*rough hobo procedure:

*Download data:
*1.Use Toughbook with the HOBO Base Station and the coupler 2B to download data. The logger only fits in there in one orientation and a green light will turn on when device is attached and communicating with laptop.
*2.OPen onset HOBOware software.
*3. READOUT data. Do not need to stop logging if you are going to put the instrument back in the river. SAVE DATA with Serial Number, River Name, and DATE of download in the file name.
*4. It will read out the data and then you can plot up the data for a quick look by pressing plot. You can save this project but SAVE DATA with Serial Number, River Name, and DATE of download in the file name.
NOTE THE TIME OFFSET FROM GMC. IT SHOULD BE ON STANDARD TIME (-9). If not you can change it here, or manually later.
*5.Use Barometric Pressure Compensation because the HOBO data is absolute pressure (not gauge pressure like the vented/cable PTs attached to the dataloggers). Create file (use my template) and it needs to be tab separated and .txt file extension. Pick a reference water level measurement (m above datum) and set the date/time and units of measurement (should be m above arbitrary datum).

*2 trimble or white poles for mounting Novatel GPSs
*2 radio antennaes
*misc. hose clamps for mounting

Bring your own base battery supply and tripod for base. Also good to have some spare brass GPS adaptor fittings to go into trimble pole and base of GPS.

You may use the Base box during low flow summer operations for RTK with the mini orange bluetooth GPS boxes (that go on Streampro Triamaran or Kayak) but please return set up to its appropriate location when finished. Note: when using base box during summer low flow operations, just unplug the freewave radio from the null modem cable and then plug in the bluetooth RTK base SD1000 radio into the null modem cable.

Here is an inventory of what you would need in the mini orange bluetooth GPS box for kayak or trimaran setup:
*mini orange box, waterproofed
*duct seal or other waterproofing material
*GPS cable, that comes out of the box
*3 SENA Parani SD1000s for RTK communication of GPS data
*misc. bluetooth antennaes
*battery pack w/ spare batteries
*spare brass fitting for GPS
*separate pelican case bluetooth kit w/ UD100 bluetooth radio for laptop, misc. antennaes, 2+ bluetooth SD1000 battery chargers, spare SD1000, spare battery pack
*Note: If using the kayak, the kayak bag should have the streampro kayak mount and should also have a GPS pole for the kayak inside bag.
*Note: If using trimaran, be sure to have a way to mount GPS to trimaran

Plant Cams

2013-06-18T19:48:42Z

137.229.78.185:

Camera operations:

Currently, we have to two types of cameras: TimelapseCam 8.0 (left photo) and Plant Cam (right photo) (Notes by Jordi Cristobal).

In both cases, however, the way to operate them is the same.
Retrieving the SD card
1. The camera will be probably in AUTO mode when you are going to collect the SD card. If not, probably the camera did not take any picture.

2. In order to collect the card, first, you should TURN OFF the camera. To do that, press the power status button until the display is off. If this does not happen the first time, do it again until the display is off. When this happens, the camera let will stop blinking (unfortunately, not always).

3. Set the dial into SETUP mode.

4. Collect the card.

5. Put a new card. IMPORTANT: we have noticed that the Plant Cam green models (right picture), sometimes work with 16Gb cards and sometimes not. So, I would suggest putting a 8Gb card in the green models. With an 8Gb card, you can collect around 7000 high-quality photos, almost 146 days, taking photos every 30 min.

6. Turn on the camera pressing the power button. The display will be then on.

7. Set the dial into AUTO mode. In a few seconds, the camera will take a photo. Something similar to “CAPTURING PHOTO” will appear on the display. If this does not happen repeat the whole procedure. You will notice that the camera has taken a photo because it will appear on the display “0001/7000” (see photo below).

Troubleshooting:

1. SD card file format: I suggest formatting the SD card in FAT 32 file system (option usually used by default in most Windows computer). Doing this, will allow reading the SD card directly with your computer, if you have a card reader.

2. If the card reader does not work properly and you do not have a card reader built-in in your computer, you can use a regular photo GPS-camera to copy the data to your computer. Remember to bring the appropriate USB camera cable.

3. At this photo rate (30 min), the battery camera will last at least one month or more in warmer temperatures. The batteries will only last a few weeks at temperatures below freezing. What it is IMPORTANT is to ensure the battery status on the display, i.e. “B: 99%”. In any case, it is worth to replace the batteries with lithium AA on every trip.

5. Put a new card. IMPORTANT: we have noticed that the Plant Cam green models (right picture), sometimes work with 16Gb cards and sometimes not. So, I would suggest putting a 8Gb card in the green models. With an 8Gb card, you can collect around 7000 high-quality photos, almost 146 days, taking photos every 30 min.

