Monthly rainfall and Date of last rain is wrong.

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.

Monthly rainfall and Date of last rain is wrong.

Post by courtil »

Hello everyone,

Working conditions:
OS: Win 10
Weather Station: WH 1080 (fine ofset)
CumulusMx Version 3 Build 3039

WH 1080 Station blocked for no apparent reason.

I reset and restarted Cumulus

I can not find the monthly rainfall on the site's homepage and graphs
Date of last rain is wrong.

What to do to get it all?

Questions:

For Relocation of Cumulus, what files are retained to ensure continuity device of data and archives?

The update to the latest 3040 version is it possible and desirable with my WH Station 1080 (fine ofset)

Thank you for your information

cordially

Do you mean in the Cumulus interface or on your web site? It's on the 'now' page in the local interface, and on the index.htm page on the standard web site files.
Date of last rain is wrong.
Presumably because you had to reset the station. It should correct itself the next time it rains, or you can stop Cumulus and edit today.ini

There is a FAQ which answers this.

Yes.

I see no precipitation on the site homepage:

I see no precipitation on the site homepage:

and also the rain charts:

The same rain on the graphics page of the local interface

I'll edit the ini file and possibly until the first rainfall.

Thank you for your information

cordially

These FAQs tell you how Cumulus calculates monthly and annual rainfall totals, and what you might do to correct them.

You will need to investigate the cause - perhaps there is a problem with your dayfile.txt file, this is often the cause. The MX diags file will contain error messages about dayfile.txt if this is the case.
