Summary
Troubleshooting: station back online
Details
-
Anna and Hart arrived at station to find solar panel and solar radiation sensors both unplugged from the enclosure.
-
Also the weatherhead was off the soil sensor conduit and cables were being bent by the weight of the hanging weatherhead.
-
Battery down to 5.5V (photo taken). Battery replaced. All plugged back in.
-
Everything working (including 10cm soil moisture).
-
Completed regular maintenance and took photos (e.g., checked tipping bucket; rewrapped steel wool around soil cables; recoiled and taped cabling; replaced and taped weatherhead; checked all grounding; updated modem firmware-latest radio firmware gave an error and after speaking with Douglas this is no problem and only has to be done when the modem firmware upgrade prompts you; replaced desiccant).
