please see the attached image anyone? Cumuls 1.9.4.
I've had a few instances where I've had to go back and edit data due to equipment failure but I cannot get rid of this spike when my Davis Vantage Vue somehow recorded -60 odd C on 11/9/16 at 7.00am in the morning.
The low temp in dayfile.txt is 9.8c for that day and low temp from Monthly records is 4.4c.
Can someone help where I can go and make a file edit to get rid of this erroneous spike?
Thanks

Re: Temperature spike needs correction
You will need to edit the Nov16Log.txt file and find the line(s) with the errant temperature. Use a decent editor such as NotePad++ and make a copy of the file before you start

Re: Temperature spike needs correction
You need to edit the file Sep16log.txt, with Cumulus switched off. You will need to find the entries for around 0700 on 11/09/2016 and edit the erroneous temperature records. The Wiki page is at http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/Monthly_lo ... a_problems. There are comprehensive instructions on editing the data files.TwoTonTed wrote:Can someone help where I can go and make a file edit to get rid of this erroneous spike?

I think it is the Sep16log.txt that needs editing.mcrossley wrote:You will need to edit the Nov16Log.txt file

Re: Temperature spike needs correction
Yeah I did think twice about what month it was - but looked at TwoTonTed's location and the temperature displayed on the graph and plumped for UK format / Septembermcrossley wrote:Doh!
