Re: Low battery alarm

Thanks everyone for the responses. I thought it was set at 5.4V but wanted to confirm and also find out if it was configurable. Time for battery replacement obviously.

Regards,
Trevor

Low battery alarm

Hi,

Could you please tell me what the threshold is for the Battery Low Alarm being activated on the WLL. Is this configurable at all?

Re: Installing .net on RPi

Hi Martyn, I think you will need to be in the /home/pi/CumulusMX directory to run the install otherwise the command won't find the CumulusMX.dll file. You will also need to use the -servicename flag so it knows what to call the service file to be created and the -group flag. Your command to run CMX ...

Re: Need help adjusting crazy yearly rainfall totals

Use with caution. I did this once and it threw a ridiculous figure into Cumulus which I then had to edit.

Re: Installing .net on RPi

Hi Mark, I used the supplied service file and manually renamed and edited it. I then copied it to /etc/systemd/system and reloaded the service definitions. From your original instructions about running two services I didn't think I could create it automatically without affecting the existing service...

Hi Roger, Thanks for that. I edited the cumulusmx.service file as I'm still running V3 as a service. Renamed it to cumulusmx-rpi.service and changed the contents as follows - [Service] User=pi Group=pi WorkingDirectory=/home/pi/CumulusMX-RPI/CumulusMX.exe ExecStart=/opt/dotnet/dotnet CumulusMX.dll -...

Re: Installing .net on RPi

So I've got .Net 8 installed and have done a fresh install of CumulusMX. I've run the conversion utility on my data files but what command do I use to run Cumulus interactively? I didn't want to install it as a service until I was sure everything was working fine.

Re: How long after .01" rain to wait until next .01" for storm

Hi Bridgeman, According to Davis, the definition for a Storm Event is as follows: The rain total of the last rain event. It takes two tips of the rain spoon to begin a storm event and 24 hours without rain to end a storm event. Therefore the Storm Event wasn't triggered until 23:26-hrs which is why ...

DOES THIS MEAN SUCCESS? I do hope so. Martyn Hi Martyn, I am also running Buster. Would you mind providing a step-by-step instruction on how you eventually installed .Net 8. I've tried a few things without success and my Linux knowledge is fairly limited (been a Windows man for too many years). Reg...

Re: ERROR: No broadcast data received from the WLL for 30 seconds

I tried running V3 and V4 side by side and it seemed only one instance was able to read the WLL at any given time. If I stopped one then the one still running received broadcasts fine but as soon as both were running, one would start to get the broadcast error.
