Cumulus Support

I'm still experimenting, apologies for the constant questions.

I've installed Cumulus Realtime at http://www.wetherbyweather.org.uk/CumulusRealtime.html . It eventually shows the information, but it takes an age "Loading data" compared to the one at sandaysoft.

Does Cumulus Realtime wait until the next update of realtime.txt before first showing data? Or is my host (Penguin UK) being slow? Is there anything I can do about it?

Thank you!

It's not the update of the realtime.txt file that it's waiting for, it just doesn't read the file at all until the first update interval (as configured in the XML file) has expired; it was just easier to write it that way and I never got around to improving it. The only thing you could do would be to lower the update interval in the xml config file.

Thanks Steve. Understood.
