Actually, looking through the code, the engine would do the same thing for any type of hardware: it always reverts to the hardware archive interval, even if you request software record generation.
Clearly, that's wrong. I've changed this in commit c9a8c0 <https://github.com/weewx/weewx/commit/c9a8c099e4f090152dd4aa74cc943f25d3c0e6a1> . Pers, if you want to try the new semantics, replace your copy of engine.py with this one <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/weewx/weewx/c9a8c099e4f090152dd4aa74cc943f25d3c0e6a1/bin/weewx/engine.py> .
