When MX is restarted, it reads the ''Cumulus.ini'' that now exists. The settings it finds tell it what options you have selected and which sections of the MX code apply for your selections of weather station type (input) and for your selections of what processing it should do, and where you want it to send weather data to (output).
The file is a simple text file. It is divided into sections with section names in square brackets (e.g. [Station]). These sections can appear in any order, by default new sections are appended after all previous sections.
Within each section, there are parameters. Each parameter is in format '''Attribute=Value''', and appears on a line to itself. The parameters, within a section, can be in any order, by default new parameters are appended at end of the relevant section.
If a new release of MX adds new parameters, then they will be automatically added to Cumulus.ini when you access that setting.
