Rodeo’s Fenceline Weblog

The north FTIR data has been absent for three days.
et

The north UV is showing a low signal and neither UVs are  registering any valid data.

Also, when can we expect temp and humidity on the met channel?

I smells bad in Crockett today and it’s coming from you. Mostly petrol odor I think.

Either there is no ozone (or anything else) in the atmosphere or the UV instruments are useless (non calibrated). I suspect the latter.

South FTIR remains useless as it rarely reports.
There hasn’t been Met data for more than two months and this is data we can actually use if there is a release.
No updates on status since Dec. 28.  Please advise.

Reported data most recently was:

15:08:30
14:32:19
13:52:52
13:03:37
11:56:43

These should be every 5 minutes.  What is happening???
North FTIR is also not consistant but much better.  Other instruments are OK.  Please post a comment here with answers.
Thanks,

We are geting sporatic updates from north and south FTIRs.  All other data are coming in normally.

Went down about 6pm yesterday.

PLEASE REPORT THE PROBLEM FOUND AND THE FIX HERE AS A COMMENT.  WE NEED THIS FOR RELIABILITY IMPROVEMENTS.

Lost it Saturday noon.

As of last night, all instruments are reporting again. OOPS. Correction… South UV went down this morning and is not reporting.

Apparently the fenceline is not being taken seriously.  It is now over four weeks and with no real data being reported.  Only the North UV device is reporting.  Apparently connectivity has FINALLY been restored to the devices.  SO WHAT’S THE PROBLEM NOW?  Cerex was supposed to get it going now. HELLO?????

We will need a performance clause in the MOU with teeth.  Someone must pay for downtime.  Otherwise we will have more of the same.  We haven’t worked so hard for a system that works only on a whim.

No data.  OUCH!
