Category:Cumulus MX: Difference between revisions

One more lesson, you cannot have Cumulus 1 and Cumulus MX running at same time, accessing same weather station. If you sometimes run one flavour (say MX) and sometimes the other (Cumulus 1), you must copy all the updated log files from the ''just used'' data folder to the data folder you are ''about to use'' when you close one favour before you start the other flavour, or you must have both executables in same top level folder to force them to share the data folder. If you don't do either of those alternatives, various derivatives (e.g. Chill Hours) will become wrong and you may have conflicting rows in dayfile.txt (because its content is generated from what that flavour saw when it was running the previous day) and generally this will be particularly evident in any weather parameter that varies a lot like wind vector.
