Re: Cumulus 1.9.4 build 1099

I only stopped using Cumulus 1 a month or so ago, only because my Maplin console usb lockup problem got so bad it made it unusable, the hardware that is not a Cumulus 1. As others have said "it never goes wrong" I started with it in 2012 and it moved through a couple of PC's and Windows ve...

Re: Console Locks up after a reset (Maplins N96GY) Any point trying to fix it?

It wasn't bad, I started by using Raspberry Pi imager to write plain 32b Raspberry Pi OS (Bullseye) sd card. Installed RTL_433 on it and scanned for the N96GY signals found them straight away, its worth taking a note of the names as you'll need them later, they look like "wind_gust.35.FOWHx080P...

Re: Console Locks up after a reset (Maplins N96GY) Any point trying to fix it?

2023 must be a bad year for Maplin N96GY's. Mine has operated for 11 years with just fhe occasional usb lockup and battery changes, however this year it started locking up more frequently until I was lucky if it would last an hour, batteries out reset was needed everytime to get it working. Tried a ...

Re: Maplin N96GY

Funnily enough my Maplin N96GY console has recently succumbed to usb lockups after over 10 years of continuous use, I used Cumulus 1 for those years. Console still works fine but I'm lucky if the usb connection last an hour before locking up. Because I have enough spare sensors etc I'm in the proces...

Re: Poll on which Cumulus version is being used

I've been running the same station (Maplin F.O WH1081) with Cumulus 1 [ v1.9.4 (10992) ] continuously since 2012, no plans to change, as others have said why fix what isn't broke 😎 Cumulus 1 does everything I want, uploads my data to my website and various weather sites (Met office, Wunderground etc...

Re: Tutorial for uploading to AWEKAS

Just set this up, pretty straightforward thanks to this tutorial, working fine with a very old, but reliable WH1081 station that I bought from Maplin in 2012. It has been in pretty much continuous use since then. Uploading to WOW, WU, CWOP, PWS Weather, my website and now AWEKAS :) Much appreciate t...

Re: FTP timed out

If you know which files Cumulus uploads to your site then you could configure an FTP client to upload the files using sftp. I do that to upload my weather cam pics to my website. I use FlashFXP (free version) to schedule an upload every 15 mins 24/7, it will even wake up the pc to do it, although th...

Re: cumulus 1 works very well today

But the netbook is not going to last for ever and your only option then is to upgrade, so why not do it now when it is in my opinion easy to do on Windows 10 and MX. Actually it's not ;) My Cumulus 1.9.4 runs on a Win7 pc ( it also doubles as a Plex server and I use it for video conversion) I put t...

It is possible to disable the use of IMG tags globally in phpBB, it's default setting is "allowed" but it can be disabled in the ACP, via Permissions, IIRC
