Hi all I have been uploading to Weather Link for a number of years ,but lately my console loses connectivity with Weatherlink program  ,PC is set to never go in sleep mode ,also console is on a battery backup plus I have fresh batteries in as well ,it is cabled with USB and all I have to do is unplug and plug back in to get it back online .it is also occurring sporadically sometime it will stay on days at a time and sometimes only a few hours. anyone ever run across this issue .

Being that its a direct connection to the PC that's a tough one.
Just a suggestion but what about updating the drivers on your USB connection. I seem to remember a long time ago when I used to do that the drivers had to be updated regularly.
Also it may be a software issue. WL isn't exactly cutting edge technology. Maybe try one one of the other software programs like Cumulus or Weather Display and see if the issue continues.

You can look at the device manger, universal serial bus controllers, look for your USB port (I think it is 3) and double click on it and check the power management and uncheck allow the computer to turn off this device.

Garth Bock:
By losing connection,  do you mean the bulletin mode just closes ? Or do the charts just stop updating ?

Mattk:
Would be looking at the computer and drivers.
