For Oregon Scientific WMR-928 weather stations, the ''WMR928 extra channel captions'' frame on the '''Display Settings''' screen within the ''Configuration'' menu allows you to change the captions displayed with values for 3 extra channels (see [[ | For Oregon Scientific WMR-928 weather stations, the ''WMR928 extra channel captions'' frame on the '''Display Settings''' screen within the ''Configuration'' menu allows you to change the captions displayed with values for 3 extra channels (see [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_Display]]). | ||
For WMR-928 stations (and other stations using the same protocol, e.g. WMR-968) to use an 'extra' channel as your main temperature sensor, set N to the required channel by adding an extra line ''WMR928TempChannel=N'' parameter to the [[Cumulus.ini#Other_weather_station.2Finstrument_specific:|Station section of cumulus.ini]]. | |||

If ''Extra Sensors'' is set in the settings frame on the '''Station settings''' screen off the configuration menu, files are automatically created with names in the form <tt>ExtraLogyyyymm.txt</tt>. For example, a file for December 2003 is called ''ExtraLog200312.txt''. | If ''Extra Sensors'' is set in the settings frame on the '''Station settings''' screen off the configuration menu, files are automatically created with names in the form <tt>ExtraLogyyyymm.txt</tt>.
