Rain total not correct

Hi All

I'm a new user and have been up and running for a week. The issuse I have is that the rainfall total (on the main screen) does not = sum of rainfall in the dayfile. Though in today.ini it is correct.

The total rainfall on the display is yesterdays + todays rain so far.

Any thoughts - I have attached the today.ini and dayfile.txt files.

Many thanks

Tim.
dayfile.txt
today.ini

There's a problem with dayfile.txt, the date formats for all of the entries before 22nd November is incorrect. It has to be dd/mm/yy - have you been using Excel to edit it?

Hi Steve

Many thanks - That was the problem - I used Excel and it changed the date from dd/mm/yy to dd/mm/yyyy. All now fine.

Tim.
