Cumulus provides some support for extra sensors that can be connected to Oregon Scientific (e.g. WMR-928) and Davis (e.g.Vantage Pro 2 wireless models can have extra sensors whose readings can be interrogated via the Davis DLL) weather stations. Please note, this is nothing to do with certain [[EasyWeather_Format#Note_on_Models|Fine Offset models]] including solar and UV sensors.

'''NOTE:''' This article may need to be updated by somebody who actually has and uses such instruments. From what I have seen in the support forum, the OS weather stations can support up to 10 temperature and humidity measurements, so that has determined the Cumulus provision. The Davis DLL may be able to cope with up to 8 such sensors, so it will never update all the fields available in Cumulus.
'''NOTE:''' This article may need to be updated by somebody who actually has and uses such instruments. It appears from the support forum:
*the OS weather stations can support up to 10 temperature, dewpoint, and humidity measurements, so that has determined the Cumulus provision  
*the Davis DLL may be able to cope with up to 8 temperature/humidity/dewpoint sensors plus a small number of soil temperature, soil moisture, leaf temperature, and leaf wetness sensors.
