tweaking readings for errors

Post by Charlie »

It looks like Cumulus can correct for minor errors of almost every parameter except indoor humidity. Is this an oversight, or is there an undocumented line in the cumulus.ini that can be used to calibrate this measurement too?

There's no particular reason that there isn't an indoor humidity calibration setting, it's just that I tend to prioritise 'weather' in Cumulus, given that my time is a finite resource.

I thought that was the case - then I saw that indoor temperature was there. So then I thought it might be that there just wasn't space in the calibration popup, and it might still be available in the cumulus.ini file. But it wasn't in the documentation, so I thought I'd just ask LOL. Thanks for a quick response, Steve!
