Problem with data rain

Topics about the Beta trials up to Build 3043, the last build by Cumulus's founder Steve Loft. It was by this time way out of Beta but Steve wanted to keep it that way until he made a decision on his and Cumulus's future.

Problem with data rain

Post by icnmfabro »

Hello,
I would like to know why Cumulus MX 3038 marks me a rain disproportionate compared to the real one. today there was even a power failure, and so my raspberry and Cumulus were not working, and this evening the rain marks I:

19043.1 mm
Rate 0.0 mm / hr

High 136.8
16:10

This month: 36873.9 mm
This year: 36,885.6 mm

Cumulus is a problem?

Also I would like an explanation, I put on my router a virtual port for Cumulus to open it remotely, the page opens but then stops and I can not see the weather data, in practice I only see the graphics on the page. Does anyone know how to correct the mistake?

Fine Offset stations are well known for generating bad data; the power failure probably caused a corruption in the station's data. If you want to zip up the MX diags folder and attach it, I'll take a look when I have time.

Have you opened up the correct ports? You need port 8002 for the web sockets data. Note that opening up the MX UI to the internet, if that's what you are doing, means that anyone who finds it can change your configuration and access your passwords.

You've selected the wrong station type. Your station has solar sensors, but you have selected a station type which does not. Cumulus can't decode logger data correctly if the station type is wrong (the memory layout is different).

This is actually mentioned in the Cumulus FAQ as a cause of high rainfall recordings.

I have a Froggit WH3080 with solar panel for recharging the battery and light sensor and UV sensor, then that station type should I select?

I checked the station console and actually gives me a total month of 30mm...
I think the weather station console for the time is correct

You have a Fine Offset station with solar sensors, so I suggest you choose a station type of "Fine Offset with Solar Sensors".

Actually it selected a weather station fine offset, now I selected a weather station fine offset with solar sensor . I probably had not seen that there was this entry in the list ... :-) now I try and let you know .

Steve, since the station is still in testing, you can delete the data so far stored in cumulus MX?

You are likely to have other incorrect data, so deleting the data you have now would be a good idea. Just delete the contents of the data directory while MX is stopped.
