Average Temperature Incorrect After Cumulus MX Lock Up

Average Temperature Incorrect After Cumulus MX Lock Up

Post by Grimers »

Hello!

For some reason, on the 26th Cumulus MX decided to lock up, throw a wobbly, display a huge rainfall spike and now after having to restore a backup from that date, the average temperature is wrong for that day. Any ideas as to what could be causing this?

Have attached some files that will hopefully help.

Thanks!

Looks like file corruption on your computer. The today.ini file was apparently corrupted, and also your April log file.

You have your logger set to a 1 minute interval, so it holds about 42 hours of data, but you tried to go back about 50 hours, so your data for the 26th is incomplete and hence any daily totals and averages are incorrect.

Certainly nothing to do with the PC, seems like a Cumulus lock up. So, I presume everything is ok as it is now? Can't remedy this issue? I thought Cumulus MX would calculate the average with the data provided. It seems very low.

It doesn't have all of the data, as I explained, because you tried to go back further than the data available in your logger. But you're apparently the expert so I'm done here, goodbye :roll:

I know that, Steve! I was specifically asking about why the average temperature is wrong. :)
