Outdoor readings not showing

[ccinfl]

Hi all,
I've been using Cumulus for several years but am brand new to the forum. (Although I read it a lot)
My WMR298 is receiving all readings from the wireless sensors, but only the indoor, rain, and wind readings show on the 1.9.3 Cumulus display pgm.
This began when I updated to 1.9.3 . I reset the station, removed 1.9.3 and reinstalled 1.9.2 with no change. The outdoor sensor is on channel 1, and it will show up
as an extra sensor, but not on the main (outdoor) display. The forecast doesn't change from "Exceptional weather,Stormy, much precipitation" either.
Station is connected to Com 1, Cumulus running on a Win 7 dedicated system, not used for normal daily use. (Have another 'puter for that).
Any ideas to correct this?

If your other sensor is on channel 1 and is showing up as an extra sensor, then it sounds like you haven't set WMR928TempChannel=1 in the [Station] section of Cumulus.ini, to make it the main sensor. If you installed 1.9.3 to the same place as your previous installation, it would normally keep the setting (the cumulus.ini file is untouched by the installer).

Thanks Steve,
Your reply reminded me of how dumb I really am. I had deleted the old ver, so when I installed the new, the WMR928TempChannel=1
line was not in the .ini file. Duh.... Now fixed, and working. Thanks.
Still having issues with the forecast thingy. Did change the 'pressure extremes' from in to db, did not change the numerical's though.
No change in the display. Going to change it back to in to match the station.
Also, even though connected direct to the internet through a router, I will lose the data transmission (to WU and PWS) at least once a month.
Usually within 30 min after resetting the router, station, and pgm I'll see the data on WU again. It's strange, 'cause it may go months before dropping out.
Your dedication to the program is really appreciated and prompts another 'donation' to the cause.

The important thing to note about the pressure extremes for the forecast is that the figures you supply there must match the units you supply there. They don't need to match the units you use for pressure elsewhere in Cumulus.

Well, with enough playing, one can fix most anything. lol
Currently....
Forecast is reading from the pgm file. (Changed Pressure Extremes to 26.00 and 31.00 'in'. Also 'in' in Station. Set Forecast to change hourly. )
Replaced batteries in Indoor sensor, reset, set to F and inHg.
Outdoor readings from wireless sensor (on Ch 1) show up on Cumulus display. (Added WMR928TempChannel=1 to .ini file)
Restarted Cumulus pgm.
Data is now being sent to WU (KFLKEYST2 - North Keystone) and 'Weather for You', but have to add PWS again to 'Internet' settings.
Thought I'd post all this to help others having similar problems.
Thanks for your help, Steve.
