=== WeatherLink Converter ===
 
This utility was provided by Steve to convert Davis '''WeatherLink''' log files to Cumulus format, download it [https://cumuluswiki.org/a/File:WLconverter.zip here]. Please carefully read the '''readme''' file in the zip to understand how to use this utility.
 
Note this has nothing to do with Davis ''Weather Link Live'' despite confusing similarity in name.
 
Basically, this converter utility reads '''.wlk''' files, it creates a folder called '''converted''' into which it places [[Standard log files]] and [[dayfile.txt]] files as used by Cumulus software. You need to be able to manually merge (using a text file editor) the newly created files with any files of same name in your Cumulus [[data folder|'''data''' folder]]. You might also want to read (although not directly related to this converter utility) [[Amending_dayfile#Importing_data_not_recorded_by_Cumulus|Importing_data_not_recorded_by_Cumulus]].
Please read the '''readme''' file in the zip.
