Catch up feature with new PC
After successfully running Cumulus with my N96GY for a couple of weeks, my PC's hard drive unexpectedly crashed and was sent away for repair for three weeks. The data on the hard drive was lost and I got a brand new hard drive. During this period my weather hub had kept a store of the data on its internal memory. Now that my PC is back, I reinstalled Cumulus to try and download all the data from my weather hub, but it hasn't done so and the catch-up icon hasn't flashed. Is it possible for it to catch up the previous data and if so, how?

Re: Catch up feature with new PC
Regarding the Catch up light not flashing, it is not intended to show Cumulus doing the catchup from the logger, instead it is the folllowing:
The 'Catch up' light will flash while Cumulus is 'catching up' at start up with web updates to Weather Underground etc from data downloaded from the station's logger. It may take some time to complete; if you close Cumulus while the catch up is in progress, any outstanding updates will be lost.
So if have not got Cumulus set to catch up on uploads to Weather Undeground etc you won't see the catch up light flash.
