Re: Ecowitt HP2551 missing data

I have now and this time there's a message in the outbox. Not sure what happened first time.
Freddie, this was my first attempt.

Re: Ecowitt HP2551 missing data

Thanks Freddie - but there's nothing in the outbox either.

Re: Ecowitt HP2551 missing data

Hi Mark, I sent a DM but there's nothing in the sent box, so has it arrived?

Re: Ecowitt HP2551 missing data

Well I wondered if it was because of my PC being BST and the console being UTC. But there's no data missing on Ecowitt either between 05:40 and 06:00 or 06:40 and 07:00. The PC was off between 0640 and 0700 BST.The MAC address on the Ecowitt.net and the one on CMX are the same, so I assume that's co...

Ecowitt HP2551 missing data

My setup is on a PC that I normally keep running. However, when I go on holiday later this month I don't want to leave it running, so I was very happy when Mark fixed CMX to catch up after a stoppage. I tried doing this this morning by switching off for 50 minutes or so. When I restarted the data wa...

Re: New Firmware HP2551 and like stations

Perhaps I've been eaten by the wolf - that link times out for me. I went onto ecowitt.com and eventually found the firmware for my console - HP2551AE - but the last version was Firmware Update - V1.7.4 07/02/2021, which I think I've already installed (not long after I got the kit in December). It re...

Re: New Firmware HP2551 and like stations

At the risk of sounding thick, where do you download this firmware from? The only link I could find (https://help.ambientweather.net/help/am ... ad-center/) times out in both Firefox, Edge and Chrome.

Re: dayfile not being updated

Thanks Hans. I've done just that, well with what I deem the important stuff. All those funny temps weren't done. I suspect that the sunshine hours aren't right either. But it hasn't fallen in a heap though! Thanks Mark, my PC is connected via a powerline and that has occasional short outages - just ...

Re: dayfile not being updated

I've now run createmissing.exe and it fixed dayfile.txt but today.ini is still wrong as it has yesterday's max. Is it just a case of stopping CMX, editing the file, then restarting?

dayfile not being updated

I was looking at the dashboard and saw my max was 18.6°C at 1515. On further investigation, I saw that dayfile hadn't been updated last night and today.ini hasn't been updating correctly as it has values for yesterday. I'm not entirely sure what happened and I'm not sure how to fix this. Any help pl...

Re: Change to daylight saving hours

It's OK. As the OP I understood what you were saying. I just wish there was a list of recommended Raspberry Pi kits which could be put together with a Noddy guide. And where I could get them!

Re: Change to daylight saving hours

I looked at getting a Raspberry Pi when I first used Cumulus MX - completely out of my comfort zone as I just wasn't sure which bits and pieces I needed to buy. Just had another look, but there are none to be had, all sold out. I would find it easier to build my own PC as I'm far more familiar with ...

Re: Cumulus time zones

This is not directly answering other posts in this thread, but it still might be of interest now not many people remember details of how Cumulus worked before MX. As Mark has explained, MX uses ISO 8601 format timestamps which are always host computer clock time. Steve Loft originally created Cumul...
