hi
depends
on weather station type:
if you have a solar sensor (if so then you can set the icons to be updated by the solar data, in the solar setup)
or you can set the icon to be updated by the conditions in a downloaded metar you have set in the control panel, ftp/internet setup…and then set to use that in the summary image and icon setup

Brian:Is there a posting in any of the forums that gives a detailed instructions for using metar files as the data base for main screen display icons?

the new (1 work in progress) help file has some information:
http://www.weather-display.com/WDHELP.doc
and the online help has some information:
http://www.tokaanuskihire.co.nz/wdhelp/usemetar.shtml

also note that there is a separate list for times for the metar download

I’m downloading metar files, but the icon in the main display is not changing? I’ve have files in downloaded metar and I have metar images also. I belive I have followed all the instructions… I’m sure it’s somthing that I’m missing :roll:
