Hello to the community,

I wish to ask some experience user about strange behaviour of our Vantage Pro2 Plus cable station.

Sometimes we have got nonsense values of WindGust.

For example some days ago (2018-11-10 -- http://weather.sh.cvut.cz/weather/NOAA/NOAA-2018-11.txt) we have got 233 mph (375 kph). I guess that problem is in station itself, I'm?

When I look into wview-archive.sdb file I observe value so I think it got from the station itself (please check a PNG attachment).

May I check it some way if it's problem with hardware (anemometr) or is there possible problem with wview?

Many thanks for any feedback.

Regards, Firestone

the controller board on the station does go wonky after a number of years (about 8 in my case, when rainfall readings went crazy) and eventually needs to be replaced

We are currently running our weather station for 8 years and 8 months...hmmm. Thanks a lot for your feedback. I will contact our local dealer what can be done in this case.

Regards, Firestone
