This happens for stepType of "max" and "min". Unfortunately edition 1 does not support maximum and minimum in its "Time Range Indicator" table (Table 5). So we invented our own centre-specific combination to support this. There is no such issue in GRIB edition 2. | ||

its own centre-specific combination to support this. There is no such issue in GRIB edition 2.
To see this let's try setting the stepType key on a GRIB file whose centre is not ECMWF:

% grib_ls -p centre,edition my.grib1 centre edition consensus 1 # Set its stepType to max % ECCODES_DEBUG=-1 grib_set -s stepType=max my.grib1 max.grib1 ECCODES DEBUG grib_set_string stepType=|max| ECCODES DEBUG grib_set_long timeRangeIndicator=2 ECCODES DEBUG grib_set_long centre=98 % grib_ls -p centre,stepType max.grib1 centre stepType ecmf max |
Here we turn on the debugging to see what other keys get set when we change the step type. We can see that the centre got changed to "98" (=ecmwf). If we had used a different step type (e.g., "accum") this would not have happened.
