*If you want to operate the 'standard' web site, then just the same as with Cumulus 1, you will need to upload the contents of the '''webfiles''' folder from the zip file (don't upload the containing webfiles folder itself).
*Note that the MX web files are not the same as the ones for Cumulus 1, so make sure you upload the MX files if moving from Cumulus 1 to MX.
*The standard gauges are now the SteelSeries gauges. The default versions do not display a graph when you hover over a gauge as happened when you added the stand-alone Steel Series gauges to Cumulus 1.
*The trends web page in Cumulus 1 relied on that software generating graphs as images. In MX, the software generates files with time and value pairs, these are stored in json format, the trends page then uses a library package (Highstocks) to draw graphs from those data pairs.
*You can use your own web pages, if they require figures that are available as web tags, MX can process files with those tags, and upload at either the real-time interval, the standard interval, or after end of day. You might therefore have several files processed by Cumulus MX at theese different intervals, converting the web tags into script variables, and then use AJAX or PHP to put those variables into a web page.
