|Selected on same screen as other parameters. Simple tick or not:
*0 = Disabled, Cumulus will display the dew point value supplied by the station.
* Tick (value shown as 1 in Cumulus.ini) then Cumulus will calculate wind chill from temperature and wind speed
*1 =  Enabled, Cumulus will calculate the dew point instead. This avoids the restriction in the Oregon Scientific stations where the dew point can never be below freezing point.
** Note that there is a maximum temperature, and minimum wind speed, for Cumulus to make the calculation, see [[Wind_chill]] page
* Don't tick (value shown as 0 in Cumulus.ini) action depends on '''Calibration settings'''
** If Cumulus has non-default multiplier and/or offset settings for temperature or wind speed, Cumulus will calculate wind chill. This avoids the restriction in the Oregon Scientific stations where the dew point can never be below freezing point.
** If station provides wind chill, then that will be used provided no multiplier/offsets have been specified for temperature or wind speed

* Tick (value shown as 1 in Cumulus.ini) then Cumulus will calculate wind chill from temperature and wind speed
*1 = Enabled, Cumulus will calculate the wind chill instead of using the value supplied by the station. You should set this if you have specified any calibration values for wind and/or temperature, so that Cumulus can also apply those adjustments to the wind chill.

Note that some stations (Fine Offset, for example), do not make a wind chill value available to Cumulus. For these, Cumulus always calculates it.
