|EWpressureoffset=x.y
|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:

|Logging=1
|Add to cumulus.ini [Station] section to have Cumulus start with debug logging on
|-
|VP2SleepInterval=x
|where x is sleepinterval in milliseconds
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.
