I have just bought the WMR88 and it runs fine with Cumulus v1.9.2 Feb 10 2012 release. I now want to add an extra Temp/Humidity sensor (THGR810) to monitor and record the conditions in my greenhouse.

I have told Cumulus Configuration that the station is a WMR100 (as suggested elsewhere) and can't see where the extra sensor might appear on the display.

Would it be necessary to tell Cumulus Configuration that the station is a WMR928 for the extra sensors to appear on the display and to have them recorded, if so would that have any adverse effects?

Appreciate any clues before I shell out the £30 on an extra sensor.

Tick 'display extra/solar data' in the display settings. The help for that setting is out of date, it also applies to WMR88/100/200 stations.

Note that currently Cumulus only displays extra sensor data, it doesn't log it.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the prompt reply, I'll get onto Amazon and have a go at using channel 1 for the greenhouse while I'm getting a feel for the "climate" in there.

Thanks for a very useful programme,

Andy
