The cumulus.ini [[:Category:Configuration Files| configuration file]] is a text file containing initialization parameters used by the Cumulus application, and is read only when Cumulus starts up. |
|||
'''Apparent temperature''' is the general term for the perceived outdoor temperature, caused by the combined effects of air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed. |
|||
It is located in the directory in which you installed Cumulus and is updated whenever you change any configuration parameters from the application configuration pages. Cumulus also re-writes the file when it shuts down, so if you want to edit the file yourself, make sure Cumulus is stopped. Note that some configuration settings can only be applied by editing this file; they do not appear anywhere in the configuration screens. Cumulus does not write these values back out to the file, so they do not appear with default values - in other words, you need to ''add'' them if you want to set them. Note also that if your system is configured to use a comma for a decimal separator, then you should use a comma in any decimal values that you set in this file. |

Specifically, in Cumulus, a formula from the BOM is used: [http://www.bom.gov.au/info/thermal_stress/#atapproximation] |

|UseZeroBearing=0 |
|||
|Set this in the Station Configuration Screen Settings block. |
|||
*0 = Disabled, Cumulus displays the current bearing read from the station (i.e. the last direction the wind was blowing from before it became calm). Note that the average wind bearing will always display zero bearing if there has been no wind for the last 10 minutes, as the average bearing takes wind speed into account. |

|||
|Cloud base measurement unit |
|||
*0 = meters |
|||
*1 = feet (default) |
|||
|- |
|||
|EWTempdiff=x.y |
|||
|Enter this line in the [Station] section of the Cumulus.ini to filter erroneous temperature readings from your sensor. Replace x.y with the maximum difference in degrees C you are prepared to accept between successive data readings |
|||
|- |
|||
|WMR928TempChannel=N |
|||
|To use an 'extra' channel as your main temperature sensor, set N to the required channel |
|||
|- |
|||
|RTdisconnectcount=60 |
|||
|Option periodically disconnect the realtime FTP connection, the theory being that it will not get stuck if the servier dies, and wil keep trying to reconnect. |
|||
Enter this line in the [Station] section of the Cumulus.ini |
|||
The '60' is an example; it represents the number of realtime ftp uploads between disconnections - so 60 would give an hour if 1 minute realtime interval selected. |
|||
|- |
|||
|EWpressureoffset=x.y |
|||
|Got a pressure problem? This can occur on startup when the pressure 'offset' that Cumulus reads is garbage, so Cumulus just uses zero (so effectively you end up with your absolute pressure being recorded instead of relative pressure). There's a work around for this by telling Cumulus what offset to use, rather than reading it from the station. You specify it in cumulus.ini by adding a line to the [Station] section: where x.y is the difference between your station (absolute) and sea-level (relative) pressures, in mb/hPA. |
|||
|- |
|||
|UseWindChillCutOff=1 |
|||
|Calculate [[Wind chill]] only if temperature less than 10°C rule. |
|||
*0 = Disabled (default) |
|||
*1 = Enabled, this line needs to be added in the [Station] section of the Cumulus.ini |
|||
Note that you need to set Cumulus to calculate the wind chill (if your station is a type that supplies one itself) for this setting to have any effect. |
|||
|- |
|||
|Logging=1 |
|||
|Add to cumulus.ini [Station] section to have Cumulus start with [[debug]] logging on |
|||
|- |
|||
|VP2SleepInterval=x |
|||
|where x is sleepinterval in milliseconds |
|||
This is the period which Cumulus waits between reads of the data from Davis stations. The default is 500 ms; if you suspect that data is being missed, you could try reducing this figure. For VirtualVP users, tests revealed that VP2SleepInterval = 1100 seems to work the best. It updates every two seconds with few exceptions. |
|||
|- |
|||
|WS2300Sync=1 |
|||
|This makes Cumulus check the time that the station is going to communicate with the sensors, and synchronises all of its reads to be 2.5 seconds after that. Experiments have shown that this does not help the bad data situation. |
|||
|- |
|||
|VPClosedownTime=x |
|||
|where x is the number of seconds after the start of the re-connect attempts that you want the program to close itself. |
|||
|- |
|||
|APRSHumidityCutoff=1 |
|||
|Add to [Station] section For Scientific technical It doesn't report humidity to [[APRS]] when the temperature is below -10°C |
|||
|- |
|||
|EWduplicatecheck=0 |
|||
|Add this line to cumulus.ini [Station] section if application gets stuck in the download stage. |
|||
|- |
|||
|LCMaxWind=X |
|||
|To use the cumulus.ini setting for the La Crosse max wind speed add to the [station] section, where X is the maximum (uncalibrated) wind speed in m/s that you want to allow. (V1.8.8 Build 874 on) |
|||
|- |
|||
|AvgSpeedMinutes=N |
|||
|where N is the number of minutes over which Cumulus calculates its average speed, if you have Cumulus set to do this. Default = 10. |
|||
|- |
|||
|AvgBearingMinutes=N |
|||
|where N is the number of minutes over which Cumulus calculates its average bearing. Default = 10. |

