...only work one day ahead?

Cumulus will not display uv or solar data. It will also only work one day ahead. I changed the day one day forward on my pc because I was hoping to see the sunshine data, but I couldn't, and when I put the date back again cumulus now only works a day ahead.

Have you selected "Display solar/extra data" in the display settings? Have you selected the correct station type?

I'm afraid I have no idea what you mean about "one day ahead", or what you thought setting your PC clock one day into the future would achieve. This is likely to have caused all kinds of problems in Cumulus as the data logs will have the wrong timestamps, and it won't know what data it now needs when it starts up.

You can change your forum profile using the 'user control panel', see the link at the top right.
