Cumulus Support

Is it possible to have the time range for the gauge popup plots to be different from the range for the trend graphs? I would like to have the popups to cover a shorter time (say 1 day) but have the trend graphs to cover say 7 days. None of my searches have hit upon a method to do this. If it is possible, any clues to achieving it would be appreciated.

Depends if you are using Cumulus or CumulusMX plus the static graphs package I put together?

I'm using CumulusMX (3043). As for the statics graphics package, probably not because I don't know what that is! As you can no doubt tell by this reply, I'm somewhat of a novice.

Edit: Well on reflection and checking back I have indeed installed your scripts to get the gauge graphs. Indeed you and Steve helped me with a problem with that process - my web server provider at the time had an old and incompatible version of php so I ended up changing providers. So the answer to both questions is yes.

And just to admit another error I have made, I think I should have posted this in the CumulusMX>Server Generated Graphs for MX topic.

Right, the next question is are you using the JSON data, or a SQL database?

JSON - It just graphs all the data provided by MX, so you would have to change the MX config for Graph Hours, but that will affect all the Cumulus graphs.

SQL - The graphSettings.php has a parameter to control the period.

Thanks. I'm only using the JSON data but its about time I went down the database track.

My apologies for presenting such a deficient and inadequately researched question. I think my problem in getting off first base here has been the long period of not tinkering with the website since the time I went to Cumulus MX (January last year), so my understanding has gone backwards - not that it was good beforehand! And of course I didn't do as much background investigation before blurting out my problem via the forum.

Much of the stimulus to enhance things has been some limits to data presentation available by the standard website - and having a look at your site gave me many good ideas!
