There are many other brands of station as in last section. Include here any Fine Offset manufactured stations which have solar sensors (rather than just solar charging) and transmit data via USB. | |||
Use this setting ("Fine Offset with Solar Sensors") for these which do report "lux" as well as other weather measurements: | |||

In general, if the station is supplied with 'Easyweather' software, it is likely that the station is made by Fine Offset and will work with Cumulus. | |||

This particular device is just a transmitting relay ( | This particular device is just a transmitting relay (also known as dongle), powered by USB (the USB does not have any data sent over it), containing temperature, pressure and humidity sensors, and able to interrogate a range of external sensors; and output to various external servers/destinations. These devices do not include a screen to show readings, nor do they provide any logger functionality to store readings. They support up to 8 sensors measuring temperature (MX calls these the user temperatures, because they might be soil probes, devices for measuring water or air temperature, MX does not care), plus up to 4 air quality sensors (again MX does not care how they detect the air quality number they report). | ||

Cumulus MX can intercept (via your existing network router) the wifi transmissions from the device and process those. Because there is no logger, MX must be left running all the time to pick up every transmission. All of these MX can log in its extra sensor log file and output web tags so the readings can be incorporated on a web site. | |||
