Re: Solar/UV Info

1. trees, bushes etc. can reduce the solar irradiation 2. even blue sky may not be without obstacles which attenuate the irradation e.g. areas of water steam (invisible but radiation absorbing) 3. some clouds can create the well-known cloud-edge effect which can create irregulaties and also readings...

Re: Solar/UV Info

no - it means that you will most likely get less sun hours as 90% is a higher threshold than 75% (unless the real sunshine equals anyway always 90% of the theoretically possible)

Re: CumulusMX Process Date

yes and no - you can change it while it is running - but if the day file needs changes or even an entry, you have to do that manually, CMX won't go back. It only creates entries for the past day at midnight or (same situation) when backfilling from ecowitt.net and crossing midnight the header descri...

Re: CumulusMX Process Date

@Cambium while running, CMX only updates only the current month logs and the .ini files => you can be at ease editing the older MMMYYlog.txt files with an editor, make sure they are in the proper sequence, no double entries etc. dayfile.txt will only be updated at midnight (respectively at the end o...

Re: CumulusMX Process Date

Excellent! Thank You. I decided to delete all files and just drag the backup I had from July 2023. Now I'm waiting for everything since then. Haha. Thanks for the ini tip!! Thats what I needed to know. Good reminder for next time. :clap: the only thing is - the retention time at ecowitt.net 5-minut...

Re: CumulusMX Process Date

I don't get the point here with Cumulus.ini the OP wants to download data from the Ecowitt cloud from date/time to date/time - the backfill option of CMX determines the start for downloading from the time stamp in today.ini and doesn't care about Cumulus.ini I never did anything to Cumulus.ini when ...

you have to edit and save today.ini after (!) shutting down CMX like below #Last updated: 23.12.2023 23:59:00 [General] Date=24.12.2023 Timestamp=2023-12-23T23:59:00 CurrentYear=2024 CurrentMonth=1 CurrentDay=30 then restart CMX - it will now load whatever 5-minute data is available from 24-Dec-2023...

Re: Solar/UV Info

look at Settings --> Station settings --> Solar there the methods for calculation sunshine hours from the Wattage (W/m2) readings received from a console are shown. You want to know the details of these methods, Google is your friend. e.g. https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1029/2006...

Re: Long timeout GW1100

I installed a new Gw1100 (did not set rain totals!) and it seems to work fine BUT: it refuses to update to 2.3.0 from 2.2.8 (which this one has) So my guess is currently that there is something wrong with the update server. I'm stopping the efforts now until further news. suggestion: contact suppor...

Re: Long timeout GW1100

@Gyvate: no way this device is updating and it keeps saying 2.2.9 is the latest version (while the other already has 2.3.0. Yes, I have version 2.0.46 but there is no way I can get it to understand to get 2.3.0, not from the phone, not from the laptop through the browser. The device looks normal an...

Re: Long timeout GW1100

try the WS View Plus app (latest version 2.0.46) - and, if already open, remove it from the smartphone RAM and restart it.
If it doesn't upgrade, try setting the WLAN interface (temporarily) to dynamic (if set to static) and reboot.

Re: Long timeout GW1100

you should update your firmware to 2.3.0 - in 2.2.9 there was still a memory leak which could make the GW1100 freeze and/or restart. This can be seen through the newly introduced variable "leak" which describes the heap memory of the device (can be seen in the custom server string, e.g. vi...
