Changing Graph Wind Speeds?

Hi Steve,

At the moment, the wind speed graph plots the average wind speed and the gust. Is it possible, to change the wind speed graph so that it plots the latest wind speed instead of the average wind speed?

Would I have to change the Cumulus.ini or the Strings.ini file, to achieve what I wanted?

What I want to achieve, has been achieved here: Wind Speed Graph

Thanks,

William

No. Latest + Average, or Gust + Average.

For Davis:
Latest = speed over the last 2.5 seconds
Gust = highest value of Latest in last 10 minutes
Average = average over last 10 minutes of 'latest' value; calculated either by Cumulus or by the station

The graph in the link that you edited into your post while I was replying is Latest+Average.

Well, it looks like I've managed to suss it out! Average Wind Speed is now Latest Wind Speed and Gust Wind Speed is still Gust Wind Speed! :D

That doesn't look like Average Wind Speed, to me? For example, it shows: 16.0 km/h gusts, not 15.4 km/h gusts.
