| Records Began date
| (Set when you first use Cumulus)
| Format used is determined by locale used for running MX. If this date is edited, keep to same format. MX generally (see [[Calculate_Missing_Values#CreateMissing.exe]] for exceptions) ignores any data file entries prior to this date.

| Boolean:
* 0 = MX will stop if any of the minimum set of sensors listed below fails
* 1 = MX will continue to run, even if any of the minimum set of sensors listed below fails
 
Minimum set of sensors:
# Current air temperature
# Current Relative Humidity
# At least one wind speed
# Current air pressure (absolute or sea-level)
Cumulus will stop processing any information from a weather station unless the above 4 source values are being supplied and reveal they are being updated (failure is set is after a total of 6 unsuccessful consecutive attempts to read each of these).

| 1 (enabled)
|Simple tick or not
* Tick (value shown as 1 in Cumulus.ini) if your weather station has its own storage, so MX can do a catch up when it first starts and read any "archive data"
* Don't tick (value shown as 0 in Cumulus.ini) if your weather station has no storage, and therefore MX cannot capture any readings when it is not running
|-
| DataLogInterval=2
* Tick (value shown as 1 in Cumulus.ini) if your weather station can output readings to be logged in [[Extra Sensor Files]]
* Don't tick (value shown as 0 in Cumulus.ini) if you have nothing to log to Extra Sensor Files.

|-1 (that represents 0.2 mm or 0.01 inches)
| The amount of rainfall that must be collected before MX treats today as a wet day
 
''The intention is this will represent more than one tip,as the first tip might contain some rain from an earlier day''
|-

* 0 = MX will do [[MX_Basic_info#MX_End_of_Day_Process|an end of day process]] when the time (on Weather Station if it provides time) reaches midnight
* 1 = MX will do [[MX_Basic_info#MX_End_of_Day_Process|an end of day process]] when the time (on Weather Station if it provides time) reaches 9 a.m. local standard/winter time
