Differences in reported rain quantities

Beitrag von Fredens »

Hi there,

My WS2310 has recorded (according to the history.dat file) the following rain on a specific day:
05:00->0,52mm
06:00 -> 1,04
07:00->1,55
08:00->6,22
10:00->0,52
11:00->0,52
12:00->3,11
Total=12,96

However,WSWIN, watching the history.dat file for data reports this:
05:00->0,2mm
06:00 -> 0,4
07:00->0,6
08:00->2,2
10:00->0,2
11:00->0,2
12:00->1,1
Total=4,9

I´ve set the "Calibrate Rain Quantity" to 1.

Can anyone tell me why this is and which data I should trust? According to another weatherstation nearby the rain quantity is 12,8, so it seems that my WS2310 is correct, but how do I adjust WSWIN to this?

Regards
Fredens

@Fredens,

I'm sorry, but you set 0.360 - not 1.000

Resolve problem:
Rename the wrong month file from WsWin (like wm_09_06.dat to wm_09.06.sav)
goto File, Converting weather data
here verifiy the Rain calibration factor -> should be 1.000
and convert the HeavyWeather data file again.

The there set rain factor is used for the WS2300/WS3600
