New

  • Adds a new station type of Ecowitt Cloud. This is intended to be used with those Ecowitt console that no not have a local API, cannot use the HTTP protocol, or are located remotely.
    • It grabs the data from the Ecowitt cloud servers. This data is updated once a minute and is slightly less rich than the locally available API data.
    • This station can also be used as a source of Extra Sensor data for your primary station
    • It also makes available the URL of the latest camera on the Ecowitt cloud server via the new web tag <#EcowittCameraUrl>
    • You can use the tag in the URL field of HTTP Files to download the latest image
  • Adds a new station type of Davis Cloud
    • It grabs the data from the Davis WeatherLink cloud servers. The data is updated according to your subscription model
      • Pro+ = 1 minute updates
      • Pro = 5 minute updates
      • Free = 15 minute updates
  • Adds new Select-a-Period graphs to the dashboard interface.
    • Similar to the existing Select-a-Graph which only show recent 1 minute data, the new charts show data at your logging resolution, but you can select any start and end dates from your historic data.
    • Note: selecting a large date range can be quite slow as the data has to be read from the log files
  • You can now regenerate ALL missing NOAA reports from either the Month or Year NOAA screens
    • Note: Unlike the (Re)Generate button, the new option will not overwrite existing report files, it will only create missing ones
  • There is a new Latest Errors display in the dashboard - Utils | Latest Errors
    • By default it displays the last 50 Warnings and Errors encountered by CMX, if you are seeing too many warnings that are expected, you can opt to log only errors in Settings | Program Settings | Logging Options
  • The Cumulus settings can now be 'secured' with a username/password. NOTE: Because Cumulus does not use HTTPS these credentials can be snooped on the network, the security provided is limited.
    • This feature has required some minor changes to the Cumulus API: wsport.json, version.json, dateformat.txt, and csvseparator.txt have moved to a new path /api/info/
  • Add forwarders to Ecowitt Extra Sensors station type
  • Add an integrity check to the SQLite database on start-up

Changed

  • Internal changes to update the Visual Studio project files from the previous legacy version
  • Additional keep-alive headers added to PHP uploads
  • PHP upload now uses HTTP GET for data sizes < 7000 bytes
    • IMPORTANT: You must update the copy of upload.php on your web site with the latest version in this release
  • Dashboard gauges now follow the general dark theme
  • Adds UV-I to dashboard today/yesterday
  • PHP Upload now closes the connection before it errors - if the host server sends a maximum number of allowed requests per session

    CO2-24h
    CO2-pm2p5
    CO2-pm2p5-24h
    CO2-pm10
