Communications Problems
Checking the Communications Port
The WeatherLink software includes a procedure for testing the communica-
tions port to which your station is connected. Using the Test command will
help you determine whether the communications port or the data logger is
causing a communication problem.
1. Select Communications Configuration from the Setup menu.
The Communications Configuration window displays.
2. In the upper drop-down list of the Port section of the window, select the
port you want to test.
If you are using a Keyspan USB Twin Serial adapter, or a similar USB-to-
serial port adapter between your weather station and your Macintosh, the
port shown in the pull-down list will be similar to “KeyUSA28X181P2.2.”
3. Click Test.
The software searches all standard USB ports and should display a Please
Note window stating the COM port at which the USB connector is located.
4. If WeatherLink cannot find the USB connector at any COM port, an error
message displays, stating “No station could be found.”
If this message displays, contact Davis Technical Support. See “Contacting
Davis Technical Support” on page 13 for more information.
