My system: Dreamplug with latest meteohub. Vantage Pro2 with Weatherlink IP.

Problem: Meteohub doesn't receive data from Weatherlink. Message is "data gap less than 10 minutes".

Logfile:

When this happens only once in a while, no problem.
It probably happens when the ip-logger transmits its data to the weatherlinkIP site.
It was only so many seconds (see messages).
It simply means that the connection was lost for less than 10 minutes.
If it is longer than 10 minutes meteohub will read the vantage logger to get the missing records.
If less than10 minutes it is not worth the time spent and Meteohub starts recording the realtime weatherdata.

Hope this clarify things,
