When Cumulus is restarted, if the weather station provides historical catch-up data, then the interval between entries for that period when Cumulus was not running, is stored at whatever interval the historical catch-up data uses. Entries less than a week old, from when MX was previously running will be retained, and those will be at one minute interval. | When Cumulus is restarted, if the weather station provides historical catch-up data, then the interval between entries for that period when Cumulus was not running, is stored at whatever interval the historical catch-up data uses.

The data are held in [[cumulusmx.db|RecentData table in cumulusmx.db]] (uses SQLite). There are many software tools available that can read/edit SQLite3, this is not the place to get too technical, but take a look at '''sqlitebrowser''' in a Windows and Linux environment, and '''phpLiteAdmin''' in Microsoft Windows. Also, you could use any application that can read ODBC files (e.g. Libre Office's Base functionality) can read the MX databases. | |||
