Accumulated Yearly Rainfall Error **solved**

Meteobridge Pro total year rainfall is exactly 100mm low as compared to my vantage Pro station data.
Is there a way to edit this?
Using meteobridge 5.2 FW 1.4
Thank you

Under the [History] tab, select [Edit Hour Data], select Sensor [rain0total] in the drop don, then year, Month & Day to be changed/edited. In the Edit Hour Data window click on an hourly value and there will be a pop-up allowing to edit/change the value.

If you know exactly what months/dates/times the rain fell for each hour then each interval could be edited, or just do a bulk change for a particular hour.

So why is there this exact 100mm difference? Is the Pro and VP part of the same combined sensor system? If so there should not be any difference?

Thank you for your reply Matt.
I'll check each monthly total and see if i can see where the shortfall is.
The pro takes the data from the Vantage station.

I've just checked the Station setup in meteobridge and i see the rain cup was set to 0.01 inch and not 0.2mm so that would give the accumulated error i think.
I'll just have to be aware of this for end of year total.
Thanks
