SURFACE TEMPERATURE HUMIDITY REFERENCE SYSTEM

Overview

[Purpose:]{.underline}

The Surface Temperature and Relative Humidity Reference Station
(SurTHRef) is intended to provide accurate reference values of ambient
temperature and relative humidity for comparison with radiosonde
pre-launch values.

[References]{.underline}:

ECR-00319 (Modify BBSS surface reference system at SGP)

ECO-00319 (Modify the Chilled Mirror/BBSS surface reference system at
SGP)

[Components]{.underline}:

-   Meteorological Instrument Shelter. The shelter is a standard NWS
    "Stevenson screen" modified to allow for operator access on two
    sides. The shelter dimensions are 20" x30" x34".

-   Instrument Shelter stand.

-   Aspirated Chamber. The chamber is fabricated from white
    polypropylene plastics. Its dimensions are 11"x13"x18" (volume =
    1.49 ft^3^). One end is open and covered with a removable plate
    containing a 7" x7.5" access port. Two muffin fans, each rated at
    115 cfm are mounted at the far end. The fans produce an estimated
    face flow of 10.49 fps or 3.2 m/s. The chamber has 6 sensor ports on
    its top surface to accommodate standard temperature and relative
    humidity probes.

-   Sonde positioning platform. A polypropylene platform is mounted
    approximately 1" above the bottom of the aspirated chamber. The
    platform is equipped with moveable guides for positioning
    radiosondes. A user-controlled switch is mounted on the side of the
    Aspirated Chamber to indicate when a radiosonde is placed in or
    removed from the chamber.

-   Temperature and relative humidity probes.

    -   Vaisala HMP45D probes -- four each, one spare.

    -   Rotronics MP100H probes -- four each, one spare.

-   Data logger. The system uses a Campbell Scientific Instruments CR23X
    data logger.

-   Dell Computer. The computer is configured to conform to ARM Core-PC
    standards.

[Power Requirements:]{.underline}

-   Muffin fans use 110V AC.

-   Data logger uses 110V AC through an AC/DC converter.

-   Probes use 12V DC supplied by the data logger. The Vaisala probes
    require \< 4 mA; the Rotronics probes \< 10 mA.

-   Enclosure heater uses 110V AC

-   Enclosure cooling fan uses 110V AC

-   Micro-switch uses 5V DC supplied by the data logger.

##### Corrective Maintenance

The Surface Temperature and Humidity Reference System, SurTHRef, is
designed to require a minimum amount of routine maintenance. If the
system does not operate properly or conform to the routine checks, the
following action steps should be taken.

1\) On-site check. The site operator should check for obvious problems
like battery voltage out of operating range (9.6 to 16 V) and loose
connections.

> If the system is not operating, try restarting by turning off the
> power and then turning it back on. The program is automatically
> reloaded on power-up.
>
> If one sensor is not operating properly, replace it using the
> Installation Manual as a guide. A spare of each sensor type has been
> supplied. When a sensor is replaced, verification will need to be
> performed and documented. Updates to the program will need to be
> accomplished to capture the serial number change.

2\) Inform the instrument mentor. If the site operator is unable to
correct the problem, inform Michael Ritsche or Barry Lesht, the
instrument mentors. They may be contacted at:

##### Depot Maintenance

Some components that have been replaced due to malfunction or being out
of tolerance will be returned to the vendor and/or manufacturer for
service and/or repair. Normally this will be done after consultation
with the instrument mentor. Many items can and will be repaired in the
Repair Lab at the Central Facility. All sensors will be returned to the
SGP CF and given to George Sawyer. He will either have them repaired
under warranty, repaired in-house in the Repair Lab, or send them to the
appropriate vendor. If a unit or system has to be shipped to the SGP,
ship to the address listed below. An ARM SGP shipment notification form
'**must'** be filled out and sent to SGP before the shipment arrives. A
link to that form is attached below.

###### Shipment Notification

All returns will be evaluated in the lab and/or repaired. If the unit
cannot be repaired in the lab it will be sent to the manufacturer or
appropriate vendor. An RMA number must be obtained from the vendor. A
SGP PR must be filled out with all of the appropriate information
including the obtained RMA number. The PR will list the quoted repair
cost and/or a not to exceed cost. The PR must be signed by all of the
appropriate managers and then faxed to Laurel Chapman at Argonne
National Lab. When notified by Argonne that a PO is in place, pack the
unit appropriately and ship it to its repair destination.

