WU/HU with davis... rain total problem
« on: June 06, 2009, 12:14:41 PM »
So i am running VWS and WU/HU with my Davis VP2 wireless. We had a few t-storms last night/morning and my daily rain(12am-now) is .23in but WU/HU shows 0.00 and vws shows .23in so  anyone know why this is happening?(rain gauge is on in wu/hu) also is showing a reading that is a little bit high for my total rain(5.67in when its  really 5.07in. so any ideas???

Thanks
Josh

Do you have either disable all rainfall reporting or disable the rain sensor under the tweak screen checked?

Hm, that is odd... you are looking at the far left column of data correct?

If it is updating, I am not sure, the calculations are based on the changing rain total.
