Hello,
I just bought a Ambient 2080 weather station and have used Cumulus to upload data to the web. Since my plan is to the the base station to monitor indoor temp and humidity (I live in Florida for the winter but spend some time in New England in the summer) and post these to the web also.

My desire would be to have Cumulus do the following:
1. Record the max and min Inside temp and Humidity and report these on the daily, monthly, annual and records web pages.
2. Auto trigger an email to me should the humidity (inside) go above a programmed number (eg 60% humidity, or say 85 degrees). This is because as long as the humidity stays below about 65%, there is no risk of mold or mildew.
3. I want to change the period to plot (on trends) to say 7 or 14 days, with the timeline show as days (or date) not hours as they most do now. Could I change it somehow?

I must say that I really do think that Cumulus is a fantastic product.

Tony

I've tended to concentrate on external data as being more important to reporting the weather; I may get around to doing more with internal data (and I think there is an enhancement request for this already) but I have a very long list of requested enhancements to get through.

Email notification is another already-requested enhancement, and I probably will get around to that before too long.

You can change the period, but the graphs weren't really designed for that kind of length and the labels on the axes (which are drawn automatically) probably won't cope, and there's not really anything I can do about that. Longer term graphs are something I could possibly look at in the future.
