Davis station loggers record a single spot wind speed, so if you restart Cumulus and the software attempts to catch up from the station logger there may be only one or two values to include in the Cumulus average (over 10, or as configured) minutes calculation.
Davis VP2 station loggers record a single spot wind speed, so if you restart Cumulus and the software attempts to catch up from the station logger there may be only one or two values to include in the Cumulus average (over 10, or as configured) minutes calculation.
Note that if you sample these readings at shorter (real time) intervals it is possible for Cumulus 'Latest' to be lower than Cumulus 'Average' because approximately half of the 3-second wind speeds will be higher and half of them lower than the 10-minute average.

== How do I enable debug logging in CumulusMX? ==
There are a number of ways of enabling logging
*From b3068 CumulusMX can be started with the -debug parameter to switch on debug and data logging from start-up. This is often the best option.
*Whilst MX is running the logging can be switched off/on via the administrator interface - Settings|Station settings|Options ''Debug logging'' & ''Data logging''
*With MX stopped, edit Cumulus.ini. In the [Station] section set (or add if missing) the two entries...
<pre>Logging=1
DataLogging=1</pre>