6. Turn on the camera pressing the power button. The display will be then on.

8. Set the dial into AUTO mode. In a few seconds, the camera will take a photo. Something similar to “CAPTURING PHOTO” will appear on the display. If this does not happen repeat the whole procedure. You will notice that the camera has taken a photo because it will appear on the display “0001/7000” (see photo below).

Troubleshooting:

1. SD card file format: I suggest formatting the SD card in FAT 32 file system (option usually used by default in most Windows computer). Doing this, will allow reading the SD card directly with your computer, if you have a card reader.

2. If the card reader does not work properly and you do not have a card reader built-in in your computer, you can use a regular photo GPS-camera to copy the data to your computer. Remember to bring the appropriate USB camera cable.

3. At this photo rate (30 min), the battery camera will last around one month or more in warmer temperatures. The batteries will only last a few weeks at temperatures below freezing. What it is IMPORTANT is to ensure the battery status on the display, i.e. “B: 99%”. In any case, it is worth to replace the batteries with lithium AA on every trip.

Camera operations:

Currently, we have to two types of cameras: TimelapseCam 8.0 (left photo) and Plant Cam (right photo).

In both cases, however, the way to operate them is the same.
Retrieving the SD card
1. The camera will be probably in AUTO mode when you are going to collect the SD card. If not, probably the camera did not take any picture.

2. In order to collect the card, first, you should TURN OFF the camera. To do that, press the power status button until the display is off. If this does not happen the first time, do it again until the display is off. When this happens, the camera let will stop blinking (unfortunately, not always).

3. Set the dial into SETUP mode.

4. Collect the card.

Came across a WMO document. They suggest minimum standard soil temperature profile depths:
5cm, 10cm, 20cm, 50cm, and 100cm below ground surface and the surface should be similar for an area of 75cm^2 above the profile. WMO uses a bare ground standard which isn't really applicable but the rest of the information seems useful.

Came across a WMO document. They suggest minimum standard soil temperature profile depths:
5cm, 10cm, 20cm, 50cm, and 100cm below ground surface and the surface should be similar for an area of 75cm^2 above the profile. WMO uses a bare ground standard which isn't really applicable but the rest of the information seems useful.

Bluetooth Communiciations

2013-05-14T21:51:12Z

137.229.78.185:

Bluetooth doesn't have the range that the freewave radios have.

== Air Cable Bluetooth ==

We have two air cable bluetooth radios that I have been using for the Rio Grande ADCP setup. I also have two external 8.5 dbi omni-directional antennaes to go with them. I have been using them on the kayak to send back GPS and ADCP data to a laptop w/ bluetooth on shore. They are quite fidgety and lose connection often. I am not a big fan of the one labeled "GPS". Connection is lost frequently. NOTE: THESE HAVE BEEN DISCONTINUED -- DO NOT USE.

== Sena Parani SD1000 Bluetooth ==

I have a parani sd1000 bluetooth radio that seems promising. I have a 3, dbi, 5 dbi dipole antennae and a 9dbi patch (directional antennae) for use with this. This can be used in the toughbook serial port to boost the toughbook signal (instead of using the internal toughbook class 2 bluetooth w/ only a 30 ft range). This one seems to have good communication when attached to the laptop for use with the streampro.

I also use this one to send the GPS data on the kayak or tethered streampro, back to the laptop. I usually just use "mode 3" discoverable (where any bt device can discover it). I set the baud rate on this to 38.4K or higher.

The Parani SD1000 has "hardware flow control" setting. This should probably be turned on.

== Sena UD100 Bluetooth ==

This is a USB bluetooth. We can use this for laptops that don't have internal bluetooths (like the big toughbook) or we can use it as a boost for the mini tough book, instead of using the internal toughbook bluetooth. It has a 3, 5 dbi, or 9 dbi patch antennae. The 9 dbi patch antennae has worked very well on large distances. The 5 dbi one only works to about 250 ft before it loses comms with the toughbook. I tested this one with the streampro. Note that this needs to be secured into a USB port and can be bumped easily in the field, losing the connection, and the newer models are hard to get into the USB ports on the toughbook, you really have to shove them in to get them to work. The mini-toughbook USB ports are not so great for plugging in this bluetooth radio, but it seems to work really good. If we can get it better secured in the mini-toughbook, or use a USB extension cable it may work better. I am sure it will work fine in regular laptops.

Update 5/8/2013 We purchased some new UD100 bluetooth radios (red -- you put them in the USB port). Well they use a new software called "Blue SOleil". I installed the new BlueSoleil software on the toughbooks. The older models use the Toshiba Bluetooth Stack software. You can tell which UD100 uses which software by looking on the UD100 near the searial number. It will either say Toshiba or Bluesoleil.

To turn on the appropriate software (using a toughbook), be sure the have the wireless switch off or else the lightning bolt on the task bar set to Bluetooth Power OFF (to turn off the internal toughbook bluetooth, which has insufficient range for ADCP measurements).

Then determine which software you need to use (look near S/N on UD100). The Toshiba Bluetooth stack software has the bluetooth icon in blue/red on the task bar. The Blue Soleil software has a blue/white icon. Then you can right click on the icon to get the UD100 going (i.e. enable bluetooth or turn bluetooth on). Once you get the toughbook, take a look.

Then you will need to establish a connection to the device (i.e. RDI streampro, or perhaps another Parani SD1000 radio that is hooked up to the GPS).

Attached is the manual for the Blue Soleil.

http://www.sena.com/download/manual/manual_parani_ud100_B-v2.0.1.pdf

== Mini Toughbook Internal Bluetooth ==

The mini toughbook has an internal bluetooth that only works up to 30 ft w/ the streampro. With the Rio Grande ADCP and the GPS bluetooth radios, we can add a better antennae to those radios and extend the range to over 150 m. I suggest not using the internal mini toughbook internal bluetooth, but instead use the Parani / Sena USB bluetooth external radio.

== General Bluetooth notes ==
*Baud rates should be set to what the instrument is set up at or higher. For example, the ADCPs should have a baud rate of 115.2k and so the radio should also be set to that baud rate. The GPSs are running at 38.4K baud, so you should set up the radio (Parni SD1000) to run at that or higher so we make sure we are tranmitting that data frequently enough.
*The laptop bluetooth software will assign a COM port to data coming in via bluetooth. For example, on one of the mini-toughbooks, the streampro adcp com port when data comes through bluetooth is COM40, the rio grande adcp with bluetooth is COM42, and the GPS with bluetooth is COM43. This won't be the same for all laptops, you may have to play around with it to figure out what is what. The bluesoleil and toshiba software might have a properties button where once you set up the connection between the UD100 and the streampro or Parani SD1000 w/ GPS you might be able to click on an icon and get the assigned COM port. Then you would know what COM# to set up in Winriver II.
*If you use the Parani in the laptop serial port to communicate with the Streampro or toughbook (to increase the range, instead of using the internal bluetooth or UD100 in the USB port) data will come in through COM1.
*Keep an eye on "lost ensembles" and "no data" in Winriver. It may not be obvious that you lost comms with the bluetooth, so be aware. You may have to reconnect if you lose comms and start the msmt over.

== SETUP OF RTK GPS with STREAMPRO using PARANI/SENA BLUETOOTH RADIOS ==
Cheat Sheet for Streampro / Bluetooth Set ups

Required Items for RTK GPS with Streampro

1. Streampro

2. Toughbook w/ UD100 Sena external Bluetooth radio + antennae (patch 9dbi or omni 5dbi)

a. BlueSoleil Software (new UD100) or b. Toshiba Stack software (old UD100)

b. Winriver II and hyperterminal for troubleshooting

3. Parani SD1000 (fully charged battery lasts 10+ hours) TURN OFF + antennae (omni 5dbi)

4. GPS pair (Rover an Boat) and wiring harness cable w/ batteries for base and rover, tripod for base

5. Small orange case to house and protect the radio and battery pack on the boat or trimaran, putty to seal any holes in orange box

Setup

1. Set up base station on a tripod. Plug in Base GPS to cable. Plug in power to GPS. Plug “Base Radio J3 115K’ w/ null modem into J3 cable and turn on Bluetooth radio “on” switch. Remember to turn off Bluetooth radio and unplug GPS when finished w/ the measurement.

2. Set up Boat. This will have 2 radios, one to receive corrections from the base and one to send the GPS data back to the laptop on shore. Open orange box and connect the “Boat Radio J2 38.4K” w/ null modem into the J2 cable and connect an antennae. Plug “Base Radio J3 115K’ w/ null modem into J3 cable, connect the antennae, and turn on both Bluetooth radio “on” switch. Plug in the power on the GPS cable. Note the antennae cable and two antennaes will have to fit through the hole. Fill the hole (and any other holes) with putty to waterproof it. Attach the GPS to the aluminum plate and attach the plate to the Streampro blue comm/power box). Plug in the GPS to the cable.

Laptop Setup:

1. Turn on the Streampro. Turn off the wireless switch on the Toughbook. Plug in the Sena UD100 w/ a 9dbi patch antennae for 1km communications to the boat. Open the software (Blue Soleil or Toshiba Stack) and turn on the Bluetooth. Note that on the task bar, the red/blu icon is for Toshiba and the blu/white icon is for Bluesoleil. The Bluetooth will search for any Bluetooth devices. You will want to connect only to the boat GPS Parani SD1000 and the RDI SPRro S/N. Note, you may have to test this (by turning some off) to find out which Parani SD1000 you are communicating with because there are 3. Once connected, note the COM port that the Toughbook assigned to each device. Then hook up to hyperterminal (with the appropriate com port as assigned by the laptop) to test the connection with the boat GPS radio and the laptop and make sure you either get WAAS (9) or RTK (5). You may want to keep the Toshiba or BlueSoleil open to check every so often that you still have comms w/ the parani SD1000 GPS radio and the streampro.

