Re: Is Cumulus for me? Developing driver to support station that outputs JSON observations

Another alternative (better in many ways), is to use the "HTTP Station (Ecowitt)" station, which receives data via a HTTP POST. You can send this as often as you like - so every time the data updates, and it supports all the extra sensors that the EW file does not. The format of the POST m...

Re: Lost icon

In that case use the 32 bit exe.

I'll have a look at why the icon isn't included with 64 bit version. Both versions are built from the same config so it's a bit odd.

Re: Lost icon

Re: Is Cumulus for me? Developing driver to support station that outputs JSON observations

Realtime.txt is an output file. But MX does support a station type of EasyWeather that supports input from a text file in a specific format - it just reads the first line of the file.

Re: Cumulusmx sudden upload problem

If you have any xxxxtmp files on your FTP server, delete them and see if that helps.

Re: CumulusMX v4 updating

I just checked and the Third-Party uploads screen is already configured to prevent a value of zero being entered. Did you edit the Cumulus.ini file yourself?

Re: CumulusMX v4 updating

Thanks, the problem is cause by the Weather Underground upload interval being set to zero minutes If you change the Interval=0 to say Interval=5 in your Cumulus.ini file that should fix it. [Wunderground] ID= Password= Enabled=0 RapidFire=0 Interval=0 I'll prevent this happening in future releases.

Re: USB connection hangs up after about 1 minute

That's some detective work. I do wonder how many of these old Fine Offset stations are still in use? We still get the a few posts about them on the forum.
