Subject: | SGP/RAIN/C1 - Lightning strike |
DataStreams: | sgprainC1.b1
|
Description: | A lightning strike took out the instrument on 6/12. Error_latch and stat_latch flags were
tripped and the instrument failed to record precip measured by co-located instruments
(e.g. on 6/13). Voltage and other data fields were also very erratic.
Instrument was replaced and normal operations resumed on 20110615. |
Suggestions: | Use precip data from MET, DISDROMETER or VDIS datasreams |
Measurements: | sgprainC1.b1: - Total precipitation over one minute sampling period(precip)
- Voltage minimum(volt_min)
- The latch counter counts number of measurement scans within one minute.(scans_per_min)
- Precipitation intensity(precip_rate)
- Temperature average, sensor 1(temp1)
- Temperature average, sensor 2(temp2)
- Millimeters of precipitation accumulated in the gauge since t he last tare.(total_mm)
- Temperature 3 inside the instrument enclosure(temp3)
- Panel temperature average(ptemp)
- Sensor 3 maximum weight(weight3)
- Sensor 2 maximum weight(weight2)
- Sensor 1 maximum weight(weight1)
- Total maintenance count(maintenance_cnt)
- Sensor status(stat_latch)
- Frequency average, sensor 1(frequency1)
- Frequency average, sensor 2(frequency2)
- Frequency average, sensor 3(frequency3)
- Record with error(error_latch)
- Weight of accumulated precipitation in the gauge since the la st tare(total_weight)
