Started working through the burn-in punch list, with an emphasis on the sites that have been down...
s6:
- found that the bank2 fuse (1A) was blown, cutting off power to the FTDI board, USB devices, and of course the sensors. Replaced with a 2A fuse.
- We didn't do anything special to the radiometer, and assume that the fuse issue was related to the NR01 outage in the data matrix.
s7:
- found no manfrotto and thus radiometer. Installed the manfrotto, and had a radiometer, but not a boom or top plate, so couldn't finish the install.
- Not sure what we did that would have brought up the soils – the mote and sensors were already installed.
s8:
- again, the bank2 fuse was thee culprit, and replaced with 2A.
- Yes, a strange install close to trees and a steep drop to the north. I had thought this might have been installed a bit higher on the south side of the road, but not going to change now!
- Also found that the modem worked better outside the box than inside, despite a lot of towers being pretty close. Chose to install an external omni antenna, which perked up the cell signal.
- Also, as with s15 yesterday, had to uncomment the RawSampleOutputStream on the station to get data flowing to barolo.
- I think Isabel also enabled the 4-hour watchdog.
