9.4.34 Oregon Scientific Reporting Still Broken (James Sentman)

Wed Dec 23 09:52:46 EST 2020

I let it run overnight. Same results.  Frequent packet messages in the log, looks like all sensor units are actually updating.  Put the batteries back in the BTHR968 combo baro/temp/hum sensor and nothing is showing up from that unit.  Going back to previous XTension version for now.

I noticed that  a combo barometric pressure/temp/humidity sensor was not reporting new data even though the hardware display showed changes.  I pulled the batteries on that device to see if the packet messages would go away,  No luck even after a restart.

I pulled up the list of units on that interface and they all show current update times.  BUt every 5-10 seconds there is a new packet length exception.

There are too many combinations of these things :) Can you tell me which RFX interface plugin you?re using and if you have one of the older larger devices with the coax antenna connections or if you have one of the newer USB only devices in the small grey case with the wifi looking antenna and smaller RPA type connection for it?
