Cumulus is free software for retrieving, storing and displaying data from an electronic Automatic Weather Station (AWS).<br />
<br />
Cumulus will store full weather records, along with daily and all-time records, and graphical data. Cumulus can upload its data to a web server and comes packaged with template web pages for this purpose. Cumulus also supports automatic uploads to Weather Underground and CWOP/APRS.<br />
<br />
A variety of example [[Cumulus Screenshots|screen shots]] are available.<br />
<br />
The current [[Cumulus Versions|version]] is 1.8.7 (June 26, 2009)<br />
<br />
Full product details are available on the official [http://sandaysoft.com/products/cumulus Cumulus webpage] including details on how to download<br />

*Fine Offset stations such as the WH1081<br />
*La Crosse WS-2300 range.<br />
<br />
''Warning: If your weather station is a La Crosse and it is connected using a serial/USB adapter, then you will probably have problems using it with Cumulus, in that you will get erroneous data from time to time. These weather stations are known to have problems with serial/USB adapters, and for some reason Cumulus seems to suffer more than other software. There doesn’t seem to be anything I can do about this. For this reason, I am sorry to say that I cannot support the use of Cumulus in this way.''<br />
<br />
<br />
==Supported Operating Systems==<br />
<br />
Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Home Server, and Windows Server 2008. It may also work on Windows 2000, but this is not supported. You will probably not be able to get it to work on Windows 2000 with a Fine Offset station.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
==Key Features==<br />
*Free for personal and non-profit use, but a donation would be appreciated if you continue to use Cumulus after trying it<br />

<div>==Cookies==<br />
<br />
The sites set a temporary session cookie on a visitor's computer whenever a page is visited. Readers who do not intend to log in or edit may deny this cookie; it will be deleted at the end of the browser's session. More cookies may be set when one logs in to maintain logged-in status. If one saves a user name or password in one's browser, that information will be saved for up to 30 days, and this information will be resent to the server on every visit to the same Project. Contributors using a public machine who do not wish to show their username to future users of the machine should clear these cookies after use.<br />
<br />
==Page history==<br />
<br />
Edits or other contributions to a Page or its articles, user pages and talk pages are generally retained forever. Removing text from a project does not permanently delete it. Normally, anyone can look at a previous version of an article and see what was there. Even if an article is "deleted", a user entrusted with higher level of access may still see what was removed from public view. <br />
<br />
==User contribution==<br />
<br />
User contributions are also aggregated and publicly available. User contributions are aggregated according to their registration and login status. Data on user contributions, such as the times at which users edited and the number of edits they have made, are publicly available via user contributions lists, and in aggregated forms published by other users.<br />

We retain no details beyond your email address, username, password and full name if provided by you. No other information is requested, required, or stored.

