La Crosse 2010/ 7000/ 2200/ 2500 type station problems

If no data is coming from the separate WS2010-15 data loggerl.

After inserting the batteries, you need to wait 20 minutes before any software should

access the data logger. Also it's a good idea to place the data logger away from the PC, and

put RF baluns clamps around the serial cable. Note that Weather Display gets the data

every 3 minutes or 5 minutes, depending on the station type.

Note, you can now use the newer La Crosse 3600 with Weather Display without the need to

run Heavy Weather, thanks to 3rd party software developed by Sandere of Denmark.

Manual upload works, but Auto does not.

I have set times to upload the web pages in the FTP/internet setup, but it does not work at

that times, but If I click on action, update internet now, it uploads the files. Answer: Check

you have the main internet switch turned ON in the connection setup in the FTP/internet

setup, or, if you are using the customise internet setup (i.e. you have the switch ON there),

then make sure you set the times to create AND upload the files their (using the customise

internet and file creation I recommend (ignore the not in use yet parts), because then you

have control!.

Which weather station type do you recommend?

If you can afford it then a Davis VP. A Rain wise MKII is a good station, as its also wireless

and has 1 second update rate. Next I would recommend a Oregan Scientific (or clone)

WMR968 type station. Next would be a La Crosse (or clone) 2310 type station, or a 3600

type station (only every 1 minute update rate). You could add a 1 wire weather station

(gives windspeed and direction for every 1 second update rate) to the weather stations with

slower update rates, cost only 90$ (US), with Weather Display ability to do that.
