Title: Error Writing after Download
Post by: sho23 on February 12, 2018, 11:42:27 AM
I tried unplugging/replugging everything a few days back, and it appears that it didn't fix it.

Anything else I can try? Usually the logger downloads only new data, but it downloads the whole 500+ pages of log. I am also unable to view the data to view...

Okay... some additional findings..

I think i should just go call davis and maybe send them that Jan file so they can break it up into Jan and Feb.

Emailed Davis, and experimented a little. Deleting the rogue future wlk file fixed the download. It downloads Feb, and created a Feb WLK file just fine. The leftover issue is the Jan WLK is huge (4mb) and it got so many duplicates and mistakes I don't know if it's salvageable.

*deleting the Jan wlk (well, after i backed it up) - and redownloading all 513 pages of log. Hoping it'll fill back all of Jan

Nope re-downloading the whole logger creates a new futuristic wlk (2027). and it didn't backfill Jan or Feb 2018. Maybe i'll cut my losses and just mark Jan data to be cruddy.

After re-downloading, deleting the rogue wlk, and re-downloading a few times, it worked! I ended up with GOOD WLK and data from Jan 13-now. I guess the first 2 weeks of Jan are a lost cause unless I want to go to my backup 4mb Jan WLK file and sort through it somehow.

Jruy's WLK Reader/Writer will help you with the WLK file massaging.
