This station was installed on
March 19th, 2009 and its programming was updated on
May 21st, 2009. After this update, FACE adopted a routine of visits on roughly a monthly basis for accessing the ADCP and downloading its data via the cables that run into the main datalogger box. During each visit, the datalogger's CF Memory card would be removed and replaced with another, blank card. The old card's data would then be used to "patch" any holes in the station's satellite transmissions, and certain more granularly-timed data (10-minute averages and maxima/minina through May 21st, and 6-minute data thereafter) would become available for CHAMP/FACE analysis.
The next significant station equipment/programming update would take place on March 22nd, 2010. ADCP and memory-card downloads in the period between May 2009 and March 2010 occurred as follows:
- June 5th, 2009
- July 7th, 2009
- July 31st, 2009
- August 28th, 2009
- September 24th, 2009
- October 13th, 2009
- November 16th, 2009
- January 15th, 2010
