TWP/VCEIL/C2 - Time offset

On 7/14/2006, I found that the ceilometer time was 8m 36s slow, the PC time display (lower 
right taskbar) was frozen at "22:24", and AboutTime was not running. Corrected it on 
7/17 by running AboutTime so that 19:03:29 became 19:12:05. This also corrected the frozen 
display on the Windows98 taskbar. 

I am not sure of the start time of this problem but there were several other Windows 
related issues that had to be corrected on 5/14 with indications of inappropriate access via 
Remote Administrator on 5/13. I do not know if the time offset was a sudden or gradual 
change.

• Vertical visibility(vertical_visibility)
• Aerosol volume backscattering coefficient at 355 nm(backscatter)
• Second lowest cloud base height(second_cbh)
• Percentage of nominal factory setting (0 to 999%)(receiver_sensitivity)
• Millivolts at internal ADC input (0 to 2500)(background_light)
• Distance to the center of the corresponding range bin(range)
• Window contamination(window_contamination)
• Warning, alarm, and internal status information(status_string)
• Time offset from base_time(time_offset)
• Lowest cloud base height detected(first_cbh)
• Laser temperature(laser_temperature)
• Degrees from vertical (-15 to +90)(tilt_angle)
• Percentage of nominal factory setting (0 to 999%)(laser_pulse_energy)
• Detection status.(detection_status)
• 6 character string describing instrument measurement parameters(measurement_parameters)
• Third cloud base height(third_cbh)
• Flag indicating aeri retrieval status(status_flag)
• base time in epoch(base_time)
• Altitude of highest signal(alt_highest_signal)
• Sum of detected and normalized backscatter(sum_backscatter)
