Introduction

Cumulus has ability to create a number of data logs, most (Speciallog.txt , Extra_Sensor_Files, and Air_Link_Log.txt) are optional, in that settings determine whether they are created or not. However, this page documents the data logs that are not optional (hence termed "standard"). These store the full set of current (read and derived) values at whatever interval you have set for Cumulus to keep detailed logging. The default time interval between adding data logging lines is every 10 minutes, but you can change this:

Cumulus 1: From Configuration menu, select the station settings screen, Data log interval box on extreme RH side.
Cumulus MX: From settings tab, select the Station settings screen, and find Log interval after the Ecowitt GW1000 Settings section.

These files are automatically created with names in the form <Month><Year>log.txt (for example, the file for August 2009 is often called Aug09log.txt), but the month can be in another language or a different abbreviation depending on your locale. There is no setting to change this format.

The standard logging file is in comma-separated format with one line per entry. Being comma separated does not mean the fields in this log are always separated by commas, they might use semi-colon (;) for example.

There is an equivalent logging file for extra sensor values. In fact, in Cumulus MX, the processing of this extra sensor logging file shares a lot of the code with the processing of the standard logging file, as they both are updated at same interval, and they both take values processed following a read from your weather station. The applications programming interface (api) that sends values between the MX engine and the MX admin interface is also identical (with a parameter "Extra" that swaps between true and false depending on the log file involved).

There is another logging file, speciallog.txt, for detailed logging of internal temperature and humidity, but it is not split into separate files for each month. Although this exists in Cumulus 1, it appears this functionality will remain missing from MX.

Finally, MX development has added another data log, this stores the output from air link sensors.

File content

This file has one line added each time the Cumulus timer says the logging interval has passed.

All data is logged in the units as selected by the user:

Cumulus 1: From Configuration menu, select the station settings screen, Units box is just below the centre of that screen.
Cumulus MX: From settings tab, select the Station settings screen, and find Units section at the start of that screen.

Each line has a number of fields separated by whatever symbol is defined as the list separator on your device, typically a comma (,) or a semi-colon (;).

The various fields are all listed later in this article, but they can be of various types:
- Date, this is always the first field, and it always uses a fixed format, ignoring the format defined in your locale.
- Time, this always the second field, and is always in the form hh:mm (Cumulus will not be able to understand the file if you edit the time to a format that includes seconds) using the 24 hour clock and local time (system time). However, if you use the feature in MX to upload the equivalent of this file to a database table, the automatic update upload will add ":00" to include seconds.
  - Note that it is perfectly possible to have two successive lines in a standard log file with same time, although this should not happen in normal running, it can result from a hiccup or other interference on your device. If you are asking MX to upload the contents of this file, a second line with same time is ignored, only the first line with a particular date and time is uploaded.
- All Remaining fields are spot values, either what has just been read from your station, or a derived value calculated from a set of values read from your station. For these value fields, Cumulus may have converted from the unit used by your weather station to the unit that you have requested to use, and there will be some inaccuracy inevitable in such conversions. Where the value to be stored is a real number with decimal places, Cumulus will use a decimal comma or decimal point depending on which is defined in your locale, do be careful not to change that locale if you need to change your device or update it, as Cumulus can only read files where the same decimal separator is used everywhere.

For more information on these files see in the Cumulus help file, in the section “The Data log file”. This is installed with Cumulus 1, but can be read with Windows after downloading from Software#Resources page in this Wiki.

Accessing the Standard Log File

Please see Calculate Missing Values and Correcting Extremes for full details on relevant functionality in Cumulus software.

Access to current log by other processes

As the log file for the current month will be updated frequently by Cumulus (when it is running), Cumulus 1 applies an exclusive lock, and conflicts can happen if another process seeks to access this file. Consequently don't let your antivirus scans access this file, nor try to edit it outside Cumulus while Cumulus is running. Whilst MX does not apply such locks, it would be unwise to externally edit a file that is being frequently updated while MX is running.

Also note these log files do not include a header line, and should not be edited to include it.

Additional ideas for how any Standard Log File can be used within Cumulus

Uploading current log to your web site

The current standard log can be updated at your usual web site update interval using <currentlogfile> as the local file name. If your web site upload interval is the same as the logging interval, there might be a conflict because of the file locking, so this might not work every time. However, extra web files are not processed all at once, so by listing this file against a higher number the chance of conflict is reduced.

