 Some Cumulus 1 builds did not store correct values for those using 9am/10am rollover, see [[alltime.ini]] for some examples.
-Any date/time entries are in different formats for Cumulus 1 and Cumulus MX as illustrated for [[month.ini]]. That page also tells you what you need to do if you move from Cumulus 1 to Cumulus MX and wish to keep using existing files in the "data" folder.
+Any date/time entries are in different formats for Cumulus 1 and Cumulus MX as illustrated for [[month.ini]]. That page also tells you that MX can read the Cumulus 1 date/time formats, so if you move a "year.ini" from Cumulus 1 you do not need to edit the date/time entries, MX will update them when its hits the first new extreme to record for the year.
+If you do move "year.ini" from Cumulus 1 to Cumulus MX and were using a comma as your decimal separator (e.g. 12,1) you will need to edit your file and change each (e.g. 12.1) to use a full stop before MX can read it.
