Revision as of 18:37, 23 August 2009 by Daj (talk | contribs) (Adjusted the way the sample file is displayed)

Files are automatically created with names in the form <Month><Year>log.txt (for example, the file for August 2009 is called Aug09log.txt); an entry is made to the current month's file every ten minutes, recording the current sensor values. The file is in comma-separated format with one line per entry


Format of the file

  • Date in the form dd/mm/yy
  • Current time
  • Current temperature
  • Current humidity
  • Current dewpoint
  • Current wind speed
  • Current wind gust
  • Current wind bearing
  • Current rainfall rate
  • Total rainfall today so far
  • Current sea level pressure


Times in these files are in the form hh:mm using the 24 hour clock and local time (system time).
