|This parameter (attribute=value) is added directly to the file, it does not appear on a configuration screen. If the parameter is not included in the file or the parameter is 'SpecialLog=0', the [[Speciallog.txt|special log file]] is not updated. {{Version badge 1}}If you do include this parameter then the inside and outside temperature, humidity and dew point are logged at the same interval as values are logged to [[Monthly log files|Standard log files]]. Not implemented in MX. | |||

|This parameter (attribute=value) is added directly to the file, it does not appear on a configuration screen. This line can be added in the [Station] section of the Cumulus.ini, with this parameter N is the number of minutes over which Cumulus calculates (by treating the wind as a vector and taking into account the speed as well as direction) its average bearing. Without it, the default sampling time = 10 minutes. Note the max number of wind samples stored by Cumulus is 720, so the maximum effective value for N for Fine Offset stations that are read every 10 seconds is 120 (2 hours) while for Davis stations that are sampled every 2 to 3 seconds the maximum effective value is only about 30 (minutes). | |This parameter (attribute=value) is added directly to the file, it does not appear on a configuration screen.

|This parameter (attribute=value) is added directly to the file, it does not appear on a configuration screen. The temperature threshold is specified in the units that you use in Cumulus (see [[Heat/cold_degree_days_and_Chill_hours]]). The default is exactly 45 degrees Fahrenheit (or exactly 7 degrees Celsius depending on which units you use) if the parameter has not been included. | |This parameter (attribute=value) is added directly to the file, it does not appear on a configuration screen.
