I hacked on the installation until it worked correctly during network outage,
now leaving blank gaps in the graphs during network outage, versus all values
dropping to zero and messing up the averages.
I altered the cgi for English versus Metric units, and scaling the
barometric pressure readings for English units in Inches of Mercury. As it was,
pressure reading graphs ranged from 0 to 40 in.Hg, whereas global historical
records indicate 25.6 to 32.01 as the practical range, so I rescaled as 25 to
32,
which displays as 20 to 40, doubling the sensitivity of the graph. Hopefully
something in my tbz2 file will help the developers, though I may have
hacked something wrong in the process, at least it works now.
The result:
