I replaced my WMR 100's rain gauge. Now, WMR 100 console shows rain totals, VWS shows rain rates, but VWS doesn't record any totals.

Broadcast jpeg is at http://stu-in-flag.net

An example of Daily Rain and rain rate is attached.

Any ideas?

I have the same problem I believe.  Shows up on the weather station? but does not actually record it?

Maybe we should get together; my VWS shows rain totals, but the rain rate is always zero.

Weird. I tried to reset the console, the raini gauge and restarted the computer software. Nothing changed.

What have you tried?

I just tried something else. I went to Settings->Calibration on the VWS menu and found an offset I had entered when the detector broke last year. I removed the offset and replaced it with 0.00. Then, I closed the Calibration window.

There are other settings that you might want to check in the Settings part of the menu.
