Summary: Communication between laptop & data logger stopped at the floor site, pc not functioning properly.

Tonzi Ranch: Arrived at 10:00, clear sky and sunny, air temperature is
around 25 deg C. Oak tree leaves just popped out, they are about the finger
nail size. The tower looks cool, I climbed to the top, feel pretty good.
Check CR23x at the tower site, chann01-07 OK, chann08, battery vol.
reading 13.65 V
check 10x chann 01-27 OK
photovoltaic controller reading 14.4 V, 0.3 array current and 0.0
load current.
At the floor site. photovoltaic controller reading; 12.5 V, 2.0
array current and 1.9 load current. Solar panel was shaded about 70% by the
trees at east side.
Open the laptop, the sonic program was running. Could not find the
*.raw file, even after search the whole C: driver. I only got the ERR, FLX
and NRT files. The communication between laptop and all the data logger was
stopped around 8:30 am D083 (March 24). Check the coax cable from tower to
Nancy's boxes, no damage by cows.
Tried to write some notes on the computer (Tonzi notes floor.doc),
but some of keys (2, w, s, x) on the keyboard were not working
properly. So I gave up.
finished shortly after 11:15 am

However, there are still some problems for the floor system. See the
attached file File89.txt, That is all the data files on the laptop.
1. No *.raw file, I only got *.err, *.flx, and *. nrt files for
each day up to today.
2. After March 24 midnight, no communication between laptop and all
the data logger. So we need download manually early next week. I don't know
Nancy's two cr10x can hold how many more day's data ?
I tried to write some note on the file Tonzi notes floor.doc, but
some of keys , including 2 w, s, x, on the keyboard are not working.
I'll see you tomorrow.
