Cumulus Support

Hi,
I did replace my old (failing) WH1080 with a WH3080.
This WH3080 has light/UV sensor and it is well displayed on the Cumulus console but there is no UV information's on the internet pages.
In station setting/type, I activated "Fine Offset with UV/Light sensor".
In Display setting, I activated "Solar/extra data".

Did I forget something?
I kept all log files from the old WH1080, may be I need to erase all and start new logs?

As English isn't my primary language, I'm not sure to fully understand some of the options...
Thanks,
Engo

Is it showing the UV reading correctly in Cumulus, but not on your web page? Can you give a link to the web page where you are trying to display the UV value?

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the quick response.
Yes, the console is well displaying the UV values, see attached picture.
Web page is: http://www.bruere.fr/meteoengomer/
It's mostly translated in French, but you know very well where it should be displayed...

The "Error" is red with following message:
27/02/2012 12:51:00 : Data input appears to have stopped - check your station and connections
27/02/2012 12:52:00 : Data input appears to have stopped - check your station and connections
27/02/2012 12:54:00 : Data input appears to have stopped - check your station and connections
27/02/2012 12:56:00 : Data input appears to have stopped - check your station and connections
27/02/2012 12:57:00 : Data input appears to have stopped - check your station and connections

Which is strange because everything looks to work fine!
Cheers, engo

I'm afraid I don't know where it is supposed to be displayed. Where do you think it should be displayed? Have you added it to the correct file - you have to edit the file with a 'T' in it - the 'template', e.g. indexT.htm. But you may not have called your translated file by the same name.

That suggests that Cumulus is unable to read the data from your station some of the time. If you zip up the diags folder and attach it, I'll take a look and see if I can see anything.

Hi Steve,

The cumulus program was also very slow and time to tuime seems to lock and no response.
I took drastic action:
Uninstall Cumulus program and data, clean all directories and entries. Then I re-install the latest version in C: (was previously installed on D:, on a computer running with windows XP).
Now, all is working fine. Data is well processed, UV radiation is visible on the internet page,...no more issues.

The message "Data input appears to have stopped - check your station and connections" doesn't appears again.

The only thing I lost is the two past years datas...not a big deal!

Thanks for your support!
Cheers, Engo

Why have you lost your data? Just restore the data files from your previous installation and Cumulus should pick them up.

I wondered that too. I can't work out how the presence of the data files could cause a problem of not being able to read data from the station. Unless perhaps the February log file had a disc corruption in it, and Windows was struggling to write to it, causing Cumulus not to be able to run properly?

Engo, I still can't see UV on your page. You need to take out Evapotranspiration and put UV in that position instead.

Hi Steve,

You are right, but I can't find a box to un-mark for Evapotranspiration and another one to mark for UV.
Should it be in Display settings or Station settings? or may be something to modify on html code?

Thanks, Engo

Cumulus can only put data values in to web pages where web tags exist to tell it where to put the data. It can't edit your web pages for you, there are no settings in Cumulus to determine what you put on your web page. You have to edit the html yourself.
