The read-only parameters must be entered directly into the configuration file. Stop Cumulus before editing this file using any plain text editor, not a word processor
{{Version badge 1}}
[[File:Badge vMx.png]] The read-write parameters are set using the '''Station Settings''' page in MX.
See individual parameters for specific instructions on setting them. The defaults are shown in left hand column, but be aware that some might have different defaults in C1 and MX, and that this article was first created when only Cumulus 1 was available.
{| class="wikitable" border="1"
0= (default) turn off creation of WebTags.txt file (stored in main Cumulus folder)
1= create WebTags.txt file when Cumulus is restarted (contains an unordered list of all the web tags your Cumulus build will recognise and process)
|-▼
|RainDayThreshold=-1▼
|If this parameter is not included in the file, the default is '''-1''' and that represents 0.2 mm or 0.01 inches.
#The parameter specifies the threshold value which the daily rainfall has to equal or exceed for the day to be considered a 'rain day'.
#Value is entered in your current [[Rain_measurement]] units.
|-▼
|NoFlashWetDryDayRecords=1▼
| * When set to 1 (default) stops new Longest Wet/Dry Period records being 'flashed' in Cumulus 1
* Set to 0 if you are happy to have the record light on your Cumulus 1 main screen flash for each rainfall update
[[File:Badge vMx.png]]It is not clear if MX reads this parameter, as it does not show this record on the admin interface dashboard

|YTDrainyear=0
|Selected in the same settings page as other parameters. The year for which the previous parameter (YTDrain) is to be applied. Default is 0 meaning not applied to any year. Note if you selected a month other than January in "RainSeasonStart" parameter, you will need to change this "YTDrainyear" when the calendar year changes during your first 'rain season' and change it to 0 when you reach the same "RainSeasonStart" month and start your second 'rain season'.
