|DataLogInterval=2
|Data log interval as selectedSelected in the Station Configuration Screen [[Cumulus_Screenshots#Station|Data log interval]] block on the right hand side and defines frequency of logged information in the [[Monthly_log_files]] and, when applicable, in [[Extra_Sensor_Files]].
*0 = 1 min
*1 = 5 mins
*2 = 10 mins (default)
*3 = 15 mins
*4 = 20 mins
*5 = 30 mins
Notes:
Note: This can be set to match your station logging interval, then if you restart Cumulus and ''if Cumulus is able to read logged data from your station'' the frequency of logged information in your [[Monthly_log_files]] will be unchanged between the periods Cumulus is running and the periods when it is stopped. Some Cumulus users set their station logging interval at a longer time so that the station does not overwrite the memory locations over the longest period they might be away from it, but this Cumulus logging interval to be one of the two shorter times so they retain the maximum measurement detail in case of any need to correct rogue measurements.
*For a Davis station set to match your station logging interval. (Otherwise you may activate the 'feature' in the Davis stations where they send the entire contents of the data logger when Cumulus asks for the data since it was last running). See Readme.txt.
*For some station Types, Cumulus only reads latest readings while it is running, and missing station readings are not captured if Cumulus is restarted.
*For other makes as ''Cumulus on restarting is able to read logged data from your station'' you can choose to match Cumulus and station logging intervals, then the frequency of logged information will be same regardless of whether Cumulus is running continuously or restarted.
*Some Cumulus users set this Cumulus logging interval to be one of the two shorter times so they retain the maximum measurement detail in case of any need to correct rogue measurements, but have set their station logging interval at a longer time so that the station does not overwrite the memory locations over the longest period they might be away. In this case, the frequency of logged information will change between the periods Cumulus is running and the catch-up readings from station logger when it is restarted.