- For Cumulus 1, list this log file as the local file by specifying the parameter 'ExtraLocal[0-99]=<currentlogfile>' in Cumulus.ini#Section:_FTP_Site).
- For Cumulus MX, use the Extra web files option within the "Settings" tab, and enter "<currentlogfile>" in the local column.
You can also use <currentlogfile> as part of the remote file path, as explained in the Cumulus Help. You will also need to specify a path in the remote column for MX or the 'ExtraRemote[0 to 99]=...' for Cumulus 1. You might of course want to specify a local path, and leave the FTP column unticked (or set to 0 for Cumulus 1). You can then use a separate FTP process to upload this copy.

It is recommended that you do not try to FTP the actual standard log file (instead FTP a copy) because the FTP process is relatively slow, particularly as the file size increases as the month progresses, so there is an increasing chance of conflict with logging the next line of values - see support forum here for more information.
An alternative approach is to upload the standard log file just once a day, at a quiet period such as an odd number of seconds after quarter-past midnight using a process scheduled outside Cumulus.

Cumulus 1: transferring the contents of the standard log file into a database table

A script can be used to read the your copy of the standard log file into either a database table (see ImportCumulusFile), or into an array, for further processing.
It is, as advised above, best to work with a copy of the file that Cumulus is actually updating, because there can be a conflict of the locks, Cumulus needs to have exclusive use when it does its normal update.
But this script can safely be used with older standard log files, or a copy of the latest standard log file.

Cumulus MX: transferring the contents of the standard log file into a database table

Although the ImportCumulusFile script can be used with MX too, MX provides 2 other ways to transfer the contents of a Standard Log File into a database table.

The first, uploads ALL past data, using ExportMySQL.exe found in the top level folder where CumulusMX.exe is found. It can be run using the same way as you run the main program, but you need to specify "monthly" as the first parameter (this indicates the table name that is to be updated, it does not work for any other table name).
The second, which only uploads the line most recently added to the standard log file is found in the My SQL settings section of the admin interface. Find more information at MySQL settings. In this option the default table name is "monthly", but it can be changed.

Additional Functionality in Cumulus

Additional derived values in original Cumulus software
- You can see Mean temperatures, Air frosts, Gale days, Rain days, Dry days, and Total Wind run using View menu displays for This month, This period, and This year (These figures are not stored anywhere, nor available as web tags), but Cumulus 1 can calculate these from what it finds in the standard log files and the daily summary log.
- You can use create missing button in the dayfile.txt selection in the Edit menu.
- create the relevant monthly and/or annual NOAA style report by choosing NOAA Monthly Report or NOAA Annual Report.
  - In Cumulus 1 do this from the View menu, then select the required period using the selectors. Click the Update Display button to see various statistics (including mean temperature) calculated. Generation of complete NOAA reports takes most information from dayfile.txt (based on rollover to rollover meteorological days), except average wind speed and dominant wind direction (both of these it calculates from values read from the standard log files) for period in question. Finally press Save button to store the new or amended report.

The last of these is also in MX
- In Cumulus MX, use the Reports tab, then choosing NOAA Monthly Report or NOAA Annual Report. A date selector allows you to choose the exact report you want, click "Load" button next to it. You can alternatively click another button to generate a missing report, or to regenerate an existing report after any corrections you have made to any standard log file relevant to that report.

Rules to follow if editing a standard data log

Important Rules for Cumulus 1

Each line must contain the fields in correct sequence (since new versions/builds can add to number of fields, Cumulus will accept different months having various row lengths i.e. older ones without the more recent fields at the end).
The date format uses two digits for the year and should be treated as text. For software (e.g. Excel) with default of recognising formats, ensure that such recognition is turned off, as it is likely to change the dates to either a number representing days since e.g. 31 Dec 1899, or to have four figure years, and then Cumulus will no longer be able to use the log file. (Also the month must be the middle figure, USA convention cannot apply within Log_Files).
Times in these files are in the form hh:mm using the 24 hour clock and local time (system time). See FAQ#How_does_Cumulus_handle_Daylight_Saving_Time.3F.
See #List_of_fields_in_the_file to identify if the value you enter for a particular field is an integer (like bearings and humidity values) or a real number (like pressure and rainfall values) in format x.y using your system decimal notation for the decimal point. Fields that accept real number format will also accept integers, but fields expecting integers will not accept decimal points.
Negative values are allowed for temperatures, all others must be zero or positive. Humidity has a maximum of 99, bearing has a maximum of 360.
Nulls (',,' if your field separator is a comma, ';;' if your field separator is a semicolon) are not allowed in the row, so if you do not know the value for a particular field within the row, then type in a zero, -999, or 9999 (check the format in the middle column of #List_of_fields_in_the_file and think about the range of numbers allowed for particular fields as per examples in previous bullet). In other words put in an obviously strange number as Cumulus does not have a defined null! This strange number may distort graphs and any calculations, but it will remind you to make a more appropriate guess as soon as you can.
Note that some fields (e.g. those related to evaporation, UV, solar data) will only contain valid data if your station has the appropriate sensor(s) (without the sensor they contain the default value of zero), but if they apply make sure you note which are stored as integers.

