If you were archiving your Easyweather.dat files, you may need to repeat the whole above process for futher source files, until you have the whole period you want. When Sfws did this process, he tried to merge the exported files before creating the Cumulus logs, but dealing with 2 full years of frequent pre-Cumulus observations meant he had a massive spreadsheet with almost a million cells, and it made separation into day by day or month by month for feeding into the Cumulus logs more difficult.
==Station configuration screen: Using 'EasyWeather.dat' file as current
You might want to run EasyWeather software, perhaps for testing purposes, and use its output file as the
From version 1.9.4 build 1071 onwards Cumulus assumes 'easyWeatherPlus.dat' format if ''extra sensors'' ticked and 'easyweather.dat' format if ''extra sensors'' is unticked.
Remember, it is better to select the ''Fine Offset (WH1080 etc)'' input (this reads observations by most models directly via USB without EasyWeather software) for normal operational purposes (again see Cumulus help for station configuration screen) as that allows Cumulus to do more. If your station model measures UV and solar light intensities, the recommended input selection is ''Fine Offset with UV/Light sensor''.▼
