Hi There,
I need help or suggestions for a fault with my Davis VP2 Plus Solar and UV sensors.
I have a wireless VP2 Plus with Solar and UV sensors and about two weeks ago the solar and UV readings went to "------" on the VP2 Console. (the console has a power supply and batteries.)
I have changed the ISS battery, that did not make any difference; showing up as 4.4 Volts and reception shows 98%.
The manual says try wiggling the cables to see if the readings come back, that did not work, and I even made sure the connectors in the ISS were clean. No luck.
If I reboot the VP2 console the Solar reading do not come back, but once they did come back hours after a console reboot, but the readings disappeared two days later. The VP2 Temperature/Humidity and Wind readings are all working fine. The solar readings have been offline now for exactly two weeks.
The VP2 console has the latest firmware as suggested by Davis, but as yet no readings.
I tried Davis support but haven't had a reply.
Is there anyone that has seen a problem like this and could suggest anything to try. I am not going to reboot the console every day.
Any help would be appreciated.
Dave
