In a previous post I included several issues, some resolved, which may have made resolution confusing.
To start over: The Solar Radiation never drops below ~600 W/qm, after replacing some Davis ISS hardware to troubleshoot/resolve my temperature issue and updating MB PRO software to 3.9 January 6 2019. Have now updated to "Meteobridge 3.9 (Jan 26 2019, build 12701), FW 1.4 " and problem remains. For example today:


I have double check the hardware connections.

I see new SW release on February 3, but the change log doesn't address this issue. And not wanting to present a moving target I have not updated.

Any ideas? solution? suggestions?

You probably need to double check your hardware again as a flat top Solar radiation pattern with sudden drop off like that is abnormal? Solar radiation doesn't suddenly jump up and should generally be a gradual rise/fall with some spiking as conditions periodically change throughout the day.

Flat top is a valid thought. However, the fact that this started at the same time as the upgrade of the MB SW to me indicated other caused. For example today's image, overcast snow storm. It is possible that the uv (also with flat tops) failed at the same time that the SW was updated but...
Also where I live, in a valley does give a quick rise and fall to received sun light.



The day the SW was updated is shown below. It is easy to see the time I rebooted. It should also be noted that during this same time that the temperature was not being reported correctly by the MB. see viewtopic.php?f=61&t=13518

Yes Mattk it was a sensor failure.

I would not have guessed that a hardware failure in one piece of equipment would coincide with a software update in another piece of equipment.
