Cumulus Support

Hi guys. Sorry if this has already been asked.

My wife recently bought me this > http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/maplin-profes ... tion-n23dq

I was wondering if it was possible to use the cumulus software without plugging in the base unit to my laptop?

I love the UI of cumulus and want to carry on using it.

Thanks in advance

Kevin

No, they (apparently) don't have the same USB protocol/interface available as the other Fine Offset stations, so won't work with Cumulus.

Thanks for the prompt reply. That's a pity, as I said I really like the cumulus UI.

I'm a little confused, may be I misunderstand the question,

I was wondering if it was possible to use the cumulus software without plugging in the base unit to my laptop?

You would definitely have to plug the base unit into your laptop to use Cumulus that I assume you have installed on your laptop.

If may be worth you trying this if you're prepared to install Cumulus on your laptop and plug the Maplin/FO base unit into your laptop.

Steve did only say 'apparently'. good luck.

Hi,

Is it even a Fine Offset (manufacturer) station? I vaguely remember a "review" (on this forum?) where I believe it may have been described as a Lacrosse.

The (remote) internal Wireless Temperature/Humidity sensor looks identical to a Lacrosse set that I use. But Lacrosse seems to be another of the "Badge" names which covers a multitude of sins.

Cheers, Alan.

I think it's one of the HP1000 stations that has been mentioned on here a number of times.
