My Davis system has been running really well for the last 2 years. Needed no maintenance from me etc. Then the Envoy started tripping the circuit fuse (I think it was the Envoy rather than the power chord as I replaced with new Envoy and tripping stopped). I directly changed out the Envoy and rebooted the system expecting that all would be back to normal. Nope!

No data appears to be coming through:

Here are my diagnostic so far:

Any guidance would be much appreciated.

Hi,

We need to see the log from when you try starting WeeWX. Restart WeeWX and let it run for an archive period or two, then goto the log and take an extract from when WeeWX was restarted through until the two archive periods have passed. Post the log back here without alteration. It’s important you capture the full WeeWX startup.

OK, so WeeWX cannot connect to your Envoy, I am no Envoy expert but I am told they behave just like a console. First thing I would do is test connectivity from your RPi to the Envoy. Any chance the Envoy is now on a different USB port? Not sure if you remember the Establishing connectivity testing Tom got you to work through a couple of years back, but that is a good place to start. The instructions are now in the wiki rather than the User Guide but the link I have provided should work.

Make sure you stop weewx first before trying minicom. There cannot be anything else using the port. To see what devices are using a port:

lsof /dev/ttyUSB0

I thought it was installed by default on RPi OS but seems lt it is not - it works on my RPi, I must have installed it manually. Try:

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install lsof

then try running lsof.

Hmm, different to my Davis on my RPi which shows weewxd rather than screen. I will have to defer to Tom or someone who knows about screen.

I am using VNC Viewer (and always have) rather than SSH....not sure if that makes any difference?

vnc makes no relevant difference.
command = ‘screen’ below shows program ‘screen’ has a ‘pi’ user process open on /dev/ttyUSB0 at the moment. not weewxd. probably left over from earlier troubleshooting.
kill it with “sudo killall screen”.
check if any weewxd’s or screen’s hanging around with “ps -ef | grep -e weewxd -e screen”. kill them if you find any.
you should now be back to a clean state with /devttyUSB0 ready for opening. do “sudo lsof /dev/ttyUSB0” to be sure

Monmul, we have not definitively heard whether or not you are able to do the test listed under Establishing connectivity in the Wiki.That is an essential first step.

Use either screen or minicom. You may have to preface the command with 'sudo'. For example,

sudo screen /dev/ttyUSB0 19200

That’s a better start, did you hit enter a few times and then send TEST as per the wiki article? You should get a response from the Envoy.

The screen shows blank when I get to the point above.....after hitting enter a few times, it just sends the cursor down the screen......I tried typing TEST but no response...just a dark screen in the CL window.

If the cursor went down the screen, then the console is sending something back. Make sure you press <enter> a few times, then "TEST", all in capital letters.

You can also type "NVER". Again, all in capital letters. This will return the firmware version number.

If neither of those work, then you have a connectivity problem.

Neither TEST nor NVER returns anything....so, I guess I have a connectivity problem....which seems strange as  I did a straight swap out of the Envoys!

Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by "reseat"?

Reseat means to remove the logger from the Envoy and then reinstall the logger in the Envoy. Sometimes you can get a dodgy connection between pins on the logger and the socket in the Envoy (or console) and remaking the connection by reseating can sometimes fix this.

I have not had time to do the reseating yet....hopefully later today. One thing strikes me (probably becuase it has been so long since I set it up) I just switched envoys, how does the net envoy know what to do...I have not gone to any itiation or set up page etc....I just plugged and supposed it would go. Am I missing something?

What do you mean by "net Envoy"? If you are using a serial port like /dev/ttyUSB0, the logger should be plugged in via a USB connector, not a network connector. Or, are you using an IP logger?

Yes, apologies....was in a rush typing and did not review....."new envoy"......it should be...and "initiation" is the other typo!

Well, if you're sure you have the right port (/dev/ttyUSB0), and you have correctly completed the test (a couple of enters, followed by ENTER, all caps) and you got nothing back, then that is as definitive a test that I know of that you have a connectivity problem.

Do you have a USB version of the logger? Or, if you have a serial version, are you using a serial-to-usb converter? Either way, make sure your computer is recognizing the USB connection to the logger:

lsusb

If you have a serial version of the logger (very rare these days), then what serial port are you plugging it into?

The device "Future Technologies" is probably your Envoy.

One good way to identify a USB device is to unplug it, plug it back in, and see what the 'dmesg' command reported.    You'll tend to be able to figure out which USB port it connected to that way.

or just note which /dev/ttyUSB* comes and goes

once identified i like to put in a udev rule to create a known device file such as /dev/vp2

Having pulled out the line from the Envoy, rebooted, and hit lsusb, by elimination the "Future Technology" must be the one!

