ws-2315/Heavy weather

(1/1)

magnumrtawd:
I have a WS-2315 and a Heavy Weather software program that has worked for many years with my Windows XP desktop.  Even after uninstalling and reinstalling the software several times the H/W screen on my computer remains grayed out and will not display currant info.  Any Ideas??

waiukuweather:
sometimes the serial chip on this weather station console is known to just simply die
and so the only solution is a new console

DanS:
Try plugging and unplugging the RJ-11 phone type plug on the serial cable going into the console several times. Be sure the other end (DB-9 connector) is screwed in tight. I assume you checked in HW the setup comm port settings already (9600, 8, 1, none). Check on the PC's "Device Manager" / "Ports" for errors.

Thanks for the reply.
I have tried all of those options.

Wxwatcher56:
Does anyone know how to wire up the RJ11 to db9 cable for the WS-2317 weather station.?

I have the old ws-3610 serial RJ11 to db9 cable but does not work on this. I had an old WS-3610 station
before the display went bad and now using the backup WS-2317 model. If I can rewire the pins on that RJ11
I can get it to work I hope.

Thanks!
