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.

Probably some of your inserts used the wrong format (blank rows, fields with real numbers where integers expected, alternatively missing or duplicated fields). See [[:Category:Log_Files]]. Note that Cumulus will only flag errors in the log files that it reads (e.g. those relating to the period for which it displays trends graphs). Check all the log files you have amended. | |||

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. | Stop Cumulus and edit [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_Station | cumulus.ini (station section)]] within the main Cumulus folder. Change the "StartDate=" line.
