=======================================================================i======
: Logger Maintenance [1000]
- replaced faulty solid-state relay
: Station Maintenance [0006]
- reload logger program: nwm-bbbbC
- supports switch of HC2S3 from SW12V to 12V
: Station Maintenance [1410]
- Switched Air Temp/RH sensor (HC2S3) to "continous" power
: Station Modernization [1030]
- Station upgraded with new logger and serveral new sensors.
- loaded logger program "nwm-bbbbC"
- Due to upgrade, station was offline for the following:
07/27/2015 (d=208) 1035 - 07/27/2015 (d=208) 1225
- the "live" data updates were able to resume at:
07/28/2015 (d=209) 1630
: System Maintenance [1403]
- moved data-collection to new LoggerNet server
- loaded logger program "bbaaC-nwm"
: Station Maintenance [0008]
- Loaded updated Logger Program BBAA-NWM. Logger now
set to collect on a 30-minute cycle from Apr - Sep.
: Station Maintenance [0002]
- Loaded updated MAWN Program: BBC-NWM (hourly
collection cycle even during the winter)
: Station Maintenance [0915]
- Repaired "Soil Moisture A". Station powered-off
between 9:10 - 9:13 to make repairs/connections.
: Station Maintenance [1330]
- Changed Daily Battery Voltage to 24-hour Observered
Minimum Voltage.
- Added Hourly Standard Deviation of Wind Direction
- Reactivate "live" updates
: Station Maintenace [1235]
- Loaded MAWN Program: BBC-NWM
: Station Maintenance [1035]
- Moved station to new location:
- Replaced old logger with newer CR1000
- Due to move, no data during following time period:
11/14/2011 (d=318) 1005 - 11/14/2011 (d=318) 1245
: Station Maintenance [0003]
- Loaded MAWN Program - AACF (60-minute collection cycle)
: Data Quality [1500]
- Recent collection/communication failure lead to loss of
data. Estimated "hourly" and "daily" air temperature
values were added into the MAWN database for the following
time period:
07/04/2011 (d=185) 1900 - 07/11/2011 (d=192) 1500
: Station Maintenance [0005]
- Loaded MAWN Program AACS (30-minute power/collection
cycle). Data-collection now controlled by LoggerNet
server on main campus of Michigan State University.
: Station Maintenance [2150]
- Converted communication with station to wireless broadband
due to recent failure of remote data-collection (PC208W
software).
: Data Removal (jtb)
- The Solar Radiation sensor was replaced in 2005. However,
for a period of time in May 2005, faulty Solar Radiation
data still existed in the MAWN database.
Solar Radiation for the following time period was removed
from the aarchived raw data file as well as removed from
the MAWN database:
05/06/05 (d=126) 2000 - 05/26/05 (d=146) 1400
: Station Maintenance: (bk)
- Repairs needed after recent thunderstorm:
- short haul modem was replaced
- power to datalogger was reset
- MAWN program (MAWN1B) was reloaded.
- Recent outage led to loss of data for the following
time period:
08/12/07 (day=224) 06:35 - 08/13/07 (day=225) 10:45
Although daily data for 08/12 was lost, an entry was added
to the database to report the 1.31" of rain that was manually
observed and recorded at the NWMHRS station.
