Rain data

Post by Bazz »

Hi, can anyone help.
I just purchased a N96FY from Maplin got everything working, but the rainfall data looks like the decimal point is in the wrong place instead of reading 3.2mm it reads 39989.2mm. im new to this so please be gentle.
Thanks Bazz

Which rainfall data? Which particular figure? On the console or in Cumulus, or both?

If you mean in Cumulus, please zip up the diags folder and attach it. Instructions are in the post linked to near the top of the forum: "Please click here before posting..."

Yes, you edited the post after I read it, so I had no way of knowing that you had attached a file. But the file is empty anyway; please read the instructions again.

That's the Cumulus setup file.

Here are the instructions:

In Windows Explorer, open the Cumulus installation folder (normally C:\Cumulus). Right-click on the 'Diags' folder, and from the pop-up menu, select 'Send to -> Compressed (zipped) Folder'. This will create a file called Diags.zip. Post your message in the forum, and attach the file using the 'Upload attachment' section below the area where you have typed your message (browse for the file, then click 'Add the file').

You had the wrong station type selected previously, hence the faulty data. You've now corrected the station type. It's going to be quite hard to correct the data, as so much of it will be wrong, so you're probably better off deleting it and starting again - stop Cumulus and delete all of the files in the data folder. Don't delete the data folder itself.
