Data Processing
Design Goals Real Time Data Acquisition & Display Reliability Serviceability Expandability Low Power Consumption
Datalogger Program Two time tables – sampling / control Built with subroutines – easily modified Power Control – normal / low / critical Test Routines – self resetting
Future Plans F i x e s Cel Phone – cold WX Met Sensor – Icing Cable Breakage Instrument Batteries Buoy Battery / Icing Solar Panel Blowouts Verify Power Budget A d d i t i o n s Wave – 3D Humidity Barometric Pressure ECOLAB – nutrient analyzer FLOCAM – plankton analyzer Whale Phone Active Radar Reflector Digital / Web Phone
Summary Reliability Watertight Integrity Enclosed Antennas Flooded Coax Cable Sealed Battery Terminals Redundant Chargers Desiccant & Nitrogen Leak Detector Power Management Serviceability Test ports Test routines in program Standardization Expandability Spare input ports Standardized modules Space for additions Inductive Modem Program with subroutines Standardization