2. Start Winriver II and “configure peripherals”. Set up GPS and configure the appropriate com port as assigned by the Toughbook and the correct baud rate 38.4K. Test Port in winriver to ensure it is working and you have RTK or WAAS. Configure ADCP by setting the appropriate COM port and baud rate of 115K and test the port to ensure you have communications with ADCP.

3. Set up file in Configuration Wizard. Remember to select “Ext. GPS”.

Sediment Sampling Procedures

2013-05-13T19:15:35Z

137.229.78.185:

===Recording Bottles in Field Book===
-Each depth-integrated sample and Isco sample will be collected or transferred into a quart sized plastic sampling container. Each bottle should be marked with a number. Record the information about each bottle in your field book as follows:

Bottle Date Time Collection Instrument Isco # (if applicable)

22 5/25/2013 15:00 ADT Isco 1

531 5/26/2013 12:42 ADT Depth-Integrated

If the bottle is from an Isco please mark which Isco (there may be 2 Iscos at each site). Each Isco should have a number on it (if not, please mark the Iscos #1 and #2). In your field book draw a description of which Isco is where, and describe the location of the intake (i.e. on the bed, 15 cm off the bed). For the depth-integrated samples please describe where in the river cross-section the sampling was done, as well as an approximate depth of the sampling location.

===Depth-Integrated Sampling===
*Depth integrated samples should be taken whenever a discharge measurement is done.
*Two or three depth-integrated samples should be taken at a time.
*Take samples in the thalweg of the channel, and note in your field book where in the cross-section the samples are from.
*To take a sample, lower the sampler at a constant rate until it hits the bottom of the channel, then bring up at a constant rate. The nozzle with the largest opening usually is appropriate.
*If the bottle is completely full it is not a valid sample, dump out and retry lowering and raising the sampler faster.
*If the bottle is less than 1/3 full, dump out and retry lower and raising the sampler slower.

===Isco Sampling===
*Samples will be taken 4 times/day during spring breakup (at 03:00, 09:00, 15:00, 21:00). When you leave the site for the spring, please program the Isco to take one sample every other day at 15:00 if there are 2 Iscos (I.e. each Isco takes a sample every 48 hours, staggered so that there is one sample per day). Also please make sure that there are concurrent samples from both the Iscos before leaving the site.
*During breakup the Isco hose will not be able to be anchored to rebar, and so will have to lay on the bed. Please note where the Isco hose is, and when it gets moved. Before leaving for the spring, the Isco intake should be anchored to rebar as far into the channel as possible, approximately 6” off the river bed.
*Take a “manual sample” (there is a button on the Iscos for this) when a depth-integrated sample is taken. If you later cannot remember which bottle in the Isco corresponds to the program and which to the manual sample, the “results” will read out each bottle number’s date & time.
*The Isco can pump a maximum of 99 feet in distance and 20 feet in vertical head.
*During the very beginning of breakup when the Isco hose cannot be put in the water, please try to get grab samples multiple times a day. Mark these in your field book as “grab” for the collection instrument.

TO CONFIGURE SAMPLER:
*Select ENTER PROGRAM
*Select CONFIGURE
*Set Cock to correct time and date (using AST)
*Bottles and Sizes → Portable → 24 Bottles → Bottle volume is 1000 ml
*Suction line is 3/8 inch
*Suction line is vinyl
*Suction line length is X ft (every time you change the length of the suction line, you will need to configure this)
*Liquid Detector → Enable (if the Isco does not seem to be able to sample the correct volume, you may try turning off the liquid detector)
*0 Rinse cycles
*Enter head manually → Again you can try saying no and allowing the liquid detector to determine sample volume, but this may not work with the long hoses and vertical heads

we will be trying this year
*Retry up to 1 times when sampling
*Programming mode → Basic
*Then hit enter a whole bunch of times and it will test the Isco and bring you back to the main menu...
*Reintialize? → NO

TO ENTER A PROGRAM:
*Select ENTER PROGRAM
*Select PROGRAM
*Select TIME
*Sample every 6 or 48 hours
*Multiplex Samples: NO
*Sample volumes of 700 ml
*Enter start time: YES
*Start time of 15:00, with the samplers offset by 1 day
*Select MANUAL SAMPLE on both samplers at the same time, remove these samples from the sampler after pumping
*Select START SAMPLING
*Start Sampling at Bottle 1

AFTER ENTERING THE PROGRAM YOU MUST HIT START SAMPLING, OTHERWISE THE ISCO REMAINS IN A STANDBY STATE.

