274 -* Place the node on the harvester gently, then firmly press it down onto the pins.
275 -* Place all nodes onto the harvester before trying any troubleshooting, as they may not show up while the SoloLite software is running. Once all are connected, try restarting the software for them to be recognised.
276 -* If a node is refusing to connect, try it with another slot. It is easiest if you place all 16 nodes on the harvester, and swap any nodes that refuse to connect with each other.

476 -
477 -The** 5 Hz nodes** are susceptible to horizontal noise due to the placement of geophones in the units, **but this can be mitigated by completely burying the units flush with the ground.** In the below example, the node was set on the floor of our basement set on its plastic carrying case support. As such the amount of horizontal noise noticeably increases above ~~ 10Hz.
