Summary: Working on power systems, new Floor program, new Vaira met program

11 Oct 01

Tonzi floor flux system

- install power lead from PV batts to cr10x in sonic enclosure
(PCWATCHDOG)
- Vbatts=12.15
- V10x= 11.99 Vp10=11.88

Tonzi tower

- Vbatts= 12.4
- Vpc enclosure= 11.4
-V23x=11.0 Vp10=10.62
-V10x=11.0 Vp10=10.97

install new program in Tonzi floor Met 23x - program powers up(5
sec)/measures soil moisture probes only once every 15 minutes

output for the floor met 23x is:

1 121
2 Day
3 Hour_Minute
4 panel_t C
5 bat_v Volt
6 SoilM_1 millivolt
7 SoilM_2 "
8 SoilM_3 "
9 SoilM_4 "
10 SoilM_5 "
11 SoilM_6 "
12 SoilM_7 "
13 q_line "

Note: 1 volt drop between the RV batteries and the tower PC enclosure
Note: voltage measured at data logger with meter shows 11.0 and using the P10
command on the CR23x shows 10.6 volt - this indicates a problem with
the
23x

Vaira

install new program in Vaira Met 10x - program powers up(5 sec)/measures
soil moisture probes only once every 15 minutes

Vbatts= 13.6
V10x= 13.5 Vp10= 13.5
V23x= 13.46 Vp10= 13.18
Vpcenclosure= 13.38

Install H brackets on tower top and bottom for life line installation

Vaira CR10x output

Note: the CR23x data loggers at both sites fail to accurately measure the
input voltage using the command code P10. They measure about 0.4-0.5 volts
too low. This will need be investigated further.
