244 +SmartSolo provides the following powerpoint for SmartSolo node programming and operation. Note that ANSIR only uses a portion of their process for our own uses: [[https:~~/~~/nappe.wustl.edu/smartsolo/files/smartsolo_online_training.pdf>>url:https://nappe.wustl.edu/smartsolo/files/smartsolo_online_training.pdf]]

246 +== Connection tips: ==
247 +
248 +Connecting SmartSolo nodes to their harvesters and having SoloLite recognise them can be a bit tricky, here are some tricks to help register and program them easier:
249 +
250 +* Place the node on the harvester gently, then firmly press it down onto the pins.
251 +* 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.
252 +* 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.
253 +* Nodes will likely not show up in the order that they should, though this is not an issue. E.g, a node in slot 6 on the harvester may show up in port 13 in the SoloLite software. Annoying, but it doesn't matter so long as you keep track of what's been harvested!

275 +== File structure ==
276 +
277 +There are essentially three main folders where relevant PROSPECT and PROJECT DATA is stored. Individual projects will be found as subfolders in these.
278 +
279 +=== SOLOLITE ===
280 +
281 +This folder stores SoloLite config files and parameters. Nothing too important stored here, you can always start over and re-create this.
282 +
283 +=== DCCDATA ===
284 +
285 +This folder stores the RAW data you have harvested from the nodes. The data will still be on the nodes (unless you erased it) in case of emergency, but regardless, this is the folder you want to back up and save somewhere.
286 +
287 +If you had a weird time harvesting a node, you can always manually copy it as if it were a USB stick and place it into this folder manually. The structure is: //C:/DCCDATA/prospect_name/project_name/SERIALNUMBER/label(usually a timestamp but can be anything)//
288 +
289 +Then in the SoloLite software, go to tools > Reanalyze Seismic Data
290 +
291 +=== SOLODATA ===
292 +
293 +This folder stores **exported** (e.g. miniseed) data. It is structured similarly. If your DCCDATA is intact, this can always be re-created if need be.

If data is headed to AusPass, we prefer to invert the IGU-16HR 3 Z channel data manually rather than in the SoloLite software or inverting the response metadata. **The BD3C-5 data does not require a polarity inversion.**
