Welcome to the Cumulus Wiki.

This copy of the original Cumulus Wiki was cloned on 26-Oct-2018 (see about the Cumulus Wiki) and all user credentials from the deleted original Wiki hosted by sandaysoft.com should be valid here.

You do not need a userid to READ any of the content on this Wiki. If you plan on CONTRIBUTING to the Wiki, then you will need a userid.

  • Please use the Request Account form to apply for a userid,
  • or if you have a userid, then just Login.

When requesting a Wiki account, it would be helpful if you can use the same user name as on the Cumulus forum (but use a different password!), it makes it easier for the admins to identify genuine account requests from spammers.

Brian Underdown (weather34) has allowed us to host his Home Weather Station template for Cumulus on the Wiki.

Through this community Wiki we aim to share our knowledge of the Cumulus Weather Station software. The Cumulus Wiki is intended to help you whichever build of Cumulus Software you are running. It was originated to document the (original) Cumulus software Steve Loft developed, and modified to also cover other flavours (Cumulus 2 and MX beta) Steve Loft developed.

Mark Crossley is continuing development of Cumulus MX (3) so fast that this Wiki is often out of date. A lot of this Wiki needs to be rewritten to be friendly to those who whose first encounter with Cumulus is a MX release.

If you have any questions please raise them on either the Cumulus forum or Cumulus board at WXForum.net.
