Site Visit
Normal Site Visit Procedures
Whenever a visit is made to a MicroMet data site, the following checks should be
performed at a minimum: ( You can capture this session with HyperTerm capture
mode.)
! Connect the PC to the MicroMet at J3. Located at the bottom right most connection
on the MicroMet CPU.
Collect and observe the communication statistics: STAT.
Verify acceptable TX to ACK ratio (less than 10:1).
Verify acceptable SP to SYNC ratio (less than 2:1).
Verify no HIVSWR or LOWPWR.
! Connect PC to CR10X CSIO and run PC208W.
Use NUMERIC DISPLAY to verify sensor acquisition.
Verify CR10X time is correct (Alaska Standard Time), set if necessary.
! Verify proper antenna orientation, solar panel, etc.
Before leaving the site
Before you leave the site it would be a very good idea to:
! Verify that MicroMet communication statistics are normal. Abnormalities include:
1. A high transmit to ack ratio.
2. HiVSWR warnings.
3. Low power warnings.
! Record status and any abnormalities. IE: transmit to ack ratio, etc.
! Verify that the cable connecting MicroMet and the CR10X is properly in place. If this
cable is not in place, no data will ever reach the Master Station.
! Watch at least one data message get acknowledged. (verbose 5) see Warnings
and Advisories, pg 10.
! Canmsg off.
! Take the SC929 CR10X to PC cable with you.
! Take the MicroMet to PC cable with you.
