New Batteries in the UV SENSOR

Post by binbags »

Hi
Just replaced the batteries in the uv sensor, I then did a reset on the sensor and a refresh on the sensor page. The # ID had changed it’s number from 84 to 219, I saved this.
It looks as though the saving of this has caused it recomputed the weather data, is this normal? Although it has started a recomputation, the uptime shows 4days 8hours 11 minutes, this is when I did my last upgrade to 4.3a.
Any thoughts on this?:unsure:

Any time you make changes on the Sensors page and hit 'save', Meteohub does a forced recomputation. It doesn't know that all you did was reassign an ID number, but knows that something has changed with the sensor names/IDs and a recomputation is the only way to ensure that all of the chunked data is mapped correctly for graphing purposes.

With regards to uptime that's irrelevant to recomputation -- your last reboot was when you upgraded, and since then you've apparently not restarted the system. You can have lots of recomputations during that time, because that doesn't have anything to do with rebooting the Meteohub hardware.