TO EMPTY SAMPLER:
*Stop sampling if the sampler is still running
*Select DISPLAY STATUS
*Select RESULTS
*Note the time and date of the first bottle, each sample should subsequently be 48 hours after this during the summer. Also check the time and date of the second bottle in each sampler, as many of the Iscos have a manual sample in the first bottle and the preprogrammed samples starting in bottle two.

*Two or three depth-integrated samples should be taken at a time.
*Take samples in the thalweg of the channel, and note in your field book where in the cross-section the samples are from.
*To take a sample, lower the sampler at a constant rate until it hits the bottom of the channel, then bring up at a constant rate. The nozzle with the largest opening usually is appropriate.
*If the bottle is completely full it is not a valid sample, dump out and retry lowering and raising the sampler faster.
*If the bottle is less than 1/3 full, dump out and retry lower and raising the sampler slower.

===Isco Sampling===
*Samples will be taken 4 times/day during spring breakup (at 03:00, 09:00, 15:00, 21:00). When you leave the site for the spring, please program the Isco to take one sample every other day at 15:00 if there are 2 Iscos (I.e. each Isco takes a sample every 48 hours, staggered so that there is one sample per day). Also please make sure that there are concurrent samples from both the Iscos before leaving the site.
*During breakup the Isco hose will not be able to be anchored to rebar, and so will have to lay on the bed. Please note where the Isco hose is, and when it gets moved. Before leaving for the spring, the Isco intake should be anchored to rebar as far into the channel as possible, approximately 6” off the river bed.
*Take a “manual sample” (there is a button on the Iscos for this) when a depth-integrated sample is taken. If you later cannot remember which bottle in the Isco corresponds to the program and which to the manual sample, the “results” will read out each bottle number’s date & time.
*The Isco can pump a maximum of 99 feet in distance and 20 feet in vertical head.
*During the very beginning of breakup when the Isco hose cannot be put in the water, please try to get grab samples multiple times a day. Mark these in your field book as “grab” for the collection instrument.

TO CONFIGURE SAMPLER:
*Select ENTER PROGRAM
*Select CONFIGURE
*Set Cock to correct time and date (using AST)
*Bottles and Sizes → Portable → 24 Bottles → Bottle volume is 1000 ml
*Suction line is 3/8 inch
*Suction line is vinyl
*Suction line length is X ft (every time you change the length of the suction line, you will need to configure this)
*Liquid Detector → Enable (if the Isco does not seem to be able to sample the correct volume, you may try turning off the liquid detector)
*0 Rinse cycles
*Enter head manually → Again you can try saying no and allowing the liquid detector to determine sample volume, but this may not work with the long hoses and vertical heads we will be trying this year
*Retry up to 1 times when sampling
*Programming mode → Basic
*Then hit enter a whole bunch of times and it will test the Isco and bring you back to the main menu...
*Reintialize? → NO

TO ENTER A PROGRAM:
*Select ENTER PROGRAM
*Select PROGRAM
*Select TIME
*Sample every 6 or 48 hours
*Multiplex Samples: NO
*Sample volumes of 700 ml
*Enter start time: YES
*Start time of 15:00, with the samplers offset by 1 day
*Select MANUAL SAMPLE on both samplers at the same time, remove these samples from the sampler after pumping
*Select START SAMPLING
*Start Sampling at Bottle 1

AFTER ENTERING THE PROGRAM YOU MUST HIT START SAMPLING, OTHERWISE THE ISCO REMAINS IN A STANDBY STATE.

TO EMPTY SAMPLER:
*Stop sampling if the sampler is still running
*Select DISPLAY STATUS
*Select RESULTS
*Note the time and date of the first bottle, each sample should subsequently be 48 hours after this during the summer. Also check the time and date of the second bottle in each sampler, as many of the Iscos have a manual sample in the first bottle and the preprogrammed samples starting in bottle two.

===Recording Bottles in Field Book===
-Each depth-integrated sample and Isco sample will be collected or transferred into a quart sized plastic sampling container. Each bottle should be marked with a number. Record the information about each bottle in your field book as follows:

Bottle Date Time Collection Instrument Isco # (if applicable)
22 5/25/2013 15:00 ADT Isco 1
531 5/26/2013 12:42 ADT Depth-Integrated

If the bottle is from an Isco please mark which Isco (there may be 2 Iscos at each site). Each Isco should have a number on it (if not, please mark the Iscos #1 and #2). In your field book draw a description of which Isco is where, and describe the location of the intake (i.e. on the bed, 15 cm off the bed). For the depth-integrated samples please describe where in the river cross-section the sampling was done, as well as an approximate depth of the sampling location.