Equivalent rules for MX

All fields in all lines must contain the same character for separating one field from next and it must be consistent with whatever locale you use when you run MX (it might be set using a parameter to the command running MX, it might be set in Mono, or in Windows control panel).
Each line must contain all the fields defined in the version of MX that you are using in correct sequence
Feels like was added onto the end of this log file in version 3.5.4. Any line in any log file produced before you started using MX version 3.5.4 or later will end with Rain since midnight. However, the way that MX was modified for version 3.5.4 means that those earlier lines will be modified by the application process interface used to transfer log lines between the MX engine and the admin interface to include the full number of fields per row and to contain a space character for that additional field. Consequently, any external edit also has to add a field separator and a space to every line where the original lacked feel like.
The date format uses two digits for the year and should be treated as text. For software (e.g. Excel) with default of recognising formats, ensure that such recognition is turned off, as it is likely to change the dates to either a number representing days since e.g. 31 Dec 1899, or to have four figure years, and then Cumulus will no longer be able to use the log file. (Also the month must be the middle figure, USA convention cannot apply within Log_Files).
Times in these files are in the form hh:mm using a colon as separator, the 24 hour clock and local time (system time).
If you are editing a log file that was produced by Cumulus 1 and it used a separator other than a colon (:) then the old separator must be replaced by colon.
For MX the rules for fields containing values are different to those for Cumulus 1, which makes it difficult to successfully edit any pre MX log files. For MX if a field can take a decimal place, it must contain a decimal figure, and it must use the correct decimal separator as defined in locale. If the field only takes integers (see #List_of_fields_in_the_file) then you cannot edit in any decimal places.

Importing pre-Cumulus data

If you were recording weather data manually, or with different weather station software, you might create files, using the standard data log files format, holding that pre-Cumulus data. Cumulus can treat these files just like any where it created the data log entries, and therefore you can apply any of the techniques explained in Calculate Missing Values and Correcting Extremes.

The original Cumulus 1 software takes no notice of the <#recordsbegandate> see Webtags#Records, so it is quite happy to process standard data logs with lines with earlier dates. The same applies to ExportMySQL.exe. However, by default, CumulusMX.exe will ignore any data log lines dated before the start date it recorded in the configuration file.

Potential issues when trying to match formats

Here are some issues to consider. There are some postings in the Support Forum about importing past data. Essentially match the fields listed in List of fields in the file below with the fields you have available in your source.

Dates and times might need some pre-processing (spreadsheet packages usually have ability to select part of a text string and to concatenate a number of strings) to convert them to text in the formats mentioned above. (Note - it is crucial in a spreadsheet to treat the date as text; Do not let the spreadsheet recognise it as a date as it might change the format or store as a 'days since X' number).
Remember that null values are not allowed within a row, so ensure that you enter an obviously wrong value (-99 or zero might be do) between your operating system defined field separator (normally ',' or ';') and make the row length the minimum shown in the list of fields below. If you use a spreadsheet, treat the file as Comma Separated Value type, but on saving choose the appropriate field separator character (e.g in Libre Office or Open Office 'Save as CSV' select 'Edit Filter Settings').
Wind directions might be reported as cardinal points (north, south etc) and need converting to bearings in (integer) degrees (spreadsheet packages provide look up functionality to do such conversions).
Wind speed fields may not directly match to weather station outputs. See #Cumulus_Wind_Speed_Terminology
Temperature fields may not directly match to weather station outputs. Copy across the fields you can and set the others to -999.99 so they are obvious. See the workaround described below for a way of getting Cumulus to generate (from your newly created monthly logs) apparent temperature, wind chill and heat index to replace any -999.99 figures.
Rainfall fields may not directly match to weather station outputs. Rain rate in field 8 may be generated by following advice in Calculate Missing Values.

