→What do I need to get right when first getting Cumulus?
|
It appears that Cumulus also runs on Windows 8. You may have minor issues with minimising to the task bar and similar functions.
== What do I need to get right when first getting Cumulus? ==
The installation process for Cumulus displays '''readme.txt''', that has many tips. See also [[Setup]]. Below are three key points.
# Install Cumulus in its own directory directly under a drive root.
# Connect your weather station before you start Cumulus
# When you first run Cumulus, it displays the '''Station settings''' screen. On this, make sure you pick the right sort of station (to ensure Cumulus communicates correctly with your weather station, and can identify all the observations) and choose your '''units''' wisely. (Changing units later means all stored numbers up to that point have to be converted manually). See the '''Help''' for information about the rest of the screen, but generally you can easily adjust the other options later.
