Cumulus Support

Well, the maximum range for all users could be between -50 and +60 (in round numbers, if there are users in Death Valley and Antarctica :lol: ) I picked -20 to +40 as that covers most temperatures experienced in the UK, but I also made two extra gauges of -50 to +10, and 0 to +60, with the idea that...

Dan, what range(s) would you suggest? Ray, I have found a problem in the boxover.js script, line #30 adds a reference to an image file that does not exist (info.gif), I noticed when looking at my web server error logs. The original zip file nor the authors web page has the file either. So I have rem...

Thanks Steve, my bad memory, I could have sworn the multiple stayed the same

Ray, I noticed that there was a slight problem with the barometer3 graphic - forgot to erase the ends of the circles when I saved as a PNG. Here is an updated version. I have some work in progress to produce dial gauges for the rest of the gauges page. The incomplete version is now on my live websit...

A question for Steve on his return I guess... How does Cumulus calculate the rainfall rate for FO stations? I see it goes up in 0.9mm/h 'jumps', but the size of these jumps has remained at 0.9mm/h even though I have added a 0.25x multiplier into Cumulus to compensate for my 4x larger collection area...

mcrossley

I don't believe Cumulus has a mechanism for doing this. You would have to import the data into Excel and sort it to find the max/min values and corresponding dates/times.

mcrossley

Dan, I think this is still a work in progress so you may want to wait for the final outcome :) Ray, I have zipped up a package of all my changes. This includes: updated the Windrose graphics, now has 2 sets of velocity figures in dark red updated barmoter graphic to have an opaque background (barome...

I'll have another go in my lunch hour tomorrow. Maybe adding another set of numbers on the horizontal axis may improve it - you just need to be able to read one of the numbers on each circle. I guess that is why the original had four sets, but they are hard to read as they overlay the lines. Anyway ...

mcrossley

How about these, any better? You need to change line 270 of dashboard.js to: tgd="<div id='wind' style='"+fst+"width:220px; height:220px;'><img src='dbimages/windrose"+maxspeed+".png'></div>"; I also think it is easier to read with bigger dots, so change line 290 to: jg...

Ray I modified the original code that Steve grabebd from here: http://www.dandmbr.co.uk/jsgraphit/fwxcguide.htm I should have moved the changes over to the copy Steve uses - just in case he modified anything in there to work better with Cumulus. If you have found some problems with the script perhap...

mcrossley

I should have said that I modified the orginal javascript not the Cumulus version. I think I only changed three lines of code #182, 184, and 186. Line 186 was just to make the pointer a bit longer.

Is that a hint about the windrose

mcrossley

Here is a version that has a gauge from 850 to 1050. You also need to replace the dashboard.js file so that the pressure values scale properly.

Edit: Attachments removed, see later post for updated versions

Well airline 'executives' may have more commercial motives to get things flying than the scientists. I see the RAF grounded their Euro fighter training sorties after a single days flying resulted in ash deposit build-ups in some of the engines

mcrossley

My guess would be your internet connection still initialising when toolbox starts? Maybe start it from a script and put a delay in of a minute or so? I expect Dave will have a proper answer for you

mcrossley

For me I am happy with Cumulus 1 as it is, I'd be happy for it to be moved into a maintenance status and you concentrate on getting Cumulus 2 up and running. I don't know but I suspect adding features to C1 is going to get harder and the code more difficult to maintain - best to start with the new t...
