Reset values of rain gauge

I have an Oregon rain gauge which works flawlessly, except for one event last night: it did not rain at all but this morning the daily rain total is 1168mm ! it must be a transmission error, first and only time in 6 months.

I tried to change the value with a script like:

Code: Select all

lequel=indigo.devices["Pluviomètre RF"]
props=lequel.states
d=props["raintotal"]
lequel.updateStateOnServer("raintotal",0)

but the plugin won't let me do it because:

Script Error embedded script: state value updating of plugin devices is private

How can I correct this value ?

Thank you,

Patrick

Had same problem; aberrant values of 18" a couple of months ago and 52" this past week. Very annoying; posted here: http://www.perceptiveautomation.com/userforum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=8617Would be interested if there is a solution besides resetting the rain gauge and losing all data.

It looks like the only way would be to change the value in the Indigo database, this is where the plugin stores it's value I believe.