===Depth-Integrated Sampling===
*Depth integrated samples should be taken whenever a discharge measurement is done.

Novatel Base GPS units

2013-05-09T18:47:49Z

137.229.78.185: /* Troubleshooting Base */

== gps-base-posave-30min novatel script ==

* This script has the base station run for 30 minutes before corrections are sent, allowing more time to get a more accurate base position before sending RTK corrections to the Rover (we also have a 3 minute script that can be used for testing).

== gps-base-posave-30min novatel script ==

*This script should be loaded into a Novatel Smart-V1 base GPS in order to provide RTK/DGPS corrections to a rover GPS. When the GPS is powered up, it will average position for 30 minutes, then will fix its position and start transmitting corrections via COM2 (connector J3) to a rover GPS via FreeWave or Bluetooth radios.

*Page numbers refer to the Novatel OEMV Firmware Reference Manual.

*The base GPS does not need a computer interfaced to it unless the operator wants to check on the configuration or message values (which is done using the COM1/J2 connection at 38400 baud, or USB1 or USB2). The only required connection is to a Freewave or Bluetooth radio to transmit the corrections to the rover GPS through COM2/J3 . For convenience, the USB3 port has log messages in text form at a slow rate that duplicate the faster messages sent from base to rover GPS.

*For loading a script to the GPS, the line endings need to be DOS-style (CR+LF). Opening and saving the script in Windows Wordpad should be sufficient to ensure this. Copy and paste from a browser page should also be sufficient.

saveconfig

log loglist
log comconfig

*line-by-line annotations:

unlogall

*The unlogall command (p 216) releases any log commands that may already be set, e.g., perhaps automatically by the Novatel CDU utility. For the Novatel GPS receivers, logging means producing output on one or more ports.
posave 0.5 0.01 0.05

*posave (p 161), the position average instruction, causes the GPS to average position until one of the conditions are met, after which the FIX POSITION (p 115) command is automatically invoked. The parameters are:

maxtime = 0.5 hours
maxhstd = 0.01 meters
maxvstd = 0.05 meters

The second and third parameters are target horizontal and vertical deviations in meters, here 1 and 5 cm respectively, while the first is the maximum time in hours to wait if the target deviation values are not achieved. These deviations are not realistic, so the time limit will control. Instead the deviations if anything represent a hoped-for ideal.
sbascontrol enable auto 0 zerototwo

*sbascontrol (p 187) sets the Satellite Based Augmentation System corrections. The parameters are:

keyword = ENABLE (or DISABLE)
system = AUTO (or ANY, WAAS, EGNOS, MSAS)
PRN = 0 (or 120-138)
testmode = ZEROTOTWO (or NONE, IGNOREZERO)

These enable SBAS corrections; allow the GPS to choose which SBAS system to use; use any available augmentation platform; and interpret Type 0 messages as Type 2 (whatever that means).
com com1 38400

*COM (p 87) port configuration.

The port COM1 (connector J2) connection to a computer at 38400 baud is optional for the base GPS, but is available if the operator wants to query the base GPS for any reason, or perhaps to upload a new script.
com com2 115200

Port COM2 (connector J3) is used to transmit RTK corrections at 115200 baud from the base GPS to a rover GPS on the boat via FreeWave or Bluetooth radio pairs.
interfacemode com2 none rtca off

*interfacemode (p 135) sets the mode of operation of the specified com port, and must appear after the COM command if used (because COM will reset the interface mode).

Here we configure COM2/J3 to transmit RTCA corrections from the base GPS via FreeWave or Bluetooth radios.

port = COM2
rxtype = none
txtype = rtca
responses = OFF

interfacemode usb1 novatel novatel on
interfacemode usb2 novatel novatel on

Here we configure two of the three USB interfaces to use novatel mode, which means they will accept commands and output logs.

port = USB1, USB2
rxtype = novatel
txtype = novatel
responses = ON

log com2 rtcaobs ontime 1
log com2 rtcaref ontime 10
log com2 rtca1 ontime 5
log com2 rtcaephem ontime 10 1

LOG (p 143) configures the GPS to output information on the specified port and at a given rate and offset. This group of log commands defines what information is sent from the base GPS to the rover GPS via port COM2 (connector J3).

RTCA messages (p 423) are designed to support aviation precision instrument approaches, and have some improvements over the RTCM messages.

The RTCAOBS (p 430) message contains base station satellite observation information, with one line per satellite, so that the rover GPS can correct the range observations for those satellites.

The RTCAREF (p 435) message contains base station position information, and should be sent every 10 seconds (as done here).

RTCA1 messages, RTCA Standard Type 1 messages, are sent every 5 seconds from the base to the rover GPS.

