Summary: Fixed Phenocam cable, condensation in BF3, removed Peltier SHF 1 due to broken wire.

Vaira
2016-03-23

I arrived about 9am with Siyan. It was warm, clear and sunny. Everything is very green. There are puddles in the road and the water hole is full.

I tested the Phenocam with the laptop and it is fine – must be the cable. I put a new connector on the old cable for the old D-link web cam. This worked. The Raspberry Pi clock is still on UTC, I need to learn how to set the time zone. The camera is sn 0030F4D0A168.

There was a little condensation in the BF3. Need to add new desiccant next time.

I removed Peltier SHF plate one sn P01. It has a broken wire again.

I cleaned the radiation sensors. The tipping bucket lost its screen, but Siyan found it as it was reinstalled.
