Summary of XPIA BAO Site Visit, 11 May 2015

1) WC61 was offline for the most number of days the previous week. It's stage head was rotating upon arrival, but stopped as soon as a Remote Desktop session was attempted. System was rebooted via the power switch. It was then reconnected to Cellular data network after a Verizon software coverage update. JKL confirmed login through TeamViewer.

2) WC68 was taking data and able to logged into via Remote Desktop Connection. Cellular data connection and related software programs were restarted and all worked fine on the device.

All data corresponding to NWTC 4.0 pad Fall 2014 was copied and removed from data hard drive, including empty of Windows Recycle Bin. However, RAW .dsp files were for this time period were not copied over (very large), but were moved to Windows Recycle Bin and not removed.

The above actions reduced disk usage to ~64%, which is much lower than the usage upon arrival.

3) WC16 v2 offshore system is so quiet, it is difficult to know if it is running when making a site visit! Neither Mozilla Firefox (windweb) nor a ping from a command window to the IP address could connect to the system.

Power was shut down momentarily to the system, and then a reboot occurred. Both the windweb software and the FileZilla data transfer worked beautifully. Although the analyst will have to look into the data files, a cursory look into the system showed little to no missing data, except for the brief time of power down today on 11 May.

4) ~3.05 GB of data from the AXYS Vindicator LiDAR system Compact Flash Card was copied today. PTQ updated the Google Drive folder to include the additional data.

--Electrical tape was put over a few outlet spots. Power cords sustained the Colorado rain & snow deluge of the power week.
--All 3 WC and the AXYS lenses were manually wiped off.
