If you stored data from your weather station (on another file-based system) before you first ran Cumulus, then you may be able to (using a text editor outside Cumulus) generate [[Monthly log files]] for the pre-Cumulus period. See that Wiki article for more information on what you can then do with those files within Cumulus. | If you stored data from your weather station (on another file-based system) before you first ran Cumulus, then you may be able to (using a text editor outside Cumulus) generate [[Monthly log files]] for the pre-Cumulus period.

== I have inserted pre-Cumulus data making 'Records began on' date wrong == | |||
Stop Cumulus and edit [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_Station | cumulus.ini (station section)]] within the main Cumulus folder. Change the "StartDate=" line. Be sure to use the same format for the date. | |||
This start date (that Cumulus first started tracking all-time records) is on the default Cumulus ''recordsT.htm'' template with the label "Records began on" followed by [[Webtags#Records |<#recordsbegandate>]], note it does ''not'' need to be updated for Cumulus to recognise earlier data in log files in its ''data'' subfolder and obviously there is an alternative of editing description to say "Cumulus began on" and leaving cumulus.ini unchanged. | |||
