== Can I import logged information from before I installed Cumulus? ==
Yes, providing you can manipulate the information you have into either (preferably) the format used by the [[Monthly_log_files#Importing_pre-Cumulus_data]] or (second best) [[Dayfile.txt]]. Look up these cross-references for further information on required formats. The support forum includes a few threads related to this topic, and if you post there then people who have already imported from particular systems may offer their services to import your past observations.

== I was away on the last day of last month/year - How do I see the final lowest and highest figures for last month/year? ==
== Can I connect/disconnect my weather station while Cumulus is running? ==
No. You must make sure your weather station is connected to your PC and switched on, before running Cumulus. Do not disconnect your station while Cumulus is running.
 
 
== How does Cumulus deal with extra sensors? ==
By default, Cumulus deals with weather stations incorporating solar sensors, if you have selected the relevant station 'Type' or 'Display solar/extra data' in configuration, but it has some capability to deal with extra sensors added including the Blake-Larsen Sun Recorder.
