Console Status Alerts - missing?

Topics about the Beta trials up to Build 3043, the last build by Cumulus's founder Steve Loft. It was by this time way out of Beta but Steve wanted to keep it that way until he made a decision on his and Cumulus's future.

Console Status Alerts - missing?

Post by tumutbound »

As a test, I disconnected my WH1081 console from the Raspberry Pi. I'd expect this to generate some sort of alert/error message but after 30 minutes, no complaints from CumulusMX.
The diagnostic log showed updates being sent to Weather Underground every 5 minuts (ac configured) but using the data from the last successful read from the console.

It would be nice to have some way to alert the user that the conole is disconnected or not providing input.

Not implemented yet. MX doesn't yet have all of the features of Cumulus 1. It will eventually.