<div><big>'''Welcome to the Cumulus Wiki.'''</big><br />
<br />
<br />
Through this community Wiki we aim to share our knowledge of the [http://sandaysoft.com/products/cumulus Cumulus] Weather Station software.<br />
<br />
If you are new to Wiki's we suggest you spend a few minutes reading a brief introduction on how to use the Wiki. Firstly familiarise yourself with the [[Help:Contents/tabs|layout]] and then how to read and [[Help:Contents#Searching|search]] the Wiki.<br />
<br />
<br />
As well as reading the information within the Wiki we welcome contributions from the community -- you could simply edit and existing page or write a new page. We have full details on how to [[Help:Contents#Contributing_to_the_Wiki|contribute]] to the Cumulus Wiki<br />
<br />
<br />
If you have any questions take a moment to [[Help:Communicate|talk]] to the [[User:WikiAdmin|WikiAdministrator]]</div>WikiAdminhttps://www.cumuluswiki.org/index.php?title=Help:Contents/Editing&diff=18Help:Contents/Editing2009-08-12T22:14:53Z<p>WikiAdmin: Protected "Help:Contents/Editing" ([edit=sysop] (indefinite) [move=sysop] (indefinite))</p>
<hr />
<div>'''Remember: In the Cumulus Wiki you can only edit/create pages if you are [[Special:RequestAccount|Registered]] and Logged in.'''<br />
<br />
==Creating a new page==<br />
<br />
The simplest way to create a new page is to search for the topic. If there are no pages which satisfy you then use the 'Create this Page' option at the top of the search results page. <br />
<br />
<br />
==Editing a page==<br />
<br />
If you wish to edit an existing page simply search for it and then click the 'Edit' tab at the top.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Wiki formatting==<br />
<br />
When writing for a Wiki there are a number of formats you can write in. The most common, and preferred method, is Wiki Markup or WikiText. This is simply text with a variety of symbols to quickly produce consistent and navigable pages. In the following sections you will learn the basics of WikiText. This is a very powerful markup language however what is detailed below is a good starting point.<br />
<br />
In addition to WikiText you can write part or all of the page in HTML, PHP, Javascript and a few other languages. Where ever possible use WikiText as it is the most efficient for delivery and formatting. After a few minutes of writing a page you will be familiar with the basics.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Plain text===<br />
This will be the bulk of your page and you simply type as you would read, with sentences, punctuation and paragraphs.<br />
<br />
<br />
===Formatting your text===<br />
====Itallics====<br />
Two apostrophes either side of your text will italicise it.<br />
<br />
:Example: <tt><nowiki>This should have the last word in ''italics''</nowiki></tt><br/><br />
:Result: This should have the last word in ''italics''<br />
<br />
====Bold====<br />
Three apostrophes either side of your text will make it bold.<br />
<br />
:Example: <tt><nowiki>This should have the last word in '''bold'''</nowiki></tt><br/><br />
:Result: This should have the last word in '''bold'''<br />
<br/><br />
Use five apostrophes either side to bold and italicise.<br />
<br/><br />
Four apostrophes does nothing!<br />
<br />
====Underline====<br />
use the HTML markup for underline. <nowiki><u></nowiki> tag at the start and <nowiki></u></nowiki> at the end of your word of phrase.<br />
<br />
<br />
===New Paragraphs===<br />
To start a new paragraph simply press the Return key as you would in any editor. If you wish to force a further paragraph use <nowiki><br/></nowiki> at the end of the line.<br />
<br />
===Creating Sections===<br />
If you are writing anything longer than a few paragraphs there will be a good chance that it reads better if split into sections and a table of contents at the top (as with this page). WikiText will automatically create the sections, deal with all the formatting and create the table of contents at the top of your page. All you need do is mark your headings appropriately.<br />
<br />
Start your Section name on a new line, with two equals symbols and end the section name in the same way.<br/><br />
Example....<br/><br />
<nowiki><br />
==Weather Stats==</nowiki><br/><br />
Normaly text, and paragphs<br/><br />
<nowiki>==Historic Facts==</nowiki><br/><br />
More text<br/><br />
<br/><br />
Create sub-sctions by using more equals signs. <br/><br />
Example....<br/><br />
<nowiki><br />
==Weather Stats==</nowiki><br/><br />
Normaly text, and paragphs<br/><br />
<nowiki>===This Year===</nowiki><br/><br />
this years data<br/><br />
<nowiki>===Last Year===</nowiki><br/><br />
Last years data<br/><br />
<nowiki>==Historic Facts==</nowiki><br/><br />
More text<br/><br />
<br />
<br/><br />
If you create more than three sections, the Wiki will automatically generate a contents page at the top of the page.<br />
<br />
===Lists===<br />
Simple lists with bullets are produced by starting the paragraph with a * symbol. For sub-sections use multiple symbols. <br />
<br />
Number lists start with a # signs<br />
<br />
Indent a paragraph by starting with a : symbol<br />
<br />
<br />
==Page Linking==<br />
<br />
One of the most useful features of any page is referring the reader to informatin on other pages to futher expand their knowledge or explain something in more detail.<br />
<br />
If you are referring to a page in the Cumulus Wiki simply enclose the name of the page is two square brackets.<br />
<br />
Example: <nowiki>[[Webtags]]</nowiki><br />
<br />
When the reader clicks on the word Webtags they will be taken to the page of the same name. If you wish to show a different word or phrase from the page name use the | symbol<br />
<br />
Example: <nowiki>[[Webtags|Special tags]]</nowiki><br />
<br />
In this case, the user will see the words Special tags but when they click it will take them to the Webtags page<br />
<br />
if you wish to link to a page outwith the Cumulus Wiki, enclosed the full URL, a space, and a word or phrase in one set of square brackets.<br />
<br />
Example: <nowiki>[http://www.google.com Google]</nowiki><br />
<br />
The reader will see the word Google but when clicked will be taken to an external page.<br />
<br/><br/><br />
'''Be careful with the case of the page name when linking in Wiki.''' Pages always start with a capital letter but after this the case is important. So linking to <nowiki>[[webtags]]</nowiki> or <nowiki>[[Webtags]]</nowiki> is the same as Wiki will always uppercase the first letter. However <nowiki>[[webTags]]</nowiki> would fail as the real page does not have an uppercase T<br />
<br/><br/><br />
If you link to an internal page name that does not exist, it will appear in red on the page. You, or the user, can then create the page. This is a quick way to create a new page!<br />
<br />
<br />
==Using images==<br />
<br />
If you wish to include an image in your page, you must first upload the image to the Wiki. You can then refer to it with your text.<br />
<br />
To upload the image, use the [[Special:Upload|Upload file]] option in the toolbox in the navigation bar on the left. Once uploaded you may insert your image on your page using the the square brackets, the word 'file:' and the filename. Example <nowiki>[[File:map.jpg]]</nowiki><br />
<br />
<br />
==Identify your updates to others==<br />
<br />
The Cumulus Wiki keeps a historic copy of every change on every page of the system. Before you save your page, take a moment to complete the Summary box at the bottom and explain why you edited the page. If this is a minor edit tick the box. A minor edit would typically be you fixing a typo, spelling error or layout problem. Major edits are new content, updated content, etc.<br />
<br />
We log who changed the page and when so your username will appear on the 'History' tab.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Editing Tips==<br />
*Always Preview your work, refine, and preview again before saving. <br />
*If you are not sure how to do something in WikiText, look at another page and 'View Source' (if you are not logged in) or Edit the page (but do not save) to see how someone else has formatted a page.<br />
*User your own [[Special:Mypage|user page]] to experiment. Click on your name at the top of the screen and edit your own page.<br />
*Don't over save as the system retains a history of every save. Save only when your article/edit is complete.<br />
*A few of the pages on the Cumulus Wiki are protected and only editable by Administrators. For example, the main page, help, disclaimer, etc. The majority of pages are fully editable by registered users.<br />
<br />

