WS2350 works then stops after few days

[Peter]

Hi,

A few weeks ago I got a WS2350 from a friend, I installed weewx on RPI 2B. It worked like a charm. After a few days weewx stopped getting data from the WS. I have stopped/started the service, checked ttyUSB0 in /dev, looked into the forum, but could not fix it. So I re-installed the whole package from scratch. It was working correctly for 20 days then stopped again. I have no idea what to do.

Can't find anything related in the forum. Could you please advise if you have an idea what is happening:

thanks,

peter