Revision as of 08:37, 25 April 2011
The cumulus.ini configuration file is a text file containing initialization parameters used by the Cumulus application, and is read only when Cumulus starts up. It is located in the directory in which you installed Cumulus and is updated whenever you change any configuration parameters from the application configuration pages. Cumulus also re-writes the file when it shuts down, so if you want to edit the file yourself, make sure Cumulus is stopped. Note that some configuration settings can only be applied by editing this file; they do not appear anywhere in the configuration screens. Cumulus does not write these values back out to the file, so they do not appear with default values - in other words, you need to add them if you want to set them. Note also that if your system is configured to use a comma for a decimal separator, then you should use a comma in any decimal values that you set in this file.
| INI Line Entry | Function |
|---|---|
| [Station] | Section name - the following parameters relate to the station configuration. |
| Type=-1 | Station Type as set by the checked radio box in the Station Configuration Screen, Station Type block
|

|
| ConfirmClose=0 | Confirm you wish to close Cumulus application after telling it to close
|
| CloseOnSuspend=1 | If this is selected, Cumulus will close if you suspend/standby/hibernate your computer. You should not select 'Confirm shutdown' if you use this option.
|
| RestartIfUnplugged=0 | Cumulus will restart if it detects that a Fine Offset station is unplugged.
|
| SyncDavisClock=0 | When set, at start-up, Cumulus will set the Davis VP/VP2 clock to the same time as the PC
|
| DataLogInterval=2 | Data log interval as selected in the Station Configuration Screen Data log interval block
|
| WindUnit=0 | Wind measurement unit Cumulus records in as selected in the Station Configuration Units block
|
| PressureUnit=0 | Pressure measurement unit Cumulus records in as selected in the Station Configuration Units block
|
| RainUnit=0 | Rain measurement unit Cumulus records in as selected in the Station Configuration Units block
|
| TempUnit=0 | Temperature measurement unit Cumulus records in as selected in the Station Configuration Units block
|
| LocName= | Location Name as entered on in the Station Configuration Screen |
| LocDesc= | Location Description as entered in the Station Configuration Screen |
| StartDate=13/08/2009 | The date at which your records commenced. By default this will set to the date of initial installation of the application. |
| WindComp=1 | Original way of doing wind speed calibration, so it's basically the same as the wind multiplier. Deprecated, use the calibration settings instead. |
| LastLoggerDownload=13/08/2008 12:48:52 | The date/time of the last down load from your weather station (note: no longer used) |
| YTDrain=0 | Year to date correction if starting part way through year as entered in the Station Configuration Screen. Default is 0. |
| YTDrainyear=0 | The year for which the YTDrain is to be applied. Default is 0 |
| EWInterval=0 | Easyweather interval in minutes as entered in the Station Configuration Screen Settings block. |
| EWFile= | Easyweather.dat file path/name as entered in the Station Configuration Screen Settings block. |
| UseDataLogger=1 | If selected, at start-up, Cumulus will download data from the stations data logger (if it has one) to catch up from the point where Cumulus was last shut down.
|
| UseCumulusForecast=0 | From the Station Configuration Screen Forecast block, if selected Cumulus will generate a simple weather forecast, if your station does not supply one, or as an alternative to the one supplied by your station. See the Forecast webtag for more information.
|
| UseCumulusPresstrendstr=0 | Set in the Station Configuration Screen Settings block. If selected Cumulus will generate the name for the current pressure trend, e.g. "Falling", "Rising quickly" etc, instead of the one supplied by your station. The names used are those in the UK Shipping Forecast. Note that some stations do not supply this anyway, so setting this has no effect (Cumulus always generates the names for those stations).
|
| FCpressinMB=1 | Forecast pressure unit as selected in Station Configuration Forecast block
|
| FClowpress=950 | Low Pressure extreme limit as entered in the Station Configuration Forecast block. Default is 950mb |
| FChighpress=1050 | High Pressure extreme limit as entered in the Station Configuration Forecast block. Default is 1050mb |
| ForceVPBarUpdate=0 | Set this in the Station Configuration Screen Settings block. Select to force the Vantage Pro (and Pro2) barometer to update once a minute instead of the default 15 minutes. Note that you may not need this, more recent stations already update every minute
|
| UseZeroBearing=0 | Set this in the Station Configuration Screen Settings block.
|
| VP2ConnectionType=0 | Weather station connection type as selected in the Station Configuration Screen VP type block
|
| VP2TCPPort=22222 | Comunications port used if VP type has TCP/IP selected. Default is 2222 |
| VP2IPAddr=0.0.0.0 | Weather station IP address if VP type has TCP/IP selected. Default is 0.0.0.0 |
| WarnMultiple=0 | Multiple Instances of Cumulus running on PC
|
| CloudBaseInFeet=1 | Cloud base measurement unit
|
| EWTempdiff=x.y | Enter this line in the [Station] section of the Cumulus.ini to filter erroneous temperature readings from your sensor. Replace x.y with the maximum difference in degrees C you are prepared to accept between successive data readings |
| WMR928TempChannel=N | To use an 'extra' channel as your main temperature sensor, set N to the required channel |
| RTdisconnectcount=60 | Option periodically disconnect the realtime FTP connection, the theory being that it will not get stuck if the servier dies, and wil keep trying to reconnect.
Enter this line in the [Station] section of the Cumulus.ini The '60' is an example; it represents the number of realtime ftp uploads between disconnections - so 60 would give an hour if 1 minute realtime interval selected. |
| EWpressureoffset=x.y | Got a pressure problem? This can occur on startup when the pressure 'offset' that Cumulus reads is garbage, so Cumulus just uses zero (so effectively you end up with your absolute pressure being recorded instead of relative pressure). There's a work around for this by telling Cumulus what offset to use, rather than reading it from the station. You specify it in cumulus.ini by adding a line to the [Station] section: where x.y is the difference between your station (absolute) and sea-level (relative) pressures, in mb/hPA. |
| UseWindChillCutOff=1 | Calculate Wind chill only if temperature less than 10°C rule.
Note that you need to set Cumulus to calculate the wind chill (if your station is a type that supplies one itself) for this setting to have any effect. |
| Logging=1 | Add to cumulus.ini [Station] section to have Cumulus start with debug logging on |
| VP2SleepInterval=x | where x is sleepinterval in milliseconds
This is the period which Cumulus waits between reads of the data from Davis stations. The default is 500 ms; if you suspect that data is being missed, you could try reducing this figure. For VirtualVP users, tests revealed that VP2SleepInterval = 1100 seems to work the best. It updates every two seconds with few exceptions. |
| WS2300Sync=1 | This makes Cumulus check the time that the station is going to communicate with the sensors, and synchronises all of its reads to be 2.5 seconds after that. Experiments have shown that this does not help the bad data situation. |
| VPClosedownTime=x | where x is the number of seconds after the start of the re-connect attempts that you want the program to close itself. |
| APRSHumidityCutoff=1 | Add to [Station] section For Scientific technical It doesn't report humidity to APRS when the temperature is below -10°C |
| EWduplicatecheck=0 | Add this line to cumulus.ini [Station] section if application gets stuck in the download stage. |
| LCMaxWind=X | To use the cumulus.ini setting for the La Crosse max wind speed add to the [station] section, where X is the maximum (uncalibrated) wind speed in m/s that you want to allow. (V1.8.8 Build 874 on) |
| AvgSpeedMinutes=N | where N is the number of minutes over which Cumulus calculates its average speed, if you have Cumulus set to do this. Default = 10. |
| AvgBearingMinutes=N | where N is the number of minutes over which Cumulus calculates its average bearing. Default = 10. |

