Hi,

The WH1080 (FineOffsetUSB) driver derives WeeWX field rain from the rain_total value obtained from the WH1080. WeeWX in turn derives WeeWX field rainRate from the rain field emitted by the driver. This should happen automatically after a clean install that has been configured to use the FineOffsetUSB driver; you should not have to change anything.

A few things you can provide to help us track down the issue:

1. Post a startup debug log extract. Edit weewx.conf, set debug = 1, save weewx.conf and then restart WeeWX. Let WeeWX run for a couple of archive periods and then take an extract from the WeeWX log showing the entire WeeWX startup and the first couple of archive periods. Post the unedited log extract here. If you need any help in obtaining a log extract refer to the Help! Posting to weewx user wiki entry in the first instance.

2. Post the [StdWXCalculate] stanza contents from weewx.conf.

3. Post the output from running WeeWX directly. This will show the content of the loop packets (lines starting with LOOP:) and archive records (lines starting with REC:) on the console. Let WeeWX run until you see at least one REC: line, take a copy of the entire output and post it here.

after a new install -without data loss- the issue solved. in first installation the weather station type was WS 1080.  in new i set to WH 1080.  i dont know if that was the cause the problem, but know showing tthe rain rate data. thank you!
