WS3083 Missing data

I have a new Weather station Aercus WS3083 running Cumulus 1.9.4
The problem I am having is that under the heading Recent Extremes the Min Temp and Min Pressure are reading 0.0
All other reading seem to be working fine.
Can anyone help

You had told Cumulus not to use the data from the station's logger, so when you started it up this morning it had no data to use for the period since it was closed down yesterday, so yesterday's and today's data is incomplete and the highs and lows are invalid.
You changed the setting this morning, so you shouldn't see this again. If you stop Cumulus and 'rewind' to the first start up this morning using the backup files that Cumulus took at that point (copy the files to the data folder; see the FAQ for more information), it will now download the missing data and today's and yesterday's highs and lows should be correct.

Thank you very much for your help
It had not been ticked previously so I worked out that was the problem but did not realise I needed to revert the data.
All is now fine and I have learnt a lot.

I have one more request as I am new to this.
Could you take a look at the Station settings to make sure I have everything set ok.

You need to look at the help to see what the options do; it just works with the default settings, and you can adjust the settings as you wish. Setting 'confirm shutdown' and 'restart if data stops' is probably not a good idea (as it will ask for confirmation). Your other settings look OK (but that doesn't mean you shouldn't change them if you wish). You will likely find that you need to play with the solar settings to get the sunshine logging working realistically.

Thanks
I was concerned if I should have Synchronise Fine Offset reads ticked or not as I could find nothing about this.

Either set it now (it has very little overhead) or wait to see if your station has the problem mentioned in the help for that setting. See the very long thread which is the top 'sticky' in this section of the forum.
