|DavisCalcAltPress=1

|Davis stations calculate Sea Level Pressure from Station Pressure using a formula based on several parameters such as temperature, humidity, etc, rather than just using altitude as most other stations. CWOP require 'Altimeter Pressure' to be uploaded, i.e. a value calculated simply using altitude. The station does not provide this value directly, nor the station pressure, so Cumulus has to read some extra data once a minute in order to do the calculation. This can take several seconds, so it means that a 'normal' data reading may be missed.

|UVdecimals=1

|UV values are now displayed and logged as whole numbers by default. You can change this by adding this entry specifying the number of decimal places.

*0 = Integer Values (default)

|-

|NoSensorCheck=1

|The option (for 'incomplete' stations) to disable the sensor check described in this [http://wiki.sandaysoft.com/a/FAQ#Cumulus_isn.27t_performing_periodic_tasks.2C_like_data_logging_or_web_uploads FAQ]

*0 = Sensor check enabled (default)

|-

|RG11port=1

|Specifies the COM port to use for Hydreon RG-11 rain detection devices. 1 = COM1

|-

|RG11TBRmode=1

|Specifies the Hydreon RG-11 rain device mode of operation.

*0 = Rain detection mode - "It's Raining"

|-

|RG11tipsize=0.01

|Specifies the tipping bucket size for Hydreon RG-11 rain detection devices. The 'tip size' must be specified in the units that you have configured Cumulus to use for rain.

|-

 

RG11tipsize2=

|Settings to connect a second Hydreon RG-11 rain detection device.

Note that you must have one RG-11 set to "It's raining" mode and the other to "tipping bucket" mode. Cumulus does not validate this.

|-

|SyncFOReads=1

|Specifies the Fine Offset synchronisation mode of operation.

*0 = default
