Good evening, I would like to know how to set the rising and setting of the sun.
Cumulus tells me the Moonrise is at 00:11 and the 9:59 start. and where I live (Argentina) is not.
how to configure that?

In the Cumulus
Configuration
Station
screen there is a panel in the middle of the screen for Location.
Ensure you have the correct Latitude and Longitude - pay careful attention to the fact that the setting is in deg/min/secs (not decimal degrees), and to the North/South (N or S) and East/West (E or W of Greenwich) settings.
With these correct, your sun and moon data should be correct.
Also ensure your PC and Station clocks are set correctly and are in sync.

Re: Sunrise and sunset?
thanks for the reply, the issue is that the coordinates that google maps gives me are negative and I can not put signs in cumulus (in the field that get the coordinates)BCJKiwi wrote:In the Cumulus

EDIT!! I've solved had to indicate the longitude and latitude, with the letters s and w.
thank you very much

Re: Sunrise and sunset?
Yes these 'conventions' are an issue.
Some use d/m/sec others decimal degrees.
Some use + and - while others use ns / ew. Also there are some who for reasons unknown (to me) decide to reverse + and - from everyone else.
Happy to be of assistance.
