Thanks Tom, 
Reference the update:

Everything was working fine and all fields reporting as necessary up until
yesterday.

I have the right system and updated my firmware yesterday, but now it seems
the 24 hour rain field is no longer reporting?

Rain shows on my graphs (just the Cumulative and last hour)

Raw data (p) seems to be missing?

Guess I'll wait a couple days to see if it changes or catches up? May need
to do more troubleshooting to see what changed...or maybe even go back to
the old firmware just to test.   Anyone else run into this?

PS: For software I am running Vantage Bulletin within Weatherlink 5.7.1.
Nothing to my knowledge changed with the software settings.

If anyone has any suggestions feel free to e-mail direct.
Thanks

Just an FYI, Davis released it's latest firmware v1.70 for the VP on August
21st. If you have a VP2 cabled or wireless station you can do a direct PC
install from Davis without the need for their updater gadget.

Per Davis http://davisnet.com/support/weather/software_frmwr.asp it works
with the following data logger/pc interfaces: # 6510SER, 6510USB, 6540,
6544, 6550 and 6560. I have the Weatherlink 6510SER data logger/pc interface
and the download was simple to install.

Take Care,
