CumulusMX not downloading historical data

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).

CumulusMX not downloading historical data

Post by huntrashmi »

I have the newer 6313 console with a vantage vue. I have installed MX selecting the WLL/WLC option. I have entered the API keys and every other piece of info that it asked for. It will show the gauges and current info but will not download the historical data. It says no historical data is available. I have the pro account which says I should be able to download historical data. Any help/thoughts?

Does the "Records Began" option help?

You need to be clear about what historical data.

By default Cumulus will only record data from when you first run it. It will download historical data from periods after that when it was not running to fill in the gaps.

If you want Cumulus to download data from before you started using it, then this old Cumulus 1 FAQ still applies (but please use Records Began Date editor as above rather than editing the Cumulus.ini file directly as per the FAQ)
