Subject:
TWP/SKYRAD/C2 - Tracker inoperative
DataStreams:twpskyrad20sC2.a0, twpskyrad60sC2.b1
Description:
The tracker failed in park position.  Tracker was replaced 5/14 but did not resume fully 
normal operation until 5/18.

The down_short_diffuse and short_direct_normal data are directly affected by this failure. 
 These data are not recoverable.
Suggestions: 
Measurements:twpskyrad60sC2.b1:
  • Shortwave direct normal irradiance, pyrheliometer, minima(short_direct_normal_min)
  • Shortwave direct normal irradiance, pyrheliometer(short_direct_normal)
  • Downwelling shortwave diffuse hemispheric irradiance, pyranometer, maxima(down_short_diffuse_hemisp_max)
  • Downwelling Shortwave Diffuse Hemispheric Irradiance, Pyranometer, Standard
    Deviation(down_short_diffuse_hemisp_std)
  • Downwelling Shortwave Diffuse Hemispheric Irradiance, Pyrgeometer, Minima(down_short_diffuse_hemisp_min)
  • Downwelling Shortwave Diffuse Hemispheric Irradiance, Ventilated Pyranometer(down_short_diffuse_hemisp)
  • Shortwave Direct Normal Irradiance, Pyrgeometer, Standard Deviation(short_direct_normal_std)
  • Shortwave Direct Normal Irradiance, Pyrheliometer, Maxima(short_direct_normal_max)

twpskyrad20sC2.a0:
  • Instantaneous uncorrected downwelling shortwave diffuse, shaded pyranometer
    thermopile voltage(inst_diffuse)
  • Instantaneous direct normal shortwave irradiance, pyrheliometer thermopile
    voltage(inst_direct_normal)
