No "Wind Run"

I am operating two weather stations. One an Oregon WM-88. The other a WMR968. This allows me to use the WMR-968 to collect wind data only.
I am just becoming familiar with CumulusMX and have successfully accessed (seperately)both weather stations with MX.
When accessing the WMR-88 all data displays without a problem in the HTML interface and all data is FTPd without incident.
The WMR-968 station provides only wind data as the other sensors are not in operation. This has never been a problem with Cumulus 1. All wind data displays correctly and is transmitted via FTP. However when using CumulusMX the WMR-968 wind speed and bearing information displays correctly but "Wind Run" data displays as "0" and "0" is transmitted via FTP.
Is there soething that I have not set in MX or is there some other problem

As you presumably don't have an outdoor temperature reading, you will need to override the check on that as in this FAQ - http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#Cumulu ... eb_uploads

Normally you would need that setting for web updating to take place, but that depends on the interval that you've set.

Hello Steve -

As always "spot on." Working perfectly. :D Never occurred to me as wind speed, direction, etc. was OK - Wind run is, of course, a running calculation. :bash:
