wmr200 rain issue

Hi,

I have a Oregon Scientific WMR200 with Weather Display 10.37S69.
When it rains weather display dont shown data until has 1 mm. Never it shows data as 0.5 or 0.3, but works fine above 1 mm when it’s 1.1, 2.8…

any idea?

The WMR200 rain gauge has a minimum resolution of 1 mm, it cannot show less than this.

I do agree, however, that I have seen 1.0, 1.1 and even 1.2 mm displayed on WD at different times. Don’t think I’ve ever seen 2.8. . .!

I have attach a snapshot of a my table.

Why rain_rate became 0.0x or 0.XX if the minimun resolution is 1? :?


Because the rain_rate is a calculated “moving average” of the total amount of rain that has fallen in the last x minutes divided by x. It is shown on the main screen as mm/min and mm/hr.

I do not know what time period Brian uses for x in WD.

Thanks Bitsostring.
