→How does Cumulus deal with extra sensors?
| Line 315: | Line 315: | ||
Cumulus 1 has the ability to input, log, and display Current Values/Outputs from the [[Rain_measurement#Optical_Rain_Gauges|Hydreon Optical Rain Sensor - Model RG-11]] and from either Oregon Scientific or Davis [[Extra_Sensor_Files|extra sensors]]. Only today's and yesterday's total rainfall from a Hydreon sensor are available in [[today.ini]] and [[yesterday.ini]] respectively. | Cumulus 1 has the ability to input, log, and display Current Values/Outputs from the [[Rain_measurement#Optical_Rain_Gauges|Hydreon Optical Rain Sensor - Model RG-11]] and from either Oregon Scientific or Davis [[Extra_Sensor_Files|extra sensors]].

For some Oregon Scientific models, the temperature from an extra sensor can replace the temperature from the main sensor for processing by Cumulus 1, but all extra sensor values are stored in a series of [[Extra_Sensor_Files| monthly log]] files. | For some Oregon Scientific models, the temperature from an extra sensor can replace the temperature from the main sensor for processing by Cumulus 1, but all extra sensor values are stored in a series of [[Extra_Sensor_Files| monthly log]] files for extra sensors. | ||
No other processing is performed for Davis extra sensors, but past values are retained in a series of [[Extra_Sensor_Files| monthly log]] files. The file [[strings.ini]] is used to customise the description associated with extra sensors. | No other processing is performed for Davis extra sensors, but past values are retained in a series of [[Extra_Sensor_Files|extra sensor monthly log]] files.
