Title: GW1000 not reset rain on January 1st
Post by: broadstairs on February 28, 2023, 04:10:22 AM

My GW1000 did not reset yearly rain on January 1st as expected it's running the latest firmware. Is this a known issue?

Engaged a GW1000 at the end of 2022 and set the Yearly to what the HP2550 had. They both tally (188.9 mm) when I looked today, so the GW reset correctly. Latest firmware all around.

I'm beginning to wonder if this is a device failure. I have a GW1100 as well and that's fine so there was no power issue at year end.

I have 4 GW1000s , all with the correct date set for year, all running the latest firmware. However, I did have one that did not reset.
Because these were bought at various times, I have no clue if it was a hardware version or something else, or maybe, how it detects the "new year", and if it misses it and goes on. Again no idea

It reports to Ecowitt and that shows no gaps and no reset either. This is my original GW1000 from a couple of years ago.