<div>As a user you may perform a number of tasks on the Wiki:<br />
<br />
==Reading==<br />
<br />
As with all Wiki's everyone is free to read the content on the site. As you read an article you may follow links to other pages on our Wiki or externally. Links within our Wiki are shown in blue. Links to external sites are shown in blue with an arrow proceeding them. If you come across a link in <span style="color:red">red</span>, this means the page you are linking to has yet to be created.<br />
<br />
Examples:<br />
*an internal Wiki link to our [[Main Page]] <br />
*a link to the external site for [http://sandaysoft.com/products/cumulus Cumulus]<br />
<br/><br />
You are free to copy and reference any content on the site but you must provide a link back to the original article in our Wiki.<br />
<br />
==Searching==<br />
<br />
On the left of every page is a search bar -- in here type any word or phrase. <br />
===Go button===<br />
Clicking the GO button will attempt to take you to the page with the exact word or phrase you have typed. Use this as quick way to navigate to a page you know already exists.<br />
<br />
===Search button===<br />
Click the Search button will perform an extensive search of all the pages in our Wiki in an attempt to find your word or phrase. The results will be displayed in a new page for you to review and refine.<br />
<br />
*Searching is case insensitive -- searching for weather, Weather, or WEATHER return the same results<br />
*Search for a complete phrase using quotation marks. Example "Cumulus software"<br />
*Wildcard searching -- wind* would find Wind, Windy, Windspeed....<br />
<br />
<br />
For extensive assistance on how to search, see [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Searching here]<br />
<br/><br />
==Contributing to the Wiki==<br />
<br />
Anyone is welcome to contribute to the Cumulus Wiki. You may either edit an existing page or create new ones. Before editing you must register with us, which is a simple process.<br />
<br />
When writing or editing a page you will be expected to adhere to simple rules on formatting. It may take a few minutes to get used to the new style of coding, however it becomes second nature very quickly and you can easily produce an informative page with minimum effort.<br />
<br />
For help on writing in the Wiki style click [[Help:Contents/Editing|here]]<br />
<br />
<br />
==Communicate with others==<br />
<br />
If you wish to leave a message for another user on the Cumulus Wiki use the 'talk' option. First click on the Users name to show their Page and then their 'talk' tab. (Typically you see user names in the History tab of a page). Either Edit the page or Create a new one if no one has talked to the user before. After typing your message it is good etiquette to mark your message with the date, time and your username (so that they can respond). To quickly do this, end your message with four tilde symbols (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>)<br />
<br />
Once you save the page, the user will receive an email message to say their talk page has been updated. In addition a banner will be displayed at the top of the page when they login.<br />
<br />
<br />
==Registering==<br />
<br />
Registration is only require if you wish to edit or create pages. Rather than allow anonymous editing, we ask that you take a few minutes to register. We will activate your account and you are free to contribute to the Wiki. By doing this we aim to protect the Wiki from malicious use and the integrity of the information contained within. <br />
<br />
Please note that during activation you will be sent an email to confirm your address, once done a manual review process is necessary and this may take a little time to complete depending on what time of day you register.<br />
<br />
<br />
To register for a free account either use the 'Log in' option at the top right of any page and Request an account or simply click [[Special:RequestAccount|here]]</div>WikiAdminhttps://www.cumuluswiki.org/index.php?title=CumulusWiki:Privacy_policy&diff=15CumulusWiki:Privacy policy2009-08-12T19:23:27Z<p>WikiAdmin: Added link to Terms of Service</p>

