Barmeter reading is wrong

Post by bob49 »

Hi, Can anyone tell me how to fix the Barometer reading in Cumulus. I have an Oregon Scientific WMR986 station and Cumulus always uses the sea level reading and does not adjust it for elevation, so what it shows and up loads is wrong.

Thank you

Cumulus displays pressure corrected to sea level, So what it shows and uploads is CORRECT.

Absolute or 'local' pressure is meaningless for comparrison purposes with data from other sites.
