Open as a text file [[month.ini]] in the folder whose name is bearing the timestamp after your final rollover, the final lowest and highest for each observation in the month will be listed. In a similar manner if you miss the last day of the year, see the final 'this year' figures for last year by opening [[year.ini]] from the appropriate backup. | '''View''', ''Highs and Lows - This month (or This year)'' (or ''thismonth.htm'' or ''thisyear.htm'' web page) only shows the lowest and highest values for the current calendar month (or current year). This answer describes a way to see the same information for the month (or year) that fairly recently ended. It is valid only until build 1088 (from 5 March 2014 build 1089 'Delay writing of end of day backup files until the first log entry is written' means the stored ''month.ini'' relates to the ''initial'' entries for the start of the new month). From version 1.9.3 build 1041, Cumulus creates a daily backup of the log files. | ||
*Look in the ''backup\daily'' subfolder within your Cumulus installation. | |||
*These daily backups will be created if Cumulus was left running during the period of interest, or stopped before that period and since restarted. | |||
*Normally about 10 such back ups are available, each folder has a name based on the timestamp and contains the 6 [[:Category:Log_Files|xxxx.ini files]], the current [[Monthly_log_files|monthly standard data log]]/[[Extra_Sensor_Files|monthly extra data log]], and the most recent update of [[dayfile.txt|daily summary log]]. | |||
Open as a text file [[month.ini]] in the folder whose name is bearing the timestamp after your final rollover, for Cumulus builds 1041 to 1088 the final lowest and highest for each observation in the month will be listed. | |||
In a similar manner if you miss the last day of the year, for Cumulus builds 1041 to 1088 see the final 'this year' figures for last year by opening [[year.ini]] from the appropriate backup. | |||
