Sun rise times etc

Post by HughCallaway »

Hi. How do you set the times at the top of the display (sunrise etc) so they are correct. Mine is saying the sunrise time is 6.03am and the sunset is after 18:00. Its not. Also is there a way to set up the monthly rainfall total to match the total rainfall for the month as my weather station was set up to start readings from 1/1/11 and I've only just discovered your software.

Thanks

Regarding the monthly rainfall, the total is calculated from the daily totals in dayfile.txt. You would have to either modify an existing entry to add in the additional rain, or add a dummy entry for another day, but you'd have to think about what values to put for the other data.
