Rec No.DateLoc FromTitleLoc ToNotes
6162 2023-01-06 Lab none Installed Mayberry Camera Redeployed at Mayberry on the same spot, attached to the wooden post on the southeast corner of the scaffolding.
6163 2023-01-04 Lab none Tested Lab none Plugged in in the lab but the picam could not boot all the way. The microSD card is probably busted from flickering power at the end of December. Joe put in a new microSD card and loaded the fwb code (r=1.8, b=1.8). We had some trouble getting the RTC recognized by the picam, but in the end it worked with a brand-new RTC and brand-new coin cell battery. Ran overnight in the lab and it seems fine.
6151 2023-01-03 Mayberry Camera Removed Lab none Removed from the Mayberry tower because its web server was not booting. Brought back to the lab for further testing.
5622 2021-12-01 Lab none Installed Mayberry none Installed on the wooden 4x4 on the southeast corner of the scaffolding and looking west.
5608 2021-11-04 Mayberry Removed Lab none Removed from MB and brought back to the lab for repair. It wouldn't turn on, probably because of all the repeated power cycling. I think it ended up being a bad/corrupted microSD card. I set up the camera with a fresh microSD card.
5455 2021-09-15 Lab none Installed Mayberry none Installed at MB on the wooden post next to the Stardot camera to continue the camera intercomparison. Joe has updated the firmware so the camera skips nighttime photos and takes a concurrent photo with fixed white balance (and maybe other improvements?)
5454 2021-08-04 Mayberry Removed Lab none Removed from MB during a pause in the camera intercomparison. We plan to reinstall the camera after updating the firmware to skip nighttime photos.
5253 2021-04-27 Lab none Installed Mayberry Camera Swapped in a regular camera lens and installed on NW scaffolding corner, pointing ~west. This will be an intercomparison with the Canon camera for a while since some Canon images have been underexposed.
4516 2020-06-05 Lab none Adjusted Lab none Replaced Raspberry Pi Camera v2 camera lens with fisheye camera lens
