Pro2 Export Rain Fall Is Zero

Post by Car54 »

I used the standard-imp.exp template to export the weather data from yesterday. All the data looks good, except the rain sums are all zero.

Here's a section of the exported data showing zero rain:

And here's a screen shot showing there was rain:

Is there something I'm doing wrong?

You need to have "store per-minute data" enabled on "Database - Admin" tab. Otherwise only hourly data is permanently stored. When you switch to export of hourly data it should be in sync what you see in the database.

The store per-minute data is now enabled. A little rain (0.01 inches) fell yesterday around 6:58am. All 3 weather servers with the uploaded data show it. Here is a screen scrape from Wunderground:

Looking at the data in the Pro2, the rainfall appears at 6:58 and then disappears at 6:59.

Per chance, is the data only stored to the nearest 0.1 inches?

Does rain0total refer to the rain total for that minute - not for the day?

As used in a Template then it will be relative to the Resolution setting. Using a 1 minute resolution then the total is for the minute, if using say a 10 minute interval then it's for the 10 minutes. If you were using say a Month [Time Frame] and Resolution set to [Days] then that would be the total for each day.

Outside of a Template then the selectors hoursum, sumday/daysum, monthsum, yearsum, alllsum and ydaysum applied to rain0total as well as specific use of sum.. provide varying intervals directly.
