Recover lost data?

Post by Bearwolf »

Apologies if this has been asked before. The mains lead to my latop wasn't plugged in properly and the battery ran out overnight, with cumulus running. Graphs just show straight lines for the period computer was off.

Is there any way to restore the lost data to Cumulus? I know it is on the datalogger as I have just downloaded it to Weatherlink.

Thank you.

Yes, 'rewind' by using one of the backup folders that Cumulus creates, whenever it starts up (in the 'backup' directory), and once a day (in the 'backup\daily' directory). Find the latest backup before the problem occurred, copy all of the files from it into the data directory, and start Cumulus.
