Updating incorrect barometric pressure values
So, I discovered today that my pressures have been wrong since the station went up on 6/19. It was a failure on my part to calibrate the sensor in WL. It is not corrected, however I now need to fix all of the old values to adding about 0.5 inhg (the value it was off by). I know the sql db I can use phpmyadmin to fix. However, what other logs should I check? I am determined to fix every log and record, even if it takes all weekend. Once the Cumulus db and logs are fixed, I then need to fix the sql db powering my site...

Re: Updating incorrect barometric pressure values
I've updated the sql db's for dayfile, monthly, and realtime to reflect the correct values. However, I know there are more logs that must need to be fixed, as the records and charts still show incorrect values

Re: Updating incorrect barometric pressure values
Most of the Cumulus log files will need correcting, they're in the data folder. The format of the files is given in the wiki - http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/Category:Log_Files
Specifically, you'll need to edit your June, July and August monthly log files, dayfile.txt, month.ini, year.ini, alltime.ini and monthlyalltime.ini

Re: Updating incorrect barometric pressure values
I have everything edited except alltime.txt
That one seems like it would be extremely tedious. Any suggestions?

Re: Updating incorrect barometric pressure values
Do you mean alltimelog.txt? If it were me, I wouldn't bother. Cumulus doesn't use it,it only exists to allow you to make corrections to alltime.ini,although I suppose the information might be considered interesting in itself.

Re: Updating incorrect barometric pressure values
Yeah that is what I meant to say. Okay, I won't bother either. Looks like it would literally take me all night..
