Rec No.DateLoc FromTitleLoc ToNotes
6876 2024-08-21 Vaira Forced Diffusion West Removed Lab none Removed from Vaira West location due to bad CO2 readings
5625 2021-12-02 Lab none Installed Vaira Forced Diffusion West Installed at Varia soil co2 west to replace the chamber that was removed last time for bad data.
5590 2021-11-23 Mayberry Forced Diffusion Boom Removed Lab none Removed from MB floating boom and brought back to the lab for testing. It underwent a lot of power cycles because of a short in the system and I want to test it before we deploy it again.
5402 2021-07-21 Lab none Installed Mayberry Forced Diffusion Boom Installed at Mayberry to replace sn FD20190027 because 27's numbers looked bad.
5198 2021-03-15 Factory none Returned Lab none Returned from Eosense for high temp start problem and noisy CO2 readings. It had a failed clock crystal causing start up issues at high temperature, it was given custom firmware to bypass the component. It was calibrated for CO2 concentration and CO2 flux
5197 2021-01-12 Lab none Shipped Factory none Sent to Eosense on RMA #210105 to check on its high temperature start up problem and some noise in the CO2 readings.
5045 2020-12-18 Bouldin Alfalfa Forced Diffusion A Removed Lab none Removed from Bouldin Alfalfa. This one has high temperature start up issues and was running on a relay to restart it every night. I removed the relay too but did not update the CR1000 program.
4830 2020-10-05 Lab none Installed Bouldin Alfalfa Forced Diffusion A Installed at Bouldin Alfalfa replacing sn FD20180048 that has low CO2 concentration readings. Also added a relay to restart this chamber at midnight to avoid high temperature start up problem.
4776 2020-09-23 Bouldin Corn Forced Diffusion A Removed Lab none Removed and brought back to the lab for testing because it would not connect in the field
4742 2020-09-10 Lab none Installed Bouldin Corn Forced Diffusion A Reinstalled after having been returned to the lab when it would not start due to being hot. (Note by Daphne 2021-08-11: I'm pretty sure this chamber was installed under the tower since we were waiting for our field to be harvested at this time).
4736 2020-09-01 Bouldin Corn Forced Diffusion A Removed Lab none Removed for testing in the lab because it was not responding in the field. Probably its high temperature non-start problem.
4628 2020-07-21 Lab none Installed Bouldin Corn Forced Diffusion A Installed in the normal density corn in front of the tower.
4522 2020-06-11 Lab none Tested Lab none This unit was non-responsive in the field. In the lab it started right up and I was able to collect and clear its data. These units have had an issue with not starting up when they are too hot though this is supposed to be fixed in newer units. Maybe this unit has the too-hot-to-start problem and this combined with the power outage observed at Bouldin Corn to knock it out. Maybe I'll ask Camilo to put it back on Monday.
4520 2020-06-09 Bouldin Corn Forced Diffusion A Removed Lab none Removed from the field because it was not responding. Cable tested okay. Maybe go too hot.
4511 2020-05-29 Lab none Installed Bouldin Corn Forced Diffusion A Reinstalled in normal density corn just in front of tower
4421 2020-04-17 Bouldin Corn Forced Diffusion A Removed Lab none Removed from BC and brought back to the lab because there will be tractor work on the field soon.
4323 2020-01-07 Lab none Installed Bouldin Corn Forced Diffusion A Reinstalled at Bouldin Corn after being removed when the field was flooded. Installed near previous location on 12 inch collars.
4732 2019-12-20 Bouldin Corn Forced Diffusion A Removed Lab none Removed from the field by Tyler due to being partially submerged by winter flooding.
4731 2019-11-14 Lab none Installed Bouldin Corn Forced Diffusion A Installed in the corn field near Tyler's northern soil gas ports
