==Transferring data from EasyWeather to Cumulus==
If you need to import EasyWeather data from a period before you started using Cumulus, then close Cumulus and run EasyWeather, in that use the ''History'' option on the '''Record''' menu.
*Select 'user defined' in '''Search Conditions''' box.  Select a ''start time'' before you got your weather station, leave ''end time'' at default of today. 
*Click '''Export''' button, tick ''Header'', choose as ''Separator:'' the symbol that is used to separate fields in your [[Monthly log files]].
*Click '''Export''' button below the separator, complete the 'Save as ...' for a ''text'' file, and wait a couple of minutes (depending on size of file).
*Open resulting file in a text editor and see hints in [[Monthly log files]] on how to convert between formats.
