When Cumulus 1.x.y is run for the very first time, the ''Station settings'' screen within the '''Configuration''' menu is displayed, so that the basic minimum settings can be entered into a 'Cumulus.ini' that it will then create. Should you accidentally delete Cumulus.ini this would happen again, so it is always best to take a backup of the complete Cumulus directory and sub-directories so nothing is lost in such a situation. | When Cumulus 1.x.y is run for the very first time, the ''Station settings'' screen within the '''Configuration''' menu is displayed, so that the basic minimum settings can be entered into a 'Cumulus.ini' that it will then create.

See [[Setup]] for further advice, noting in particular that some settings (such as units, date/time formats) should stay unchanged. | For Cumulus MX, again when it is run for first time, unless it has been given a Cumulus.ini file created for Cumulus 1, you will need to set some settings. However, Cumulus MX does save a back up automatically at the end of each day. | ||
See [[Setup]] for further advice, noting in particular that some settings (such as units, date/time formats) should stay unchanged, because if you do change those you will need to edit all the other files that Cumulus creates to reflect those changes. | |||
