLive, Cumulus, WeatherLink, and VWS (v14.01 P46 or something like that) on a new Win7 64 bit computer with the signed version of COM0COM. I have a Davis Weather Envoy reading wirelessly from a VP2 ISS. The Envoy has the latest Silicone Labs CP210x serial port driver installed and working, COM3 assigned. I have COM0COM setup and working fine with VVP, VPLive, Cumulus, and WeatherLink. I CANNOT, however, get VWS to connect with this setup. I have shut down all the other programs, inclucing VVP, and VWS will connect to COM3, the native serial port of the Envoy, and work fine. It won't connect thru VVP no matter what I try. I have posted in a thread in the VWS forum here and there is no apparent solution.
Any ideas?
In the other forum someone suggested connecting thru TCP/IP, but I'm unsure how to set that up. I tried several things, in VVP and VWS, as suggested in that forum, but couldn't get that to work either.
I'm not sure if I should be trying an older version of VWS, not sure if it's a VWS or VVP thing, or what. Seems like it is VVP as VWS connects and runs fine by itself.
Suggestions appreciated.
Update:
I uninstalled VWS, removed the install directory, reinstalled v14.01P49. Set communications to Davis Serial, port 7, the VVP port assigned to VWS. Restarted VWS, now VVP shows it's connected and communicating at a rate of less than every second, but VWS shows nothing happening. Not sure this is progress, but points more to VWS than VVP, maybe??
