Solar radiation wrong

Hello everyone!
I have a problem with the display of solar radiation.
The instrument always shows too little. I included a picture.
12 w/m2 are displayed, but in reality it is 120 w/m2.
How can I change this?

- only the gauge block shows incorrect values?
- is the shown value always 10% of the correct value?
- how do you 'send data' to your meteotemplate database?
- if your 'uploading software' calls api.php directly and has a log of the calls to api.php check this log ( or enable it )
- check your cache/apiLog.txt ( is generated by the api.php script and contains a lot of informations on the 'data import' phase )
P.S. Please provide a link to your meteotemplate site

No, all values are displayed incorrectly.
is the shown value always 10% of the correct value?
Yes.

I use the Meteohub plugin to get the data.
- if your 'uploading software' calls api.php directly and has a log of the calls to api.php check this log ( or enable it )
There is no log.

Ok I found your meteotemplate site, but can't find your clientraw.txt.
Please attach one ( recorded during the day ) annotating the correct value of the solar sensor in that moment. I can check what's going wrong with the solar sensor

Your clientraw.txt in field 34 ( solar radiation field ) contains 93 and this is reported by meteotemplate.
So your clientraw.txt contains an incorrect solar radiation value.
P.S. Cant read the images you attached

Okay, so parameter 34 is displayed correctly.
I think I found the problem.
Actually, the instrument should display the value of parameter 127. How can I change that from 34 to 127?

Install this version of the meteohub plugin, it should fix it.
Rerun the setup of the plugin:
- added a 'Solar Sensor Field Number' ( that you should set to 127 )

Thank you for the excellent support. I installed the plugin and it works perfectly.
Thanks very much!
