How to reset Rain Info

Post by rfcaddell »

I would like to set all the rain info back to 0, starting on the 1st of Nov. What's the best way to do this.

It's quite tricky to do just the rain. You'll have to edit dayfile.txt to set all the daily rain totals to zero.

Can I ask why you want to do this?

Morning Steve

I just got my weather station a week ago and was wanting to start the year for collecting data on Nov 1st 2010 and ending Oct 31 2011. If its better I have no problem resetting everything.

You won't have too may entries to edit then, in that case.

In the next (beta) build there's a 'rainfall season' facility where you can specify the month that your rainfall year starts.
