{{Version badge 1}}Set the majority of these parameters using Configuration menu and [[Cumulus_Screenshots#Display_and_Colour_screens_as_at_version_1.9.4|either ''Display'' or ''Colours'' screens]] as seen on link and indicated below. The exception is "TwelveHourClock", that parameter is set by clicking on the displayed time.
The only settings used in this section by Cumulus MX are "NumWindRosePoints" and those for extras.
|-
|DisplayCloudBase=0
|{{Version badge 1}}Set in the Display Configuration Screen General block.
*0 = Disabled, (default)
*1 = Enabled, the calculated cloud base is displayed on the main screen. The calculation is a simple one; 1000 feet for every 4.5 degrees Fahrenheit difference between the temperature and the dew point.
|-
|DisplayHumidex=0
|{{Version badge 1}}Set in the Display Configuration Screen General block
*0 = Disabled (default) [[Heat_index]] displayed on main screen. The heat index is calculated only if the actual temperature in the shade (not in direct sunlight) is above 27 °C (80 °F), so normal temperature shown here for cooler temperatures.
*1 = Enabled, calculated [[Humidex]] value to be displayed on the main screen instead of Heat Index. (Note that Cumulus displays degrees C or F for Humidex, whereas strictly speaking it is unitless. This is for the convenience of those who use Fahrenheit but would still prefer to see Humidex displayed, where it might be confusing to show the unconverted value.)
|-
|DisplaySolarData=0
|{{Version badge 1}}Set by ''Display solar/extra data'' item in the Display Configuration Screen ''General'' block.
*0 = Disabled (default)

|-
|WindGaugeAnimationFactor=2
|{{Version badge 1}}Set in the Display Configuration Screen. This sets the speed of the wind gauge animation. Lower values correspond to a faster animation speed.
