[[File:Badge v1.png]] Cumulus 1.9.x supports all the web tags listed in table below, with the exception of those relating to "feels like".
[[File:Badge v1.png]] Cumulus 1.9.x supports all the web tags listed in table below, with the exception of those relating to "humidex" and "feels like".


[[File:Badge vMx.png]] For versions up to 3.5.0 Cumulus MX works in a different way both in terms of how tags are set (see various topics in support forum) and how they are cleared (essentially the end of rollover clears records, so daily records are only shown for the few microseconds while rollover is being processed). From version 3.5.1, Cumulus MX offers all the web tags listed in table below. These will be set from the time of the record until a timeout value (default 24 hours). You can change the default timeout by adding this <tt>RecordSetTimeoutHrs=24</tt> entry to [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_Station|[Station] section in Cumulus.ini]] where the default '24' can be changed to a different number of hours.
[[File:Badge v1.png]] For Cumulus 1 the tags are cleared in one of two ways:
#Generation of a web page where the web tag is set, clears the record for that web tag.
#Viewing of an extreme screen tab clears all records listed on that tab.
 
[[File:Badge vMx.png]] For versions up to 3.5.0 Cumulus MX works in a different way both in terms of how tags are set (see various topics in support forum) and how they are cleared (essentially the end of rollover clears records, so daily records are only shown for the few microseconds while rollover is being processed). From version 3.7.0, Cumulus MX offers all the web tags listed in table below, at earlier versions it offers a subset of those listed.  
 
[[File:Badge vMx.png]] For MX these web tags will be set from the time of the record until a timeout value is met (by default each record remains set for 24 hours).  
 
You can change the default timeout by adding this <tt>RecordSetTimeoutHrs=NN</tt> entry to [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_Station|[Station] section in Cumulus.ini]] '''NN''' can be set to any reasonable integer representing hours (for the default set the number '''NN''' to '24').
