June 2013 Trip
Shipping
- New Instrumentation once it arrives on 5/26ish:
- Precip Buckets 3x
- Wind Screen 3x
- HMP155s 6x
- MetOne 5x
- Barometric Pressure
- Radiation Shields
- Cross Arms
- 1.5" Sched 40 Aluminum = Net Radiometer 3x
- 1" Sched 40 Aluminum = Upper WS & AT/RH 3x
- Tripod Mast
- 1.5" Sched 40 Galvanized Pipe
- Net Radiometer
- NuRail Fittings for crossarms
To Add to each site
- 2 HMP155s w/ Radiation Shields
- 2 Met One WS
- 1 Tipping Bucket w/ Windscreen
- 1 CNR4 Net Radiometer with Heater/Fan Control
- 1 AM16/32
Additionally, to add to Grid Site
- CS106 Barometric Pressure
- Need to dig out a vent tube
- Bring up parts to put a new hole in this enclosure
Rewiring at each site
- Move AM16/32B #1 & #2 RES to CR1000 C1
- Move SR50A Green Wire to CR1000 C5
- Reprogram the IDs for the SR50As
- #1 = ID7
- #2 = ID8
- #3 = ID9
- Reprogram the IDs for the SR50As
- Also Measure Thermal Conductivity Heater Values
- Bring up 3 resistors for CNR4 Thermistor measurement
To Do as of 6/8/2013