Appendix B

Six-Month Procedures

SurTHRef

Six-Month Calibration Procedures

Frequency: Twice a year

Mentor: Michael Ritsche, Barry Lesht

To verify the accuracy and installation of the six temperature and
relative humidity probes the following will need to be accomplished:

Remove the humidity cap from each of the sensors and clean or replace.
The Vaisala probe humidity cap is replaced on a similar time frame to
the SMOS replacement. The Rotronic humidity cap is made of wire mesh.
This cap should be gently cleaned using a mild detergent and soft
bristled brush. It will need to dried thoroughly before re-installation.
If major damage has occurred the humidity cap should be replaced.

Verification of the sensors is done with the Vaisala HMI31/HMP35 T/RH
meter. Set or hold the measuring portion of the meter inside the
polypropylene aspirated chamber. Ensure that the meter is centered and
at similar height to the measuring portion of the six probes. Turn on
the meter and allow it to stabilize so that the meter readings are
changing by less than 0.2 ^o^C and 1% RH. When the meter has stabilized,
wait an additional five minutes before taking readings. The readings
from the sensors are available inside the sonde trailer and are located
on the PC in the program called BBSSRef.RTMC.

**Sensor Replacement Procedures**

######### Sensor Replacement Procedures

######### 

Both the Rotronic and Vaisala probes have removable sensing units. To
access the sensing unit it is necessary to remove the probe from the
Aspirated Chamber.

-   Turn the copper retaining screw counter clockwise to loosen and
    remove the sensor from the chamber.

-   Grasp the sensor body firmly and remove the sensing unit.

-   Replace the sensing unit with a recently calibrated unit.

-   Return the sensor to the Aspirated Chamber and tighten the copper
    retaining screw by turning it clockwise.

-   Check the BBSSRef.rtmc Overview screen to ensure the new unit is
    working properly and compare the new sensors readings to the
    readings of the other sensors in the Aspirated Chamber.

The CR23X program will need to be updated with the new sensors serial
number. To change the program you will need to log onto the collector PC
as administrator. Once logged on as administrator, double click on the
shortcut "Shortcut to Administrative Tools" located on the desktop.
Next, double click on "Services". Find LoggerNet in the list of services
and highlight by left clicking on it. On the left hand side two menu
choices will show up in blue text. Choose "Stop" to stop the service.

![](media/image2.png){width="5.9944444444444445in"
height="4.495833333333334in"}

Once the service has been stopped, go to "Start" and choose "LoggerNet"
to start the program. When the LoggerNet menu bar is active click on
"EdLog".

![](media/image3.png){width="5.995138888888889in"
height="1.4319444444444445in"}

When Edlog starts go to "File\>\>Open" and navigate to the
C:\\SurTHRefPgm folder and choose the .csi program (.csi should be
default) and open it. Navigate to the lower section of the program where
the DAILY OUTPUT and LOGISTICS section is located.

\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*DAILY OUTPUT and
LOGISTICS\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*

;

;This output, once per day, captures the serial number

;of the 6 probes; three Vaisala HMP-45D\'s and three Rotronic MP100H.

;The Rotronic probe serial numbers are: 92781,

;92782, 92783. The Vaisala probe serial numbers are: Y3110012,

;Y3110013, Y3110014. Campbell doesn\'t allow for text values

;to be entered so we capture the Vaisala probes SN\'s as 0012, 0013,
0014.

;The locations of the probes in the box are also captured in variables
called

;XXlocate, where XX corresponds to V1, V2, V3 for the Vaisala probes and
R1, R2, R3

;for the Rotronic probes. The location of a particular probe and the
serial number

;should match. For example, if Vaisala probe 0012 is V1 and it is in

;location 1 then the value of V1probeSN should be 0012 and the value of
V1locate

;should be 1. The ranges of values for locations are 1 - 12. The number

;of the location is as follows, if looking down on top of the

;box with the open end at the bottom.

Change the serial number in location 1 (see bold values above) of the
appropriate instruction number for a particular probe or location. For
example, if the probe located in V2 was changed go to Instruction 27 and
change the serial number in location 1 of Instruction 27 (0013 above).
The same holds true for moving sensors or changing the location. If the
probes in located in V2 and V3 are swapped the serial numbers also have
to be swapped in the program.

Once the program has been changed, click on "save" and when the warning
banner comes up asking you to compile click on "yes". If there are
errors or warnings stop and contact the mentor(s). If there are no
warnings proceed with loading the program to the data logger. EdLog can
be closed at this time.

