Vaira
2012-05-04

I arrived about 9:30 with Siyan and her visitors from China. It was cool and overcast with little wind, but the overcast was breaking up. The water hole is still full and the first puddle on the road still has water but the second puddle was dry. I pulled some weeds around the solar panels and the ground was still wet. There was dew on the grass. Seems like more clover this year.

When we arrived the computer seemed to be having problems. The screen would not come up and it seemed it was trying to reboot. The solar power was good: 12.6V, 14.7A solar, 4.0A load. I ended up disconnecting the internal fan that was blowing at full speed to try to hear if the hard drive was running. After disconnecting the fan the computer seemed to run fine. Also, there didn’t seem to be any data lost.

I swapped the wires for the CM3 incoming sensor on the CNR1 that were in backwards.

I downloaded data from the soil co2 data logger.
