2016125113825 Tipping buckets using incorrect scaling factors

We discovered today the drainage tipping buckets on the East and Center slopes are using the wrong scaling factor for output data. This only effects scaled data.

Instrumentation panel damage - West P03

At approximately 9:30 on Nov. 21 an instrumentation panel (West-P03) was damaged along with a few sensor cables. Repairs underway.

PE102-075 flow meter added to Center Bay Leak collector

Added a Seametrics PE102-075 flow meter inline with the Leak tipping bucket in the Center Bay. 

Valid flow rates for this model are 0.2 - 20 GPM. 

Data for Leak tipping bucket between 11/15/2016 11:40 - 13:06 are not valid

Seepage clogged

Seepage clogged and fixed,flow rates down while fixing

Irrigation valve actuator swap 2016117093157

On Nov. 6, 2016 from about 10:45 PM - 11:30 PM Aaron and Michael performed work on the electric actuators controlling/monitoring LEO irrigation. 

Several of the actuators were not responding (No diagnostics have been performed), so we swapped around actuators such that each bay now should have a functional actuator on both the MULTI1 and MULTI2 circuit. 

Due to this change several irrigation circuits will display as "in transition" because they have been physically removed / electrically disconnected.

SDI-12 sensors removed

Today several more SDI-12 sensors were removed from the bus due to large power draw in:
East bay zones P & D
Center bay zone K

LEO-C_4_0_2_HMP60 malfunction

The HMP60 in the center bay, mast 4,0 position 2 appears to be incorrectly reporting RH. Output signal has been verified and matches recorded value.

LEO SDI-12 system powered on for cooling experiment

The SDI-12 systems in all three bays were powered on to support an air flow / cooling experiment. VWC is required for the surface heat flux computation.

LEO Sampling Interval Change

July 24, 2016
The sampling interval for most LEO sensors, excluding 5TM, MPS-2, and CS451, has been set to 1 minute for a series of above slope air flow experiments. Since there is no anticipated irrigation I have decided to leave the SDI-12 sensors (listed above) at the standard 15 minute logging interval.

Mini LEO data logger software update 2016621030609

At approximately 15:00 on Wednesday, June 21 the LEO Mini data logger software was updated and the logger was restarted.
This update is intended to address an issue with loss of precision of the large counter & volume values of the tipping bucket. The 5-digit level of precision has been removed for all double precision data types within the logging software.