<div>==Cookies==<br />
<br />
The sites set a temporary session cookie on a visitor's computer whenever a page is visited. Readers who do not intend to log in or edit may deny this cookie; it will be deleted at the end of the browser's session. More cookies may be set when one logs in to maintain logged-in status. If one saves a user name or password in one's browser, that information will be saved for up to 30 days, and this information will be resent to the server on every visit to the same Project. Contributors using a public machine who do not wish to show their username to future users of the machine should clear these cookies after use.<br />
<br />
==Page history==<br />
<br />
Edits or other contributions to a Page or its articles, user pages and talk pages are generally retained forever. Removing text from a project does not permanently delete it. Normally, anyone can look at a previous version of an article and see what was there. Even if an article is "deleted", a user entrusted with higher level of access may still see what was removed from public view. <br />
<br />
==User contribution==<br />
<br />
User contributions are also aggregated and publicly available. User contributions are aggregated according to their registration and login status. Data on user contributions, such as the times at which users edited and the number of edits they have made, are publicly available via user contributions lists, and in aggregated forms published by other users.<br />
<br />
==Personal Information==<br />

<div>==Cookies==<br />
<br />
The sites set a temporary session cookie on a visitor's computer whenever a page is visited. Readers who do not intend to log in or edit may deny this cookie; it will be deleted at the end of the browser's session. More cookies may be set when one logs in to maintain logged-in status. If one saves a user name or password in one's browser, that information will be saved for up to 30 days, and this information will be resent to the server on every visit to the same Project. Contributors using a public machine who do not wish to show their username to future users of the machine should clear these cookies after use.<br />
<br />
==Page history==<br />
<br />
Edits or other contributions to a Page or its articles, user pages and talk pages are generally retained forever. Removing text from a project does not permanently delete it. Normally, anyone can look at a previous version of an article and see what was there. Even if an article is "deleted", a user entrusted with higher level of access may still see what was removed from public view. <br />
<br />
==User contribution==<br />
<br />
User contributions are also aggregated and publicly available. User contributions are aggregated according to their registration and login status. Data on user contributions, such as the times at which users edited and the number of edits they have made, are publicly available via user contributions lists, and in aggregated forms published by other users.<br />
<br />
==Personal Information==<br />

We retain no details beyond your email address, username, password and full name if provided by you. No other information is requested, required, or stored.