Go back to the main LoggerNet menu bar and click on "Connect". When the
"Connect" screen is active choose "BBSSRef" from the left hand menu
location under **Stations**. Once the BBSSRef logger is highlighted,
click on the "connect" button under **Control**. When communication with
the logger has been established (wires connect) click on "Send" under
**Program**. Choose the program that was just updated above
(C:\\SurTHRefPgm) and send it to the logger, click on "Ok" when the
warning banner appears. Click on "Disconnect" under **Control** to stop
communication with the data logger and close the "Connect" screen.

After the program has been sent, view the Overview screen of the
BBSSRef.rtmc program to ensure the data appear reasonable and that
everything appears to be working properly. Notify the mentor(s) of the
probe and program change so that they can verify that the changes appear
during the next daily output.

Once the changes have been made and the new program sent LoggerNet needs
to be set as a Service again.

Close the LoggerNet menu bar and double click on "Shortcut to
Administrative Services" and double click on "Services" again. Navigate
to LoggerNet and choose "start" from the two choices listed in the left
hand window. Once LoggerNet has started as a service close all screens
and log off as administrator.

17. The logger you added in the above steps will be located in the
    Stations menu. Highlight the logger you wish to connect to and click
    on the *connect* button on the bottom. If everything is connected
    and correct the wires of the [Control]{.underline} display will
    connect. To send a program to the logger click on the *Send* button
    under the [Program]{.underline} portion of the [Connect]{.underline}
    screen. Navigate to the directory where the program is stored
    (should be C:\\SurTHRefPgm) and select the appropriate program. Once
    the program has been selected, click on the *Send* button. A warning
    banner will be displayed stating that continuing will cause all data
    to be lost. Continue to send the program by clicking on the
    [Ok]{.underline} button. Once the send is complete and the logger
    has compiled the program, another message banner will be displayed,
    click on [Ok]{.underline} to finalize the transmission. Once
    connected and a program is running (assuming sensors connected) you
    can view the raw data and final stored data by clicking on the
    numbers in the [Data Displays]{.underline} section of the
    [Connect]{.underline} screen.

In order to communicate with the NL-100 you need a Null-modem cable and
a PC or Laptop with a terminal communication package. It is assumed for
the rest of this document that HyperTerminal is used. You will also need
12VDC to power the NL-100.

Connect the null modem cable to the PC and the NL-100. You will need a
cable with female connections at both ends. Use gender adaptors if
necessary. If this is the first time communicating with the NL-100 after
receipt from factory go to step 1b.

1a. Open NL-100 by removing four screws. Connect boot jumper across both
terminals.

![](media/image14.png){width="5.997222222222222in"
height="5.932638888888889in"}

1b. Connect power to NL-100 and connect Null Modem cable.

1c. Open hyperterminal and use following settings:

baud: 115200

databits: 8

parity: none

stop bits: one

flow control: none

2\. Strike the Enter button a few times to get the attention of the
NL-100 once the following is returned you may continue:

NL100/105 (ver, show, edit, defaults, reset, help, bye):

3\. Type E to Edit and make sure the following is set:

Tlink config \[dis\]

RS485 \[dis\]

CS I/O \[dis\]

RS232 Config \[TCPServ\]

RS232 bps \[19K\]

RS232 Serial Server Port \[6781\]

### Ethernet 10-baseT \[enabled\]

10-baseT port IP# \[198.124.98.19\] \*\*this value is logger IP address

mask \[255.255.255.0\]\*\*whatever mask is used

default gateway \[yes\]

default gateway IP \[198.124.98.1\]

Pakbus node \[678\]

Clock neighbor node ID \[0\]

PakTcp Server config \[dis\]

PakTcp client config \[dis\]

Modbus/Tcp gateway config \[dis\]

Config monitor telnet port \[23\]

Telnet Session password \[nl100\]

Serial Server Watchdog \[2\]

# Save

You can progress through the menu by pressing \<ENTER\>. If you make a
mistake after entering a setting, the up arrow can be used to move
backwards. If you need help for a particular setting, press the F1 key
or the ? key. You can also choose to select \<cancel\> at the end
instead of save if you want to start over.

**\*\***If the jumper was used it must be disconnected before returning
the NL-100 to use. If this is not done, the NL-100 will always be at the
boot prompt and will be inaccessible for remote communications.