So everything reseated and restarted...unplugged USB to ensure that the Pi was seeing the USB......used "screen /dev/ttyUSB0 19200" after shutting down weewx....still blank screen (after a number Enters) with no echo back to TEST and NVR

Yes, you definitely have a connectivity problem that has nothing to do with WeeWX. There is an outside chance the problem is with your RPi. If you have an extra RPi around, try using it to connect through minicom.

If nothing works, a call to Davis is in order.

OK, so I decided to put the "old" Envoy back on ....the one that seemed to be causing the tripping of the fuse (the fuse has not tripped since I took this "old" Envoy out.......It now looks as if the "old" Envoy is working......is that what this log  is saying? Weird or what?

Possibly, but if you are using the same RPi with the same cable as you have used with your new unresponsive Envoy then perhaps the issue is with the RPi or the cable. I would be looking for another RPi or PC (Windows (ugh), Mac or whatever) and run a terminal window/program and do the basic connectivity test (send ENTER and get a response from the Envoy). I would even try a different cable if you have another. Two different RPis/PCs/cables etc not working would be unusual. If that fails to get a response from your new Envoy then as Tom said it's time to get in touch with Davis or their agent.

Hmmm! the only spare RPI I have at the moment is a 3A+ is that likely to have enough grunt to do the job? Oh! do you mean I could attach the "new" Envoy to a PC (running Ubuntu) and do the connectivity test?

Anything will do, no grunt needed, all you need is a terminal program of some sort, minicom will do the job on anything Linux. Windows used to come with some sort of terminal program. Not sure about a Mac. Certainly no need to install WeeWX, you just want to run the connectivity test with your Envoy(s) to prove it(they) respond(s).

Ok, that sounds promising. Was that the old or the new Envoy?

FYI the other testing commands are:

Testing commands
"TEST"   Sends the string “TEST\n” back.
"WRD"<0x12><0x4d>, ACK   Responds with a weather station type that is backward compatible with earlier Davis weather products.
"RXCHECK"   Sends the Console Diagnostics report.
"RXTEST"  Moves the console from the “Receiving from” screen to the main current conditions screen.
"VER"
"RECEIVERS"  Sends the bit map of station IDs that the console can hear, This is not the byte for indicating what the console selects to listen from.
"NVER"  Sends the firmware version number as a text string. This command is only supported by Vantage Pro2 (Firmware 1.90 or later) and Vantage Vue.

"WRD"<0x12><0x4d>, ACK .....not sure hot to use this command....is it just "WRD"?
This is the old Envoy

No data as such comes back....here....from the first "TEST" is the result of all the commands above in turn.

how much is ‘new’ and much much ‘old’? i.e. with the new envoy, are you using the old known-working data logger and cable?

Yes I am using the original data logger and cable that came with the old Envoy....I take out the data logger from he old one and put it in the new one...I suspect that the data logger may not be compatible with the new Envoy.....the new one was purchased about 3 years ago and was just put in storage and never used or tested. The product numbers are slightly different the old one being 6316 and the new one being 6316NZ

i do recall that davis introduced an incompatability between old firmware and new datalogger but i don’t recall the details. i’m sure a search of the forum archive would see if that was relevant

They did, but it was about 7 or 8 years ago. 

You really need to call Davis.

But from the tests on my PC, it seems the old Envoy is working....does it not.(so we do not have to worry about the new Envoy for now!)...so it would appear as if the RPi is the culpit....have I deducted correctly?

So, having put the old Envoy back on the Rpi (having shown it worked on the PC) this is what I get....looks like some kind of continuous Loop situation.

So, if it is the RPi then it is either a sofward corruption on the card caused by the repeated rebooting after the fuse trips....or else some hardward failure on the board was the cause of the tripping. Its strange that since reassembling the Envoy, RPi etc there has not been a fuse trip.

One other thought occurs to me...I have a powered USB Hub attached to the RPi(its a 3B)....maybe I should disconnect the hub and try the Envoy directly into the RPi......if minicom works that would point to the Hub as being the culpit....!!??

So you are back using the original Envoy that was 'tripping the fuse'? Regards the two beeps from the Envoy I understand the first indicates successful startup of the processor and the second verifies the installation of the logger so it seems your single beep does point to an issue with the logger.  Given you have things working again it might be worthwhile contacting Davis in slower time and finding out if you do have an incompatible Envoy/logger or if there is some other issue with one or the other. If your original Envoy just started working again it could just as easily stop as well; having a backup would be handy.