| [Offsets] | Section Name - the following parameters are the correction factors for your specific sensors |
| PressOffset=0 | Value by which Measured Pressure to be corrected (Add/Subtract) |
| TempOffset=0 | Value by which Measured Outdoor Temperature to be corrected (Add/Subtract) |
| HumOffset=0 | Value by which Measured Humidity to be corrected (Add/Subtract) |
| WindDirOffset=0 | Value by which Measured Wind Direction to be corrected (Add/Subtract) |
| InTempOffset=0 | Value by which Measured Indoor Temperature to be corrected (Add/Subtract) |
| WindSpeedMult=1 | Multiplier by which measured Average Wind Speed to be corrected. Officially wind speed is measured with sensors at 10m above ground level. If your sensor is not at 10m AGL then a correction multiplier should be applied using the following formula V10/Vh = 1/(0.233 + 0.656*log10(h+4.75)) where "h" is your sensor height in meters.
e.g. if your anemometer is 5m off the ground, V10/Vh comes out at 1.134 |
| WindGustMult=1 | Multiplier by which measured Wind Gust Speed to be corrected. |
| TempMult=1 | Multiplier by which measured Temperature to be corrected. |
| HumMult=1 | Multiplier by which measured Humidity to be corrected. |
| RainMult=1 | Multiplier by which measured Rainfall to be corrected. |
| [xAP] | Section Name - the following parameters are used if you have enabled xAP in the Station Configuration xAP Settings block |
| Enabled=0 | When set, Cumulus will periodically send out xAP weather reports. See http://www.xapautomation.org/ for more details
|
| UID=4375 | Sets the UID for xAP messages. You should only need to change this if you have more than one instance of Cumulus running on a network. |
| Port=3639 | IP port your computer uses to send data to xAP |
