Hi
I am replacing my old weather station, which I have been running for some time with Cumulus. I have searched for instructions but couldn't find anything specific.
How do I handle the new station in Cumulus? Do I have to disconnect the old one, go into Cumulus and set up new station type, then connect the new station? Will I need to edit rainfall or any other counters? They are both Fine Offset.
Welcome to the Cumulus Support forum.

If they're both Fine Offset, just stop Cumulus, unplug the old one, plug in the new one, and start Cumulus. You may have a rainfall glitch to sort out.

And if your replacing it with the Solar one, don't do what i did, and choose the STANDARD Fine Offset setting, remember the solar bit!!
