Hello, I'm trying intruducir my location but I do not let that negative values, in this case the length would be -5 30 16 W, it remains to negative values. The version is 1.9.2
Someone with you?

There's no such thing as "-5 30 16 W" (it doesn't make sense to supply a sign and a hemisphere); you probably mean "5 30 16 E", or more likely "5 30 16 W" (I think most of Spain is West of the meridian?)

Thanks, I've taken my position on google maps, and have turned to degrees minutes, if I put it positively, it gives me a wrong location, I am located in north africa. Is there another way to get my position.

Are you putting E or W into Cumulus for your longitude? If you are west of the meridian, you need to put W. If you can't work it out, please give your co-ordinates from Google maps and show a screenshot of what you are putting into Cumulus.

Google maps gives me these values: sll = 36.759164, -5.504594 indicating my position, and in the attached image you will see that I get the converter.

So your co-ordinates are 36 deg 45 min 33 sec North, 5 deg 30 min 16 sec West
