I've just started using Cumulus yesterday and the set up was very simple.
However, last night, my computer went to sleep around midnight and woke up this morning at 6AM, and the program did not automatically load up the data from the logger that was collected during that time.
Is there a way to force Cumulus to retrieve the data? Is there a setting that will make sure Cumulus does this automatically?

Re: Retrieve data logged while the computer is off
Cumulus always downloads logger data to catch up when it starts up. If you allow your PC to suspend while Cumulus is running, it will not do this, as explained in the readme.txt and the FAQ.
To make it download last night's data on this occasion, you can 'rewind' by stopping Cumulus and copying the contents the latest 'backup' folder from before the point where you allowed the PC to suspend, into the data folder and then starting Cumulus again. As you started using Cumulus yesterday, you may not have a suitable backup folder.
