Summary: Fixed the problems of Ta&Rh and Pressure sensors

It’s a beautiful sunny day. Grasses looked still weak. No tree leaf yet. See cows at Vaira.

Vaira:
Everything worked well. I downloaded data.
Power status: 14.1, 13.8, 2.6.
Fixed the problems of Ta&Rh and Pressure sensors at Vaira: the multiplexer was making click sound when I got there, but the readings of Ta (13.3), Rh (280), and Pressure (66.1) were not correct. I unplugged the wires of pressure sensor, and suddenly no power anymore. I traced power wire all the way to the solar panel regulator box and found the broken fuss. After I replaced it with a similar fuss stored in a plastic bag in Tonzi tower computer enclosure, the readings of Ta (14.1), Rh (38), and Pressure (99.4) were reasonable.
