Immediate logging (warning: increased flash wear)

Post by nikos777 »

Hello,

What's exactly the "immediate logging (warning: increased flash wear)" case in the Settings menu of Meteohub ?

I find any informations about it in the documentation.

Is-it a good things with a SheevaPlug ?

Thanks.

This was introduced in 4.5f:

Allows immediate storing of logged data to disk. This should only be used to allow WD to better read data via Meteohub's http data logging protocol. Disadvantage is, that it brings significant more wear to flash storage.

Normally you should NOT use it; instead of caching data and only writing it on a regular basis, this option will force meteohub to write data directly to flash every time data is processed.
