If you look in the status bar at the bottom of the Cumulus window, there may a message "Error: no response"; this would confirm that the station has locked up and needs resetting.
 
If you are using the "Synchronise" setting but are still getting frequent console interface lockups, then the clocks on the console and the platform running Cumulus may be drifting too far between synchronisations. Look in the diags[[diags_folder]] files for the word "drift" and see how many seconds apart the clocks are drifting. If it is more than 3 seconds, you will need to adjust the period that Cumulus allows where it doesn't read the console data. Stop Cumulus and edit Cumulus.ini. In the [Station] section, add a line:
 
FOReadAvoidPeriod=N
