Extra Sensor Files: Difference between revisions

For Oregon Scientific extra temperature sensors, theirthe value from just one of them can replace the main temperature sensor - see [[Cumulus.ini#Oregon_Scientific_specific:]] and set 'WMR928TempChannel=N' parametersee appropriatelyabove.

On your website, use the [[Webtags#Extra_Sensors|webtagsweb tags listed here]] to either display current values on ayour 'latest values' [[Customised_templates|template page]] that is processed by Cumulus to either display current values (this could be the ''indexT.htm'' page) that is processed by Cumulus, or touse those web treattags as parameters for feeding your own graphics as on the 'gaugesT.htm' page. As at August 2013, Cumulus does not calculate extremes for these extra sensors (unless it is the Oregon Scientific extra temperature sensor replacing the main one).

Any extra sensor monthly log can be uploaded at your usual website update interval by specifying the parameter 'ExtraLocal[0-99]=ExtraLogyyyymm.txt' see [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_FTP_Site]], unfortunately this will need to be updated manually each month to insert the correct replacements for 'yyyymm' if you want the current log. As at August 2013, Cumulus does not calculate extremes for these extra sensors (unless it is the Oregon Scientific extra temperature sensor replacing the main one). A script written by you can then read the file into an array or database for further processing. If you are skilled enough, it is possible to write code or queries to read that array or database, calculate extremes for yourself, or draw graphs based on these logged extra values.
