Hello again and it's been so very many years. I have been very ill and moved twice so haven't been weathering much. My station is running fine and the display is all good. I have since change from laptop(now deseased) to a desktop running window 11, yes, yes I know it wasn't a good idea after the 30 day roll back lapsed.
So i need to put on the software for my station I thought i found it on the wiki but it appears to be a sort of black screen that pops up and although it connected and said the data is read, i haven't a clue where it is or how to view it. I'm fairly good with computers but not that good. The old programe i had opened up and display a nice chart of which i could change the dates and view all sorts of stuff. So i could do with some guidance please

In the black screen you will see something like
Cumulus running at : http://localhost:8998
http://192.168.1.158:/8998 (your IP address will probably be different)

Open the Admin Interface by entering one of the above URLs into a Web Browser.
So open your Browser which on W11 is going to be Microsoft Edge and in the address line (URL) enter one the lines.

The web interface will then appear so you can set up your station.

PS you need to update your signature Operating System.

FireFox is OK but Edge is a better and faster browser and it will only bookmark if you save it to your favourites.
