Cumulus Support

Hi Steve
Dont think I will manage ( far to complicated for me ) to convert data back so culumus could read it. Could you tell me how to edit the 'timestamp' value today.ini to force the download of the old data which is still on memory of my W-8681.
This would atleast get me back to when I started using the culumus software.
I backed up all culumus files deleted from c-drive and downloaded latest version and you were right only reading data from today.

Thanks again Gerry

As Steve mentioned above, just edit the timestamp entry in the ini file to a time prior to the start of your data, then start Cumulus.

Yes, sorry, there was a crucial word "in" missing from my earlier post which made it somewhat unclear!

Hi mcrossley & steve
Thanks for your help as you will gather not a wizz on the computer
I adjusted date back to when I know data on station started.
It worked downloaded back to the date I put in.
Still a problem though Like its says rain totals dont mach up with my records.
It does say this would happen and to ammend look at FAQ correcting rain fall data but I cant seem to find it
Any thoughts
Many thanks Gerry your help is appreciated

If it's today's rain which is wrong, use Edit -> today's rain. If it's the monthly or annual total which is wrong, use Edit -> dayfile.txt and correct the appropriate daily totals.

Hi
opened file up each day from 14-9-11 to present day with a long list of data again please excuse my lack IT skills but what figure is the daily total
If I get this figure I will adjust to match originals
Regards Gerry

If you use the editor in Cumulus as I suggested, it should be clear which column is which. Alternatively, the formats of the data files are in the help and the wiki.
