Datum Setting

Post by wd40 »

I used Easy Weather to set the fine offset console Datum. Is there any advantage having Cumulus set the Datum through the Calibration setting page?

Cumulus doesn't write to the logger, it only reads.

I've tried to avoid writing to stations in Cumulus. The one exception is to set the station clock for Davis stations, where it is very important that the console and PC clocks are synchronised, and in this case the interface is officially documented.
