My exploration of Cumulus MX has succeeded, and as the experiment did help me find a mistake in one of my Cumulus templates where I had not defined input parameters for "Recent History", it has been useful. I am continuing to use Cumulus 1 for the moment, until I am sure MX can do everything I want.
== Editing the User Interface ==
If your weather station does not have solar instrumentation you might wish to edit some of the display elements that relate to that. You need some understanding of Hyper-Text Markup Language to do this correctly, but here is a simple example.
# Navigate to '''\CumulusMX\interface''' folder.
# Open the file '''now.html''' in an editor designed for code (e.g. Notepad++ for Windows)
# Near the bottom of the file edit it by inserting HTML comment delimiters so it looks like this:
<pre><table id="SolarTable" style="width:100%">
<thead>
<tr>
<th> Solar</th>
<th></th>
<th></th>
</tr>
</thead>
<!--
<tr>
<td>Solar Radiation</td>
<td><span id="SolarRad">--</span></td>
<td>W/m<sup>2</sup></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Sunshine Today</td>
<td><span id="SunshineHours">--</span></td>
<td>hrs</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>UV</td>
<td><span id="UVindex">--</span></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
-->
</table> </pre>
= Updating to a new MX release =
It is always best to take a backup of your existing MX installation before you do an update, this allows you to regress back to the earlier version if you mess up installing the new version.
