Large tempdata.json & solardata.json files FTP issues

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Large tempdata.json & solardata.json files FTP issues

Post by GavinBaylis »

I've been getting a few glitches with FTP recently and I just looked and saw that solardata.json was 245,510 and tempdata.json 724,676 is there any way I can reduce the file size of these please or any parameters to change so that I only upload a small % of the data?

The size of the files is controlled by:
1. The number of hours you have configured in CMX for the trends graphs to go back. (Graph Hours in settings)
2. The number of data types you have opted to plot on each chart. (Data Series Visibility in settings)

Thanks for that, sort of kicking myself that I didn't find it :?

Tempdata now down to a more sensible 122kb
