Any ideas?

I can not communicate between my WMII and computer, it says check
comm port and settings, I have, I've even removed power from both WMII
and computer nothing :-(

Ok, back on-line again :-) Todays panic over phew.

At the moment I have bypassed the 'Davis' WeatherLink ISOLATOR (Part
7764). So the WMII is cabled directly to the PC. I now need to
establish whats wrong with the ISOLATOR, I may try another power
supply to it, as there's not a lot else in it.

I have been getting regular glitches with the system lately, the
WeatherLink software hangs up with the message 'missed archive point',
this has been occuring about twice a day. I thought it may have
something to do with John Danns WLCap programme clashing somewhere,
but I'm not sure now. It maybe that a fault has been intermittent with
the ISOLATOR which has occasionally broken the link and caused the
'missed archive point' errors.

Has anyone else experienced similar problems?

Thanks

Keith (Southend)

It was the power supply (AC/DC), connected another one to the ISOLATOR
and all seems to be working again. Fingers crossed thats the end of
it.

Hi, Keith,

I have had a few of those messages and then a couple of weeks ago, it
all stopped, like yours did. I switched everything off, removed the
back-up battery and re-started it. It's been working fine since then.

We had had a long power cut just a few hours before which could have
been connected, I suppose. I often find that switching off and
re-starting works with a lot of things which is just as well because I'm
at my limit with that!

ATB,

I have similiar problems with my Davis gear when there is a power cut. Makes
you wander what the back up battery is for, as it seems to be useless.
