As we calculate ET (evapotranspiration) Cumulus also with the station WH 3081?Given that in many other programs already predispose x stations that function. I would not for that reason alone I uninstall Cumulus

Provide me with a reasonably simple algorithm that I can understand, and I'll consider adding it to Cumulus MX at some point. The last time I looked, it was horrendously complicated.

I have installed the standard version of Cumulus 1.9.4
So you're not saying that this feature of Cumulus will never be added?
Other softwere weather have this function. (See WeatherLink etc., etc.,)

If it were so, I have to change data management program ...
It is really a very serious lack of which I can not give up

Evapotranspiration data is critical in agriculture and those who manage a company regards this as very important ...
I hope you manage to add even on Cumulus (Standard version) Greetings and good work

If it's a "very serious lack" for you, then of course you should use some other software. It is not a "very serious lack" for most people. I am one person, doing this as a hobby (or it is supposed to be a hobby, at least) in my spare time. I cannot possibly add every single feature that every single person asks for, and nor would I want to.

If someone is using Cumulus for a business, for "critical" applications, with a cheap, unreliable Fine Offset station, then I suggest they have a re-think about how they are running their business!

WeatherLink provides it because Davis weather stations supply that value. Cumulus also provides the ET for Davis stations that are fitted with a solar sensor.

My station is equipped with solar sensor (Whether that UV solar radiation) and is a WH 3081
Just like a Davis-I bought this station just because I'm interested in the figure of ET otherwise I would have kept my old pce without solar sensors.In addition I can guarantee the functionality of this season which I think is one of the best
I am obliged to find software that give me back the value of ET
Thanks anyway
I hope someday you succeed too

Greetings

If you can help in planning your cumulus also have a look at this page I apena placed on my site ..
It is used to calculate the data of ET ..
maybe making a change in this script might be able to solve the BIG PROBLEM also cumulus.
What do you think about it?
This is my new calculation page ET: http://stazionemeteobisignano.it/NOAA.php

I solved but now I have the problem with the separator ","
I could use the data returned from cumulus is or whole, or "."
How can I do?

However it could serve to update cumulus with this feature ...

If you want to attach files

Try...

<?php echo str_replace(',', '.', $latitude); ?>

etc.

I thought it was a lack of competence not of "Wanting to do"
For me it's a hobby, not a job mind you too
With best regards
