Re: Software for W-8681 weather station

I believe Easyweather does 'discard' some readings between its logged entries. I can see this in my debug trace where each time I read the data, the 'current location' pointer stays the same for a few minutes, until the log interval is reached and it steps on to the next memory location, leaving the old location for Easyweather to pick up later for the easyweather.dat file. This ties in with the 48-second update interval and the 5-minute (or greater) log interval.

This is similar to what Cumulus does; some types of station update every 2 or 3 seconds; Cumulus processes the data each time but logs to file only every 10 minutes.
