The Broadcast.jpg on home PC is correctly updated - but the same jpeg on my website is not (currently a much lower pressure reading). I created a dial for the baro pressure and it is even further off than the incorrect reading showing on the website broadcast.jpg pressure reading. Additionally, the inaccurate pressure readings are different for the same intruments at the PC versus the web site for both the broadcast.jpg and the baro dial I created (VWS596.jpg) Overall, the textual baro pressure on the web site main page is up-to-the-minute accurate - as is the broadcast.jpg on the home PC - everything else is off (low). There's still another instrument showing pressure that is also off - but I won't even go into that right now...

I've made sure that the jpeg create option has been checked in the options that pop when you right click the jpeg in question, as well as making sure that under Settings>jpeg file settings, that the jpegs are updated every minute and the path points towards C:\vws\root

What am I overlooking? Have I even explained the issue in a way that makes sense? Ideas?

Thanks in advance!

When you create the dial for Baro Pressure in VWS, make sure you choose the Sea Level Baro Pressure option and not regular Baro Pressure.  Also make sure you have entered the correct altitude in the settings of VWS.  It does make a difference.

SL barometer option - that was it! Never even saw it first time through! Thanks Sam! (Alt was Ok)

Glad I can help.  It's not un-common to see that error between types of Baro's show up often here on the forum.  Smile
