New page

The WeatherConsole is an simple web page presenting 'live' and automatically updating information to viewers. It is a text based display with no graphics, and is easily customised to suit your own site design.

Click on the example screen shot on the right
[[File:Wconsole.png|250px|thumb|Example screen]]

=Requirements=
*a website
*Cumulus [[realtime.txt]] file being updated regularly by Cumulus

=The Basics=

*download the following file...[http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/files/CumulusWeatherConsole.zip CumulusWeatherConsole.zip]
*Unzip the contents (four files will be extracted)
*Edit the file wconsole.js. There are two lines which need modified at the top. The location of your realtime.txt data file, and how often to refresh the display.
*Copy all the files to your web site into a subfolder, or the root -- your choice
*open wconsole.html in a browser

=Possible problems=

*If the WeatherConsole can not find your realtime.txt file it will give an error. Check the setting in wconsole.js. The location is typically a folder location on your webserver. Examples could be /realtime.txt or /data/realtime.txt

=Personalising=

*Edit wconsole.html and modify the wording after <TITLE> on the 6th line. This is the text to be displayed in the title bar at the top of the window. You may also wish to edit line 20 to a more personalised title shown within the browser itself.

*All colouring can be adjusted in the [[stylesheets|stylesheet]] file wconsole.css
