To pre-program the cards you simply edit a text file (named "[[ANUSRSetup.txt>>http://auspass.edu.au/field/ANUSRSetup.txt]]" for the LPRs, or "[[tSAWRSetup.txt>>http://auspass.edu.au/field/tSAWRSetup.txt]]" for the TerraSAWRs) and place it in the root directory on the SDCard.

Not advised! 136 - 137 -= LogFile Conversion Script = 138 - 139 -Both the TSAWR and LPR-200 write logging information as a binary "dat" file which includes GPS time syncs, temperatures, battery power, and position. To convert them into ASCII you can read, use [[THIS PYTHON SCRIPT>>http://auspass.edu.au/field/anusr_log.py]]. 140 - 141 -= Instrument Response = 142 - 143 -Both the TerraSAWR and LPR-200 use the same ADS1281 analog-to-digital converter chip and are designed to have identical instrument response. Depending on the output sample rate (e.g. 100 Hz, 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1000 Hz) amplitude response is consistently flat up to ~~100 Hz but phase response can vary above 1 Hz at 100 Hz (or 10 Hz at 250 Hz). 144 - 145 -The user can choose to apply a 2nd stage "sensor gain" by selecting an instrument type in the setup menu. This effectively selects a 10 Vpp (e.g. short period sensors), 20 Vpp, 40 Vpp (most broadband sensors) regime to match the sensor's sensitivity. This has the effect of doubling amplitude from 10v to 20v, or quadrupling from 10v to 40v. If you have set your sensor correctly (and the signal isn't clipped!) you can "correct" this by simply multiplying your data by 0.5 etc. 146 - 147 -Another important thing to note is that the group delay associated with late stage FIR filters is **automatically applied in the logger**, hence there is no need to apply this in the response. These tend to max out at 0.124 seconds for most output sampling rates (0.062 s for 100 Hz). 148 - 149 -Instrument response can be downloaded from IRIS-NRL (v2) if need be, or by downloading the response of an equivalent sensor at AusPass (e.g. get_stations(level='response') ) 150 - 151 - 152 -= ANU TerraSAWR (Gen 3, FW 3.5a, 2017?- current) = 153 - 154 -Words to describe the TSAWR would go here, if needed 155 - 156 - 157 - 158 -= ANU LPR-200 (Gen 2, FW 2.6a/2.7a, 2013 - current) = 159 - 160 -Ditto the mighty LPR! 161 - 162 - 163 163 = ANU "ANUSR" (Gen 1, 2003? - 2013?) = 164 164 165 - This logger has been retired for a long time and has a different instrument response.80 +x 166 166 167 - 168 168 = References = 169 169 170 170 * [[PDF Manual>>http://auspass.edu.au/field/LPR-200_Instruction_Manual.pdf]] ... ... @@ -180,7 +180,6 @@ 180 180 ))) 181 181 182 182 183 - 184 184 (% class="box" %) 185 185 ((( 186 186 = TerraSAWR Specs = ... ... @@ -193,7 +193,7 @@ 193 193 [[image:1704864886951-793.jpg]] 194 194 195 195 |=Size (L x W x H)|30 x 25 x12cm 196 -|=Weight (with battery)| 1.9kg (2.5kg) 109 +|=Weight (with battery)| ~*~*1.9kg (2.5kg) 197 197 |=Battery|((( 198 198 Lead-acid 12v, ~~7Ah 199 199 ... ... @@ -215,7 +215,7 @@ 215 215 [[image:LPR 3.jpg]] 216 216 217 217 |=Size (L x W x H)|42 x 34 x17 cm 218 -|=Weight ( nobattery)|5.5kg131 +|=Weight (with battery)|4.9 kg (7.3 kg) 219 219 |=Battery|((( 220 220 LiFePo4 140Ah 221 221 ... ... @@ -226,3 +226,5 @@ 226 226 ))) 227 227 ))) 228 228 ))) 142 + 143 +
