WS90 and 2550 console no rain graph
« on: May 27, 2022, 07:02:29 AM »
I have a 2550 console in addition to my GW2001 station (WS90 with GW2000)
I do not see a graph for rainfall on the console even though it has rained
I use the latest firmware (1.80) on the console
I do not yet have a indoor and barometric pressure sensor, but I don't think that is the cause
Maybe a bug in the firmware?
Also detailed calibration of the WS90 rain, as in the GW2000, is not yet possible on the console, but that will be fixed on the next firmware update I read elsewhere on this forum

(assuming your HP2550 console has the WS90 registered)
have you selected "piezo" for your rain gauge in the console settings ?
If the option is set to "traditional" you won't see anything unless a WH65/WS69 or WH40 is connected to the console.

I selected piëzo rain gauge as the preferred device on the console

Edit:

I cycled through the rain gauge selection and checked the graphs
Rain is showing on the graphs now, strange....with piëzo sensor selected

Today's rain does not appear on the rain graph on the console
On the data page on the console rain is showing

Maybe a bug, all other graphs are correct

With the WH40 the rain graph does work
With WS90 not

With WS90 not
I tried now with both, connected my WS90 to my HP2551:
- with my HP2551 and my WH40 (traditional priority)
and
- with my HP2551 and my WS90 (piezo priority) 
in both cases the graph was drawn.

what I still have to exclude is that the WH40 data were written to disk and used for the graph while both WH40 and WS90 were connected.
Now disconnected the WH40, set priority to piezo and connected the WS90 - let's see what the next rain (some possible in the coming hours) is going to give.

in the combination WS90 + piezo priority the HP2551 continues to write the graph (and WH40 deactivated).

1. can you post a screenshot/photo of the HP2551 SensorsID page ?
2. did you update the console firmware to the latest version (1.8.6 or 1.8.7) ?

Hi Gyvate,
Yes I updated software on console to 1.8.7. The console pickups everything except rainfall data. On ecowitt website there is no rainfall graph,
and also sensor array battery is low.

Moreover, I have tested another ws90 and still the same problem..
I registered/deregistered between those two ws90 sensors, but no luck, no rainfall data.

Moreover 2: I insert battery To WS69, registered, and console pickups rainfall data, also shows rainfall tab on ecowitt website, sensor array battery ok.

On this stage console pickups everything from ws90, but rainfall from ws69. Weird....

So the issue is with ws90, but I don't know what else I could do..

Including solar and UV? reason I ask is that the rain sensor, the solar input for charging the capacitor, and the solar and UV sensor are located in the top portion.

Since you are seeing a low battery as well, leads me to think that there be an issue with the top or the connector to it.

What are your values for the capacitor ?

How I can check capacitor values?

The last thing i could try is update ws90 firmware, however i don't have micro usb cable....

Ps, bought ws90 on amazon and second one, i ordered by mistake, so i was able to try 2 different ws90. Both no reading rainfall data.

I inserted 2x brand new energizer batteries, so the issue is not with powering..

I'm not sure on how to get the values from WSView (+) as all I see is a bar graph. Same from the web interface. I may just not have looked long enough . I get mine from Ecowitt.net , since I look at that more that anything else with multiple consoles.

From my GW2000, GW1100, GW1000 on Ecowitt.net , there is a a battery tile , an in that tile, should be something like this.
I do not know how your console sends its data, but I will make an assumption, it should be the same.

Edit: If you are able to send your data with Olicat's EAR tool using a custom server option, you can also see it in the data there.

did you reset the WS90 ?
a) soft reset - press reset button
if it doesn't change anything
b) hard reset
take batteries off, cover top (solar panel) with black tape and wait until the LED stops blinking
(can take up to three days) - then re-insert (new) batteries

I did hard reset and now:
1. Battery status is ok,
2. Console shows rainfall data perfectly fine :)
3. Console not sending rainfall data to any of services ( WU, Ecowitt, WeatherCloud ) :(

Have you tried the EAR service?

''For those customers who purchased some newly developed sensors, like air quality sensors (wh41, 45), lightning detectors ( wh57), soil sensors, etc. If your console has its console firmware upgraded, but when its wifi firmware is not upgraded, then the WiFi will not pass these new sensor data to the cloud service on ecowitt.net. Please do this to overcome this problem:   

1. install "WSView Plus" app.

2. run the app, and make sure the phone is connected to the same wifi network as the console.

3. tap the device displayed on the device list page, it will pop up a message showing " new firmware found and asking for upgrade" please choose "yes" and complete the firmware upgrade.''

Will check once at home :)

UPDATE: WiFi firmware update did the job :) All working perfect now :)
