Re: Multiple Upload Criteria

Thank you very much for the great tip about the ini file. I looked myself and its finger trouble, the public.... was missing from the upload url. I will have to be more careful as I scroll through the little window.

Re: Multiple Upload Criteria

The small htm files now upload at the realtime rate. I had the problem with the log settings and did not realise the htm files generated at the realtime rate are not copied to the local directory, and, the realtime upload is not shown in the status window in the bottom left corner of the main screen...

Re: Multiple Upload Criteria

Problem may have been solved. Weatherlink set the Davis logger interval to one minute. Cumulus was set at 10. I set Cumulus to 1 and it seems to be working. More tomorrow it's late here.

Re: Multiple Upload Criteria

I am having problems making this work. I have set auto update to 2 minutes for test and realtime to 60 seconds. realtime.txt and my small 60 byte file are only updated at the 2 minute rate. Nothing happens after 60 seconds, what am I doing wrong? The set up screen is captured in the attached file. C...

Re: Multiple Upload Criteria

We are a sailing club and are at the end of a poor internet circuit so weather information is uploaded to a remote server rather than served from the club. Members are most interested in the wind strength and direction. Because of the connection and bandwidth constraints I have configured weatherlin...

Multiple Upload Criteria

Weatherlink allows you to define multiple upload profiles so some information is updated frequently and other data is only changed periodically. Can Cumulus do this? Is there a way of just uploading the last 30 or so wind speed and direction readings so I can read the file at 2 second intervals and ...

Re: Problems Converting to USB Virtual Serial - One Solution

If you read the FAQ it says use the version you find in the Weatherlink Folder which on my system loaded from the 6.0.3 2012 CD supplied is the old version of the converter. It was as a last resort I checked for a new download. Here is an extract from the FAQ: You now need to install the 'CP210X USB...

Problems Converting to USB Virtual Serial - One Solution

I first tried the Davis Weatherlink software and then needed to convert back to the virtual USB serial converter to run Cumulus. I had no end of problems and tried all of the solutions on other threads but none worked. Eventually I found on the Davis website the following: WeatherLink Utility: CP210...

Re: Station Hardware

Thank you, can I replace either the solar panel or the batteries with a mains pack because here in the UK daylight hours are short in winter and it's often very overcast.

Station Hardware

I belong to a sailing club and we need reliable wind speed and direction data. We have tried a WMR180 but it eats batteries, updates are slow so we cannot see wind gusts and communication with Cumulus is patchy. The wind sensors are mounted high on a roof and batteries are difficult to change. It wo...