RTCAEPHEM messages are sent every 10 seconds plus an offset of 1 second from base to rover GPS. They contain raw satellite ephemeris information.
log usb3 rtcadataobs ontime 10
log usb3 rtcadataref ontime 10 2
log usb3 rtcadata1 ontime 10 4
log usb3 rtcadataephem ontime 10 6

This group of log messages provide the same information as the above GPS-to-GPS messages, but at a slower rate so that an operator can see what's happening more easily. The DATA term in the message name provides more verbose output, so that, e.g., bit fields are broken out as separate values.

The various messages are output every 10 seconds, offset 2 seconds apart, on the USB3 port.
saveconfig

*SAVECONFIG (p 187) writes the configuration into non-volatile memory, so that the configuration remains after power is lost and restored.
log loglist

*LOG LOGLIST (p 355) displays the configured log messages, ports, rates, and offsets for information only.
log comconfig

*LOG COMCONFIG (p 291) displays the ports configuration for information only.

*general notes

*To load a script, connect to a suitable port on the GPS using a terminal emulator program, e.g., HyperTerminal, Putty, Minicom (linux), etc.. A suitable port is one that is set to receive in novatel mode, so that commands will be accepted; COM1/J2, USB1, or USB2 are available with this configuration. To test for this, type a command that will produce output, e.g., log loglist, log bestpos, or even just log; if a response is seen then commands should be accepted on that port.

*To use the USB ports from the Novatel GPS on a computer, the Novatel driver must be installed, and then the mapping of the three Novatel USB interfaces to a COM number on the computer has to be determined. CSI DevConfig can be used for this (click on the elipses for "Unknown", ... next to the 'PC Serial Port' box), and will be on the project computers (Toughbook laptops), or the Windows System Device Manager, Ports tab can be used. There should be three Novatel USB Virtual Serial Ports, most likely in consecutive order, but possibly mapped to different numbers than for a previous session.

*Note that the Novatel serial com ports are wired as DCE (data communications equipment), so can connect to a DTE (data terminal equipment) serial port on a computer (laptop) with a straight-through cable. The Freewave radio modem is also DCE, so a null modem cable needs to be used for the GPS COM2/J3 connection to the modem.

*Note that typed characters will not be echoed by the novatel GPS, so it may appear that the interface is not working unless a valid command (i.e., one that will generate a response) is entered. (The log command with no argument should produce an error message, but that's good enough for this pupose.)

*Note that the function of the POSAVE (position average) instruction is to control how long the GPS averages its position before the FIX POSITION command is automatically invoked. If the base GPS will occupy the same location each day, then a script can be made with POSAVE instruction replaced by FIX POSITION (p 115) with position data, e.g., obtained using the LOG BESTPOS novatel command, perhaps after using POSAVE with a very long maxtime hours value.

== Troubleshooting Base ==
* check to see that the freewave or bluetooth radio lights are working.
* Remember, you are looking for a quality 9 (WAAS) or quality 5 (RTK)
* check battery voltage and change batteries
* Reload the program in hyperterminal
* if the program doesn't seem to be loading properly, open in Wordpad and save. Then copy/paste to host in hyperterminal.
* Some tips for trouble shooting the base. Hook up the USB on the base to your toughbook and go to USB1 or USB2 in hyperterminal. type log to ensure you are in USB1 or USB2. then type "log bestpos" (in hyperterminal) of the base can give you a little information, for example if you see INSUFFICIENT_OBS, something may be wrong with the base. If you get SOL_COMPUTED FIXEDPOSITION you should be good to go and getting RTK to the rover-- so maybe something is wrong with your radio pair if you are not seeing quality of 5 at the rover. If you see SOL_COMPUTED WAAS, it hasn't yet gotten the fixed position and you may be in that 30 minute or 3 minute wait period. If you believe 30 minutes has passed, you could try to send the command posave 0.01 (which will change the time to get the fixed position to 1 minute) and then wait a minute to see if you get SOL_COMPUTED FIXEDPOSITION when you type "log bestpos"
*If the base loses power, it defaults back to the 30 minute time period to get a fixed position.

Freewave Radios to work with Novatel GPS units

== FreeWave radios for Novatel RTK GPS and ADCP ==
The following is from:

http://hayes.engr.uaf.edu:6152/projects/novatel/annotated-scripts-25apr2013/freewave-radios-for-rtk.html

*Introduction

For accurate GPS position, velocity, and time information during river discharge measurements, WERC has several Novatel Smart-V1 GPS receivers in base + rover pairs. The base GPS averages its position, then begins transmitting correction data to the rover GPS on the boat with the ADCP sensor. A pair of FreeWave radios, or serial data radio modems, can be used for this (Bluetooth is another option), with a radio connected to each GPS unit.

