CUtils 7.3.0 beta 1
Hi Hans
This worked fine for the most part. There were no errors with the ....website command, the custom log charts are all present and correct. The only issue as far as I can see is the rather odd data in the solar panel. The current value is much greater than zero just a bit odd since it is night time in Jersey. CMX shows zero in the current solar panel.

Re: CUtils 7.3.0 beta 1
Thanks, I'll look into it.
The dashboard value comes from the realtime.txt so I am a bit surprised but if I can I'll come back to it tonight, otherwise it goes over the weekend.

Re: CUtils 7.3.0 beta 1
@Mark: this may require your attention, at least a remark. There seems to be something wrong with realtime.txt; something has changed.
@Andy:
This is your realtime.txt:
And this is mine:
Note the tail (or the last 15 fields):
your:
mine:
According to the wiki those must be :
45 evapotranspiration today <#ET>
46 solar radiation W/m2 <#SolarRad>
47 10-minute average wind bearing (degrees) <#avgbearing>
48 rainfall last hour <#rhour>
49 The number of the current (Zambretti) forecast as per Strings.ini. <#forecastnumber>
50 Flag to indicate that the location of the station is currently in daylight (1 = yes, 0 = No) <#isdaylight>
51 If the station has lost contact with its remote sensors "Fine Offset only", a Flag number is given (1 = Yes, 0 = No) <#SensorContactLost>
52 Average wind direction <#wdir>
53 Cloud base <#cloudbasevalue>
54 Cloud base units <#cloudbaseunit>
55 Apparent temperature <#apptemp>
56 Sunshine hours so far today <#SunshineHours>
57 Current theoretical max solar radiation <#CurrentSolarMax>
58 Is it sunny? 1 if the sun is shining, otherwise 0 (above or below threshold) <#IsSunny>
59 Feels Like Temperature
I miss a space between the cloud base and the unit (ft in your case) and the number for the solar radiation is 32115 in your case and 0 in my case.
As this is generated by CMX it will require some analysis by Mark.

Re: CUtils 7.3.0 beta 1
And I also debugged it all and concluded it is not a coding issue, it is with CMX.

Re: CUtils 7.3.0 beta 1
I have the same problem as Andy, Sun radiation = 32208, from the realtime.txt (b4048).

Re: CUtils 7.3.0 beta 1
See Mark's remark.
Problem will be solved with next (beta) version of CMX I presume.

Re: CUtils 7.3.0 beta 1
So... I downloaded the latest Utils thinking I can give it a go, check it out, and report back.
Noted need to get latest release of MX. Hang on, I can't find "CMX 4.3.0 b4048", then all was revealed when click on Hans link to Marks comment...
result...
Oh well, I wait patiently as I am still a pleb then in the grand scheme of things.

Re: CUtils 7.3.0 beta 1
You walked sideways into the group beta testers. Don't get confused. As you said wait or just participate (ask Mark). But maybe you better just wait outside the beta's, don't introduce docker in the beta circuit 
Edit: oh confused you with nossie

Re: CUtils 7.3.0 beta 1
I may have spoken saturday night like too soon. As the week rain total is not in realtime.txt it may be difficult to realise.
Unless @Mark is prepared to add it.
I will come back to this.
