Weatherlink IP no function

[Herbert Eberhardt]

Hallo, after many years the Weatherlink IP no function, no LED, no answer.
I tried many time to plug off and on, wait 30min and more.

I have a Vantage Pro 2 and use an Raspberry Pi for weewx.

I have to buy a new communication port, the Weatherlink IP ist old and not avvailable.

I see the Davis Datenlogger LIVE 6100, the Davis WeatherLink Datenlogger 6510 Seriell Software PC COM-Port and Davis Weatherlink Datenlogger 6510 USB Software PC

which is the best choice?

These days, the 6510USB version works best. Serial ports are extremely rare now.

Hello Herbert,

My choice would be the USB Data Logger . Because the Raspberry PI , and many other modern computers,does not have a COMM port, you would have to add a COMM port or use a SERIAL to USB adapter. Many years ago the Davis USB Data Logger seemed to have issues and it seemed better to get SERIAL, even if you had to add a SERIAL to USB adapter. Thankfully nowadays the Davis USB Data Logger seems very reliable, and much more versatile for use with modern computers lacking COMM ports. 

2 Years ago I replaced a complete 13 Year old  VP PRO system with a serial data logger, with a new VP Pro  with a USB data logger. I have had absolutely no problem whatsoever with the USB Data Logger.

Thanks,

Paul
