Changing Units on A Vantage Vue and in Cumulus

[Cliff]

I know it's not a wise idea to change units from Imperial to Metric or vice versa.
My Davis weather station has been set up for about 2 weeks and because I have always used Imperial measurements that is how I set up the station and Cumulus. Now that I'm publishing the data on my website here in Canada I think it would be a good idea to have it in Celsius.

I was going to wait until January 1 but I think it's best to do it now.

I'm not worried about the historical data in Cumulus or in the data logger. What is the best way to start from scratch without reinstalling Cumulus. Do I have to clear the data logger too?

And what happens to the data on the website? Can I start from scratch there too? I should mention that I'm using the Weather Blues v1 template and I've customized the pages a liitle so I don't want to have to re-install that either.

Is it possible to have the Vantage Vue console display in Imperial measurements and have Cumulus display in Celsius or does the Vantage dump the data to the logger in the same measurement as the display. I suppose what I'm asking is do both the Davis console and Cumulus have to have the same settings?

Thanks for any advice.

The unit settings in Cumulus are independent of the console settings. The only thing affected by changing units in Cumulus is the historical data. If you don't want to go to the trouble of editing all of your data to match the new units, you can change units, stop Cumulus, delete the contents of the data folder and start Cumulus up again. It will be just as if you had started from scratch using the new unit settings. Everything else should just work.
