Summary: Move rain bucket away from radiometers, laptop crashed twice - reset, todo list for site upgrade
| When: Fri, 13Jan04, JD-13 Where: Tonzi/Vaira Ranches Who: Ted Hehn Weather Overcast/fog, cool. Vaira Ranch: Move precip gage from above radiation sensors to same level to reduce reflection Tripod mast still above rad sensors and giving reflections into rad sensors – especially in afternoon Vaira 8 panels and 12 batts Laptop (Dilbert) still has screen failure until Gillsonic.exe graphics stopped Relay MUX channel 11 H1 red L1 Blue hi2 white lo2 yellow, ch 12 Hi1 white lo1 black, hi2 brn lo2 gn, Prt in CR10 x diff 5 hi=yl lo=gn, red to ½ bridge with dif ch 4 hi org lo red On MUX ch 10 hi ok lo is stripped and not used Laptop crashed – reset twice and it functions correctly both times Misc Notes - reprog BIOS or change out PC at Vaira - Clean lab for Ignacio’ visit on Jan 19 - Build another PC enclosure box for Vaira, paint and insulate mount fan for easy replacement so screws aren’t covered by vent cover - Replace power wire to T&RH fan it loads down the system upon startup at Vaira and on Tower - Get regulator box for Vaira – other one has fire damage- soot, etc - Brush paint fiber glass enclosures - Order CD markers - Call Licor and get most recent update for LI7500 and install on all IRGAs - - Replace reflective covers on enclosures - Laptop plastic shelf at tower with ¼ in thick plexi glass - Place Vaira precip on it own mast - Place Vaira 23x & 10x on mast away from radiation tropod - Cut off vaira tripod mast above rad sensors - When loading new OS on Dennis’ gateway do not include MS updates or either net card software – keep it minimized - Cut of Vaira tripod mast - Anti seize compound on all fencer connections - Place bullseye level in solder iron box - Send sonic to Gill for spec test - Check level on sonic at Vaira - Post log in CO2 profile indicating when filters have been changed it must be in a visible place - -Begin planning and prep to move Vaira site to another nearby location build swivel boom arm for netrad and place soil heat flux outside of enclosure -Bring out Hobbs sticker that says “hobbs†-Repair 3†conduit on Tower -Adjust CO2 profile data logger enclosure so water doesn’t pool in door -Install 4 more batteries at Floor system -Get all programs uploaded from all data loggers and then modify all watchdog loggers to output batt volts and system volts -Upload data from floor logger and determine how long before data is overwritten -Buy new battery for phone - Moving precip gage on tower will require new mount bracket - In future paint varnish on T&RH fan power leads on circuit board to stop galvanic action - Modify New Rad shield to hold fan and replace one on tower and make it like the rest -Do calibration on radiation sensors for Ameraflux audit by March - Temp onT&RH too -Replace rad boom arm at Vaira - Buy 20Gbyte HDD for laptop -Buy springs & Replace fence wire at Vaira, spring loaded with wire soldered to springs/twist up wire in lab -Order Nitrogen and Co2 340 & 450ppm -Order 2 md9 from Campbell and a Multiplexer for vaira -Move Wind speed profile inside canopy -Move 4way radiometer to swivel boom arm -Install tower rad swivel boom arm -Set zero/span on LI800 and train Liukang on the procedure -Sticker for trace charge controller indicating what the status is for the blinking lights -Get cyl no from Tonzi for all cylinders -Update site visit task list highlight the ones Ted must perform |
