Hi, welcome to the forum

When you say 'crash' does Cumulus actually shutdown with an error message? If so, what ?

Readings of 999 are often an indication that your station has lost it's connection.

Could you clarify - is it crashing or displaying strange data?

If it's crashing, it should produce a bugreport.txt file (assuming you're not using the beta; you don't say which version you are using). Please attach the bugreport.txt file.

If it's not actually crashing, please explain exactly where you are seeing the incorrect values; a screenshot would be useful. Please zip up the diags folder with your monthly log file and dayfile.txt and attach the zip file here.

Hi,
Attached is a bugreport; second time today, and two 'crashes' yesterday. No unusual weather and PC seems to be running OK.

exception class : EInOutError
exception message : I/O error 112.

main thread ($2b0):
00749533 +3c7 cumulus.exe MainUnit 5521 +54 TMainForm.RealtimeFTPUpload
00749bde +032 cumulus.exe MainUnit 5623 +9 TMainForm.RealtimeTimerTimer


It's crashing processing one of your 'extra' files at the realtime interval; this one, probably: C:\Cumulus\cumulusxml.tpl

I/O error 112 means 'not enough disk space'.

It shouldn't have crashed. But then, there are lots of things it shouldn't do. Or should do :lol:
