| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_Theme_Selector.png|thumb]] || style="vertical-align:top;"| The included theme selector page. You can select a theme<br/>(lots included) and set it active for the current session or make it permanent.<br/>You can also reset to the original theme. At the<br/>bottom of the page are the email settings for sending emails.
| |
| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_Weather_Records.png|thumb]] || style="vertical-align:top;"|<strong>Weather view pages</strong><br/><br/>The 'view records' page. Note that you can select the same sub-sets as<br/>in the normal interface. The only difference is the selectors are actually buttons, not lists.
| |
| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_NOAA_Month_Reports.png|thumb]] ||style="vertical-align:top;"| There are some small changes to the way that this page works.<br/>The date selector now automatically closes when you select a date and the report is loaded.
| |
| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_Extra_Sensors.png|thumb]] ||style="vertical-align:top;"| If you have extra sensors on your weather station this is where the readings will<br/>be displayed. It uses an HTML table as in the normal interface but these have all been made<br/>responsive.
| |
| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_Compare_Charts.png|thumb]] ||style="vertical-align:top;"|The new 'choose your own date' charts are included.<br/>The only difference is that ALL charts can now be zoomed to show more detail.<br/>On a tablet this is done with two fingers, but with the mouse just press and drag.
| |
| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_Dashboard.png|thumb]] || style="vertical-align:top;"|This is the alternative dashboard. I have made some<br/>changes to this page as I always like to see any<br/>alarms that have been set as soon as the page<br/>loads.<br/><br/>This page is also on my main list for future development.<br/>I want to include LEDs for Records Set and probably add<br/>extra Almanac data but as a popup so that it<br/>doesn't interfere with the main page data.
| |
| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_Data_Log_Editor.png|thumb]] || style="vertical-align:top;"|The first screenshots of the 'Edit/Configure' pages.<br/>All 'Edit' pages with a date selector modified have had it modified.<br/>The date selector will now disappear as soon as you select a date<br/> and the data loaded. The page also automatically loads the<br/>first set of data on load so you don't need<br/>to click any buttons to start.
| |
| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_Dayfile_Viewer-Editor.png|thumb]] || style="vertical-align:top;"|The Day File Viewer/Editor has been forced to fit within the page layout.<br/>However, it still scrolls sideways so that you can<br/>view all the data.<br/><br/>You can still edit it as this is still done within a popup window.
| |
| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_Diary_Editor.png|thumb]] || style="vertical-align:top;"|This page has been restructured to improve its design.<br/><br/>The calendar has also been themed so that when you choose a new<br/>theme, the calendar colours change as well.<br/><br/>Future versions of this page may be combined with the<br/>Current Conditions editor.
| |
| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_Extra_Sensor_Settings.png|thumb]] || style="vertical-align:top;"|This is an example of the Extra Sensor Settings page.<br/><br/>Many of the 'Settings' pages use the 'Alpaca' library to generate the required forms.<br/><br/>None of these have been changed except for the page framework. In action there is no difference.
| |
| |-
| |
| | [[File:AI_Records_Editor.png|thumb]] || style="vertical-align:top;"|The Records Editor pages all use standard HTML tables and a library to enable you to edit them.<br/><br/>The only changes made to these pages was to make the buttons work with the new themes and the use a<br/>'splash' screen when you load data. This makes it more obvious that the system is busy.

|
| Where the above screenshots vary in colour, it is because I temporarily loaded alternate themes. You get 30 themes included that can also be used with the default website.
| | This has now been superseded by Version 2. (See below). |

This upload has been updated on 27th November 2021 @ 10:55am and is now Version 2 of the Interface. This update fixes the Feels Like gauges not displaying data, the Dew point temperatures title to 'Other Temperatures, and the popup editor used on the Day File, Sensor (and extra Sensor) logs pages. It is also available on the '''Forum''' under CumulusMX ~ Alternative Interfaces. | | ====Version 2==== |

| | |
| | All the above are taken from my current Version 2 of the Interface. Th only exception is the image of the dashboard that shows some of the developments I am playing with. |
| | |
| | * One is the inclusion of Davis Weather Station details so that I can see when the battery needs replacing or if there is some other issue. |
| | * The second is the inclusion of "New Record" LEDs in the appropriate panels. I don't yet know how detailed this needs to be; at the moment its limited to just the four main categories - Temperature, Pressure, Rain and Wind. It might start getting very cluttered if I include all possible LEDs. Let me know your thoughts. |
