rainfall counter

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.

rainfall counter

Post by courtil »

Hello everyone,

I have a problem setting "rainfall counter"
false value

For the month of February (02.18.2015) the counter is at 105.2 mm

After restarting the meter registers Cumulusmx: 592.8 mm
The value is not recorded in the parameter "rainfall" of cumulusMx ...
the home "today" in the "rainfall" still remains to 592,8mm
where does this number ??

Extract the file from February 2015

You can't set the rainfall counter value, it is read from the station. Sometimes the counter on Fine Offset stations just increases for no reason and Cumulus tries to cope as best it can.
