Hi Dave,
the fine offset rain gauges work exactly that way. You have to detect the tips as the switch changes state. The hardware and software are set up to do that.
I am still not sure what you're asking about these - they are expected as standard, are cheap, and don't need any intelligence. They are just the "simplest" solution as the software expects them, and the hardware is set up for them. You started talking about them as though they weren't an option to use, but actually they are the only feasible one. So is there another question behind this ?
