6.5.8.2 Displaying METAR Data in the Stationless

Mode

Virtual Weather Station can be configured to gather data

from a METAR station, and display this data. VWS creates

a csv file from the METAR data. To specify the METAR

data, select the Use METAR file checkbox and select the

METAR File Location button to browse to the csv file

location.

6.5.8.3 File Timer Access

Set the file timer access to the rate at which the host

computer updates the csv file. For example, METAR data

updates may occur once per hour. Continuous file access,

particularly across a network will degrade the performance

of the remote computer.

6.6 General Program Settings

Menu Shortcut: Settings uu Program Settings

6.6.1 Start Program Hidden

The program can be set to start hidden when the computer

starts. To view the hidden program, double click on the

icon in the taskbar.

6.6.2 Reboot Schedule

For remote monitoring applications, it is sometimes

advantageous to automatically reboot periodically to keep

the program resources fresh.

6.6.3 Hide Toolbar

Select this option to hide the toolbar and status bar. This

will increase the display viewing area.

6.6.4 Quit Program Prompt

Prompts the user prior to terminating the program.

6.6.5 CPU Resources

You can adjust the CPU resources VWS uses to run. The

high setting will increase the performance of VWS but may

decrease the performance of other programs. The low

setting will decrease the performance of VWS but increase

the performance of other programs.

If VWS “locks up”, this may be due to a lack of resources.

Try increasing the CPU resources.
