Re: [weewx-user] LOOP try problem ...

2022-06-18 Thread mup...@gmail.com 
I've changed to running on a RPi3 B.  It's back up and running, however, 
the LOOP error still exists.  After a time, however, I see that the system 
initializes and posts data again!  
NTP is running and keeping the time in sync, so I don't think it's a time 
issue.  To say I'm baffled, would be an understatement!

Re: [weewx-user] LOOP try problem ...

2022-06-17 Thread Graham Eddy 
as tom noted, you need to configure the vp2 console device to 300 secs to get 
reports each 5 mins (or change weewx.conf file to 1800 secs if every 30 mins 
sufficient)

this would not cause the read errors on the vp2, so is off-topic, but worth 
pointing out.
cheers

Hello Graham,
Can you enlighten me just a bit more?  Where is the "config error"?

Thank you!

Re: [weewx-user] LOOP try problem ...

2022-06-17 Thread mup...@gmail.com 
I used the wee_device utility and cleared the archive records.
Using the same utility, I've set the interval to 10 minutes.

tail command reports that archive memory has been cleared.  Now I wait ...

The default is 1800 seconds. To change it, either see the guide that came
with the logger, or use the utility wee_device
 with the
--set-interval option.

Did you try resetting the logger using the directions in the wiki
section *Corrupt
station memory
?*

I did change back to hardware record generation.
The hardware archive interval is being set for me.  Not sure how I'd change 
it, or what might be a better value.
This is the Davis logger and I did take your recommendation and re-seat it.

Re: [weewx-user] LOOP try problem ...

2022-06-17 Thread Tom Keffer 
This time, it is using hardware record generation. Did you change it? Also,
the hardware archive interval is 1/2 hour, which may be longer than what
you want / expect.

When downloading archive records from the logger, it is starting from page
zero, index zero, which is usually indicative of an empty logger. What kind
of logger is this? The standard one from Davis, or a 3rd party logger?

Try removing the logger, then reseating it.

You can also try resetting the logger. See the wiki section *Corrupt
station memory
*

Re: [weewx-user] LOOP try problem ...

Thank you for your response.
I have set debug=1.  I had tried changing to software record generation to 
see what might change.  It is now back to hardware.
This is the log file upon restart:

Re: [weewx-user] LOOP try problem ...

2022-06-17 Thread Tom Keffer 
It appears that "debug" is not on, so the information in the log will be
limited. However, I would guess that weewxd is having trouble connecting
with your Vantage.

Try setting debug=1 in weewx.conf, then restarting weewxd. Post the log
from startup through the first reporting cycle.

Also, any particular reason why you are using software record generation?
