Default Davis Weatherlink question ...

Sorry if this so easy as to be embarrassing, but ...

Fiddling with the sensor contacts recently produced a spurious
minimum (-67°C) which of course now appears in the Weatherlink
webpage display under "Highs and Lows". Is there a simple
way of correcting this please?

Philip

I'd leave it as it is Philip. Just claim you've moved to Worcester.

Open the 'Browse' window by clicking on it's icon. That's the window
that shows the raw data.
Highlight the time of the corrupted reading by clicking on it.
Select 'Browse' from the menu bar which opens the 'Browse' menu.
Select 'Edit'.
In the 'Low Temp Out' window correct the temperature.
Click 'OK'.

That should fix it.

Glad I spotted this, very handy for deleting spurious "tips" when one's been
cleaning the rain gauge. I'd been in the habit of unplugging the cable, but
this is much more elegant! Many thanks.

I still unplug the cable when I cut the grass. I then have to remember
to plug it in before I sink exhausted into the nearest chair. I fixed
that problem by putting an ornament in the middle of the floor where I
can't avoid it and only returning the ornament to it's usual position
after I've restored the pluggery to normal.

Is this a sign of waning powers?

Interesting - thanks.

Probably quicker than how I get there - I open a Plot (graph), go to the
day/time I want to change and (double) click on that point on the graph.
That opens the Browse menu at the day/time I wish to change.

Au contraire, it's a Cunning Plan.