The Novatel GPS units have two serial com ports, COM1 and COM2, which are accessed on connectors labelled J2 and J3 respectively. We use COM2/J3 to carry the GPS RTK corrections data via radio on both the base and rover systems, at 115,200 baud.

The FreeWave radios are configured as master or slave, where only the master can initiate a connection to the slave radio. But once a connection is established there is no difference between the radios, and serial data is moved in either direction.

The most flexible arrangement is to configure the radio for the base GPS as a slave, and the rover GPS radio as master. With this setup the base system can sit there for as long as necessary, hours or days, but its radio will only consume significant power when a rover system is connected to it.

*setting and/or checking radio configuration

Connect the radio serial port to a computer using a straight-through cable, and run a terminal program (e.g., putty, hyperterm, minicom, etc.) at 19200 baud with a connection to the computer serial port.

Press or toggle the setup button or switch on the FreeWave radio. This should cause the radio's main menu to appear on the terminal. Also, the three radio LEDs will be green when the radio is in setup mode.

Note the radio serial number at the top of the main menu. This is a 7-digit number, usually formatted to look like a phone number. The base radio number will need to be added to the rover/boat radio callbook.

The radio setup menus are navigated by pressing a single number or letter key, usually with no RETURN required. Use the ESC key to exit from a menu or action.

0 menu -- set radio operating mode

The base radio will be set to mode 4, point-to-point slave/repeater

The boat/rover radio will be set to mode 0, point-to-point master
1 menu -- set radio serial port baud rate

Set the radio serial port to 115,200 baud. Other parameters should be 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity.
2 menu -- radio callbook

On the boat/rover radio, find or enter the base radio serial number as one of the numbered entries in the callbook. To set it at entry 0, press 0, then enter the target radio number, then press ESC. Confirm that the expected number is shown for that entry.

Also on the boat/rover radio, press C to set the entry to call, and press the entry number for the base radio. With the rover radio in operating mode 0, it will try to connect to that radio whenever powered up.

The callbook is not important on the base radio since it is a slave and will not initiate calls.
3 menu -- radio parameters

On the base (slave> radio only one entry is significant (the others will be set in operation by the master radio). Entry 6 for slave security must be disabled with the value 1 (note: not 0!).

On the boat/rover/master radio several entries are important.

The frequency key value should be different from other FreeWave radios that may be operating in the area. A value of 1 or 2 should be safe. If interference is observed or suspected a different value can be tried. The WERC North Slope Radio Network uses frequency keys 9 (toolik), 4 (toolik2), 6 (deadhorse), ? (sagriver),

Transmit power should usually be the maximum value, e.g., 9 or higher.

Slave security should be turned off with value 1. If slave security is enabled (value 0), the slave (base) radio will not allow a connection to the master (boat/rover) unless the master radio number is in the slave radio's callbook.

Other parameters are important but please refer to the FreeWave manual for details.

Optional. Menu 4 can be useful to diagnose failing or weak connections. The status of the last connection should be shown. Press ESC to exit back to the main menu, or ENTER to see more detailed information.

*appendix: FreeWave radio basics

The FreeWave serial data modem radio has a single serial com port in DCE, data communications equipment or modem, configuration, so it can connect to a computer serial port (which is DTE, data terminal equipment) with a straight-through, male to female serial cable.

To configure a FreeWave radio, connect it to a computer (laptop) serial port using a straight-through serial cable, provide 12 V power, and hit the setup switch, which may be either a momentary-on toggle switch or a recessed momentary pushbutton. The computer will need to be running a serial terminal emulator program, e.g., HyperTerminal, Putty, Minicom (for linux), etc.., and will need to be set for 19200 baud.

Note that the FreeWave setup interface, when accessed via the setup button, is always at 19200 baud. When in setup mode, all three LEDs on the FreeWave radio front panel will be green, and this pattern is only indicative of setup mode.

In setup mode the FreeWave radio presents a main menu, and accepts single-number command entries, with no Enter/Return key required for most settings.

Hi Emily,

I may have made some minor changes to the base script annotations, and
have a draft of the riogrande rover version.

http://hayes.engr.uaf.edu:6152/projects/novatel/annotated-scripts-25apr2013/gps-base-posave-30min.html

http://hayes.engr.uaf.edu:6152/projects/novatel/annotated-scripts-25apr2013/gps-rover-riogrande.html

I think this may be sufficient, and I do not intend to do this for
the other scripts since there's a lot of duplication, and most of the
differences would be different log output rates or similar details.
Maybe an appendix could be used to list different versions.

I did add some text mentioning the FIX POSITION instruction at the end of
the base page, since that is an option that could be useful in some cases.

I tried to include page numbers referencing entries in the Novatel manual.
I had earlier prepared subsets of the manual to include only the few commands
and logs we commonly use, available here:
