Web cam not operational. Picture files were taken but showed color test pattern. Delete all picture files. Able to ping web cam but no pictures visible on WebCam software or using Internet Explorer.

CO2 profile system not operational. Pump failure immediately after my last visit. Tapping on pump starts the motor at about half speed. Tap a little harder and pump comes to full speed. Remove old pump purchased July, 2004, installed 26Feb05 and removed 19Jul05. Install new pump received August 2003, installed 18Jul05.

Run 429 ppm span gas - LI820 shows 422
Run Nitrogen = -4.5

Re zero/span profile system with 429 ppm transfer standard.
Zero = 0.8; Span = 430.

Start response curves on Tower co2 profile system using Scott-Marin reference standards.
Use CPTST4E.CSI to generate curves.

Get highly unusual results and will need to plot graphics to interpret the results.

8:07 Run 421 reference std = 410-412 ppm

08:26 Run 402 ppm reference std = 408-409 ppm

08:39 Run 344 Ref Std = 365ppm

Able to ping WebCam but no pictures visible. Ascend tower and find power plug to webcam was almost fully disengaged from receptacle. Reinstall plug and webcam once again functions.
