stops capturing data from temp08 after short time period

[cmjindy2]

I'm new to MCS Temperature. I'm using it with HomeSeer 2. I set it up and it is communicating fine with my temp08 unit for a few hours after I start HomeSeer. I have one temperature sensor attached. It works fine for a few hours and then stops capturing readings. I turned on the debug mode and it shows "SendQueue=" in the HomeSeer log for "mcsTemperature Debug" repeatedly every minute.

Example:
<TABLE cellSpacing=2 cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=0><TBODY><TR><TD class=LOGDateTime1 noWrap align=left>10/19/2005 7:48:16 PM </TD><TD class=LOGType1 align=left colSpan=3>mcsTemperature Debug </TD><TD class=LOGEntry1 align=left colSpan=8>SendQueue=</TD></TR><TR><TD class=LOGDateTime0 noWrap align=left>10/19/2005 7:48:17 PM </TD><TD class=LOGType0 align=left colSpan=3>mcsTemperature Debug </TD><TD class=LOGEntry0 align=left colSpan=8>SendQueue=</TD></TR><TR><TD class=LOGDateTime1 noWrap align=left>10/19/2005 7:48:18 PM </TD><TD class=LOGType1 align=left colSpan=3>mcsTemperature Debug </TD><TD class=LOGEntry1 align=left colSpan=8>SendQueue=</TD></TR><TR><TD class=LOGDateTime0 noWrap align=left>10/19/2005 7:49:16 PM </TD><TD class=LOGType0 align=left colSpan=3>mcsTemperature Debug </TD><TD class=LOGEntry0 align=left colSpan=8>SendQueue=</TD></TR><TR><TD class=LOGDateTime1 noWrap align=left>10/19/2005 7:49:18 PM </TD><TD class=LOGType1 align=left colSpan=3>mcsTemperature Debug </TD><TD class=LOGEntry1 align=left colSpan=8>SendQueue=</TD></TR><TR><TD class=LOGDateTime0 noWrap align=left>10/19/2005 7:49:18 PM </TD><TD class=LOGType0 align=left colSpan=3>mcsTemperature Debug </TD><TD class=LOGEntry0 align=left colSpan=8>SendQueue=</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere?

Thanks.

I think it is the setting to capture for more than a few hours!

First thing to look at is the IO window to look at the data coming from the Temp08. Make certain it is valid and does not contain ??? or a reading of 85. A more permanent record can be obtained by using the show raw data checkbox. It will then write the data to the HS log.

I opened the mcsTemperature I/O Stream window. It shows data still being captured:

08:10:03 | THU 08:19:03
08:10:03 | Reading Sensors...
08:10:05 | Temp #01[DA000800922A6110]=73.67F
08:10:05 | >
08:11:03 | THU 08:20:03
08:11:03 | Reading Sensors...
08:11:05 | Temp #01[DA000800922A6110]=74.00F
08:11:05 | >


The HomeSeer log shows the following during the same time period:

10/20/2005 8:08:09 AM - mcsTemperature - SendQueue=
10/20/2005 8:09:09 AM - mcsTemperature - SendQueue=
10/20/2005 8:10:09 AM - mcsTemperature - SendQueue=
10/20/2005 8:11:09 AM - mcsTemperature - SendQueue=
10/20/2005 8:12:09 AM - mcsTemperature - SendQueue=
10/20/2005 8:13:09 AM - mcsTemperature - SendQueue=

Post your mcsTemperature.ini so I can look at the settings and provide some guidance.

I've attached the file as requested.
