When Cumulus starts, it asks the station for all the data from the logger since the last time it was running. If the timestamptime-stamp that it supplies does not exactly match the timestamptime-stamp of an entry in the Davis logger, the station has a strange 'feature' where it decides to send the entire contents of the logger. This will take some time to download, during which the Davis console display may appear to freeze.

#It is recommended that you set the logging interval in Cumulus (in the 'Data log interval' block accessed from the ''Configuration'' menu '''Station''' Screen) to the same interval as the station (the station interval can be changed using Weatherlink), then Cumulus will be able to make sure it uses a timestamptime-stamp that matches an entry in the logger. Note that this is mentioned in the '''readme.txt''' file whichthat appears during the Cumulus installation, which you were asked to read at the time. If you didn't read it, it is strongly recommended that you do so now; it contains important information.
