== Testing ==
# You can force an immediate web update to test your settings by, in File menu within Cumulus 1, clicking Web Update.
# This will display a window of progress as it uploads the necessary files to your web space (or show a failure message). (Within the Configuration menu, you can turn on 'FTP logging' for full diagnostics).
#* Once completed the Cumulus 1 progress display will end with “Logging Out” and you can close the window.
Both Cumulus 1.x.y, and Cumulus MX, while running should create web pages in the local 'web' sub-directory, and upload these to the web space by FTP.
*Cumulus 1.x.y should also upload by FTP a moon image (moon.bmp), the 3 images wind images (compass.png, windgauge.png, windrose.png) as seen on Cumulus main screen, and graphs for 'trends.htm' page (hum.png, humsm.png, intemp.png, intempsm.png, press.png, presssm.png, rain.png, rainsm.png, raind.png, raindsm.png, raint.png, raintsm.png, temp.png tempsm.png, tempm.png, and tempmsm.png; optionally depending on settings it also uploads solar.png, solarsm.png, sunshine.png, sunshinesm.png, uv.png, and uvsm.png) from the 'web\images' sub-directory to the 'images' folder on your web space.
*Cumulus MX should also upload by FTP eleven .json files that Cumulus MX creates in the top level directory (that is, the one it's been installed in), for the graphs ("graphconfig.json", "tempdata.json", "pressdata.json", "winddata.json", "wdirdata.json", "humdata.json", "raindata.json", "solardata.json", "dailyrain.json", "sunhours.json", "dailytemp.json").
Apart from the differences in the user interface, and the differences in web pages for 'gauges.htm' and 'trends.htm', both versions of Cumulus generate the same web pages. When looking at the uploaded web pages using a browser, both can be tested in the same way.
