|style="background:lightgray;"|Section name - the following parameters relate to the station configuration.

|DavisRainCollectorModel=X
|This parameter (attribute=value) is added directly to the file, it does not appear on a configuration screen. (Available from Build 1096 of version 1.9.4)
Option to specify rain collector model for Davis stations for situations where the Davis DLL is unable to read it from station, and your rain figures in Cumulus are incorrect as a result (can happen when using Virtual VP, for example).
Value X is an integer from 0 to 5 with the following meanings:
*0 = 0.1 inch
*1 = 0.01 inch
*2 = 0.2 mm
*3 = 1 mm
*4 = 'other' inch
*5 = 'other' mm

|ForceVPBarUpdate=0

|VP2SleepInterval=x
|where x is sleepinterval in milliseconds.
|whereThis xparameter (attribute=value) is sleepintervaladded directly to the file, it does not appear on a inconfiguration millisecondsscreen. See note in ''readme.txt'' about VP2SleepInterval - in current release it is around line 50. This parameter (attribute=value) is added directly to the file, it does not appear on a configuration screen. See [[FAQ#My_Davis_station_shows_a_higher_maximum_wind_speed_than_Cumulus]]
This is the period which Cumulus waits between reads of the data from Davis stations. The default is 500 ms; if you suspect that data is being missed, you could try reducing this figure. For VirtualVP users, tests revealed that VP2SleepInterval = 1100 seems to work the best. It updates every two seconds with few exceptions.
