On my VP2 console, I would manually edit the "daily rain" figure when ever we received snow. I just took the liquid amount that the NWS office in my town recorded and put that into the console over the winter so my rain totals for the year would be somewhat accurate.
But now I've added an Envoy with the WiFi logger running Weather Display. Is there a way to enter in "daily rain" into the Envoy via Weatherlink? I'd prefer adding it to the Envoy if possible so the hardware's month/year rain stays correct as well.
I didn't see an option via the WiFi logger, so I'm guessing WL 6.04 should do it somewhere. Just can't find the option.

So is adding a snow value from an unrelated site meaningful in an overall rainfall total? An Envoy is not the same as a console, you can edit the monthly totals under the Rain menu. you can edit individual archive intervals for any sensor under the browse menu

Only year rain can be set, not daily.
In WFL will be ASAP :grin:
but for instant you need to use WeatherLink

Matt: for me yes it is. The NWS office isn't all that far from my house. My problem is that I'm out on the prairie and the winds prevent me from catching snow in a useful manner to be melted and measured. The NWS has a setup to capture the snow and do the melt.
I don't like that my monthly and annual rainfall appear to be behind, when I actually did receive precip. So I like to enter in the daily rain the day after the NWS posts their data. When it comes to snow events, I track pretty close to NWS amounts.

I just updated to 2.08. Everything went great. If you can get the ability to "add" in daily rain like the console, that would be awesome.
You truly have a great product and support. Thanks.

I have edited in HEX VP2 firmware and there is no command to set daily rain, only year rain. In console manual there is option to set daily, but with commands can't do :-(

Well, that sucks. Thanks for checking.

Isn't it possible to use EEBWR to RAIN_DAY_TOTAL START + 2792 // 25 || 2 ((for VP2 at least), but obviously depending whether or not you want to mess directly with the EEPROM?

Hold my beer :)
And let me have some little time.

No this is only GRAPH data, it is not working.
Console has 4kB EEPROM with settings and graph and another 4kB for LOOP and LPS.
4 KB of processor memory, which is used to store the current sensor data, today’s high/low values, and other real-time values. This memory is not directly available to the PC! Commands such as LOOP and LPS, provide access to the most useful and important of these data values.
I can't make daily rain adjustment. That could be good method to correct the defect in heavy rain rate. :-(
