Each setting has a hint beside it (with a small 'i' for information before each hint). If you have used [[Cumulus_Screenshots#Station|Cumulus 1]], the layout and section headings will be familiar. No settings takes effect until '''Save''' button pressed. | Each setting has a hint beside it (with a small 'i' for information before each hint).

Like all the settings pages, there are headings with settings below them that are collapsed so click headings to see the items under them. | Like all the settings pages, there are headings with settings below them that are collapsed so click headings to see the items under them. | ||
Please note that '''release 3.10.1''' totally changed the station settings page (and others) compared to earlier MX releases. This Wiki page was originally written for release versions up to 3.6.0, and so the sub-sections covering earlier releases are better laid out than the sub-section covering release 3.10.1 onwards. | |||
Please note that, in the '''Options''' section, there are two settings that take effect immediately '''Save''' is pressed, but are not written to '''Cumulus.ini''' when MX is closed, so will be reset when MX is restarted; these two exceptions are to use '''Debugging logging''' and to use '''Data Logging'''. The first adds extra output to the log file created in "CumulusMX/MXDiags" folder reporting in detail each output task MX does. The second adds extra output to the log file created in "CumulusMX/MXDiags" folder reporting in detail each input received from the weather station. | Please note that, in the '''Options''' section, there are two settings that take effect immediately '''Save''' is pressed, but are not written to '''Cumulus.ini''' when MX is closed, so will be reset when MX is restarted; these two exceptions are to use '''Debugging logging''' and to use '''Data Logging'''.