Cumulus Wind Speed Terminology

This section was written for the original Cumulus software. There are some differences in how MX reads information from weather stations, particularly those by Davis, but that should not affect content below.

How wind speeds relate to various weather stations is explained in FAQ. Basically there are 3 values processed by Cumulus:

Gust - the highest wind speed over a particular period (this period defaults to 10 minutes),
Average - the moving average of wind speed measurements over a particular period (this period can be set to what suits you, but defaults to 10 minutes),
Latest - the most recent (wind speed or gust speed) measurement.

FAQ: Wind speeds in Cumulus with Davis stations, the EasyWeather differences in FAQ: Wind speeds in Cumulus with Fine Offset stations and FAQ: Wind speeds with Oregon Scientific and La Crosse stations

When Cumulus is running normally, it actually stores (in the fifth item after the date in each entry, column F in a spreadsheet) the highest (moving) average in the period since the previous logger record (assuming you have a) kept default averaging interval to 10 minutes, and b) have also adjusted the logging interval from the default 15 minutes to be 10 minutes).

If Cumulus is not running, it stores the average from the station logger, that is the latest reported moving average. For this reason the most accurate wind speed records are achieved if Cumulus is running all day every day.

Cumulus calculates the monthly/annual/period average wind speed (as used for 'This ...' screens in View menu and the NOAA report) by trawling through the relevant standard logs, summing the values for those individually logged average wind speed, and dividing by the number of entries for the required calendar days. It therefore assumes that each entry has equal 'weight', i.e. each one covers the same period. If your standard log(s) is/are a mixture of values stored while Cumulus is running and values copied from the station logger during periods when Cumulus was not running, then it is possible the two logging intervals have not been set to the same time, so the output value could be skewed for that month/year/period because of the difference in what was stored and the difference in the logging interval.

Windrun is also calculated from average wind speed measurements, in this case every minute if Cumulus is running, or from the values that are logged (at station logging interval) as average wind speed when Cumulus is restarted and catches up from the station logger. Again, if Cumulus is not left running the calculated value will be skewed.

List of fields in the file

The table is split by Cumulus version for all changes since version 1.8.5; it shows:

The field number
- When this list was first produced, only the original Cumulus software was available and the decision then was to start with date in field zero to be consistent with index used for arrays in programming languages like JavaScript.
- In the data log editing page of the MX admin interface, and internally in its code, MX uses field zero for the line number, and therefore the table below has been edited so that date moves to field 1.
- For each field the equivalent letter that would be seen in a spreadsheet like Libre Office, Open Office, Excel etc is also shown in first column.
As a quick guide to which fields can take signs and which can not accept decimal places, the second column indicates formatting rules.
- Any item labelled integer will not accept any decimal places.
- Any item labelled number can in Cumulus 1 take integer or decimal values, but in MX the decimal places are mandatory.
- Any item labelled unsigned will not accept a minus sign. Those labelled signed don't need + for positive, but do need - for negative.
The third column shows an example of a value accepted by Cumulus 1
- The file content rules for MX changed in release 3.7.0, and it has not been verified that all Cumulus 1 examples are still accepted
- For Cumulus 1, where decimals are allowed, the stored value might be an integer as this depends on a number of factors, including your station type.
- If you are editing the values manually, you should use integers for humidity, wind bearings, and the two solar radiation figures
- In Cumulus 1 it is optional to use floating point for the others
- In Cumulus MX add a ".0" if necessary because MX must see decimal places where these are allowed
- Note that the figure in a field varies depending on the units you select, and your weather station may not have all the sensors needed
- In Cumulus 1 any fields defined in the version you are using for sensors you do not have will always contain zero.
- Also, for Cumulus 1 any fields that are not defined at the version when the line was created can:
  - Either be missing (no fields seen after the last field at your version)
  - Or can be null (field separators only are seen after the last field at your version)
- MX since version 3.7.0 is more fussy, but less consistent, certain fields contain a single space when not used, others contain zero, and others can be left empty
The final column describes the observation often with a link to where there is more information.
