WH3081 Solar Readings.

Post by jyoung71 »

Hi Guys ... Is there a trick to getting the solar reading to display in Cumulus. I enabled the "Display Solar/ Extra Data" option in under Display .. But all I got was Temp Dew PT & Hum across the bottom. I am running version Ver 1.9.1 build 977.

Any suggestions gratefully accepted :)

Regards
Jason

It sounds like you have the wrong station type selected. Which one have you ticked?

Hi My name's Kerry. I'm new to all this but interested. :) I bought a WH3081 Professional Weather Station ..i am running the software that came with it: Easyweatherplus, version 1.0.
Does anyone know if there is any other (better) software out there that can be used with my weatherstation?

It's occurred to me that WH3081 support is only in the latest (beta) version (1.9.1); this is possibly why you haven't found it.

Yes thanks Steve, that's probably right.. "can I purchase any other software that will work with my Station?". .that should have been my question.

It wouldn't be right to recommend other software on this Cumulus Software forum! ;)
