Yeah no issues with it picking up data from the sensors

[weewx-user] Re: weewx.WeeWxIOError: Unable to read hardware type
Just in case anyone runs into this, turns out you need to reset the data
logger. Below are instructions from Davis:
- Disconnect the USB Datalogger from the USB cable
- Remove all power from the console that I assume the USB datalogger is
installed in (remove all batteries and AC power)
- Remove the USB datalogger and check for bent pins and make sure pins
are straight in the console
- *Leave without power for 1 full minute*
- After 1 full minute, slowly lineup and install the USB datalogger,
push VERY VERY hard to make sure it is installed very snug
- Connect the USB cable to the USB Datalogger
- *LEAVE BATTERIES OUT*
- Connect console with AC power
- Once you see, “Welcome to Davis………” message, hold down the
button on the console 3 seconds to bring it back to the home screen
After you do that restart WeeWx and it should be back up and running.
