30 FIFO (first in, first out) data mode is safest as this will overwrite old data in case you forgot to clear the storage. At <= 250 hz you can fit 4++ months of data on these, shouldn't be an issue.
31
robert 75.2 32 Note that the samplerate is instead given in sample spacing, in milliseconds. 4 ms = 250 Hz, 1 ms = 1000 Hz, 10 ms = 100 Hz, ad nauseam.
33
robert 74.2 34 Be sure to set the channel types to Seismic and the gain appropriately. For active source (i.e. explosions) you can leave the gain at 0, but for passive experiments some gain is purported to be helpful (although we have found this to be somewhat negligible). We can confirm that 6db for the broadband nodes and 24db for the short period works well.
35
robert 75.1 36 If you want recording to begin immediately, ensure that begin date is in the past by at least a few days. If you prefer to have a timed turn-on, then set the times as needed. **Be warned that recording will not begin until a GPS lock is achieved, so if you set it to a future turn-on but bury it too deeply, it may not record!**
37
robert 74.2 38 In newer versions of the software there is a "power consumption" setting.. we are no sure what this does exactly, but the manual says it gives life a "boost" at the expense of about 3 db of resolution. Until this can be quantified a bit better it is not recommended.
39
robert 75.1 40 Storage type can be DLD (proprietary) or Miniseed. We assume the software works best with their proprietary format so prefer not to risk any issues. You can export to miniseed later.
robert 74.2 41
robert 75.1 42 GPS is best set to cycle mode (e.g. once per hour) instead of constant "always on". The clock drift on these are almost nil even if there is no sync at all, so it's best to conserve power.
robert 74.2 43
KB 94.4 44 Bluetooth (BD3C-5 only) should be turned OFF to conserve power.
robert 75.1 45
KB 94.4 46 We recommend that the 16HR-3C be set to a gain of 24db for passive experiments and no higher than 250 Hz sampling rate unless there is an explicit reason to do so. The BD3C-5 should be set to a gain of 6db (which is the maximum allowed) for passive experiments (or 0 db if active).

65 If you are short on magnets, you may find it easier and a lot cheaper to buy magnets in Australia. AMF Magnetics is a good retailer, and [[this item>>https://magnet.com.au/collections/shop?q=23012B]] seems to work well. It is also advantageous to use smaller magnets and store/carry them individually in your back pocket (as well as stick them to various places in your field vehicle, etc).

68
KB 94.4 69 We have experienced interference from animals (foxes, dogs, goats) digging up and carrying nodes off for tens or hundreds of metres. It is helpful to minimise human and food smells (particularly on the rope handles) when working in areas where this is a risk. Or, wipe down affected nodes with 50-80% methylated spirits if extensive handling can not be avoided.

The signal is able to penetrate plastic and terracotta planters and a thin layer of soil, but may struggle if the soil layer is too thick. **These nodes will not start recording without attaining a GPS lock** and repeated attempts will excessively drain the battery.

Jack Dent 86.1 254
255 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:
256
robert 86.2 257 * Place the node on the harvester gently, then firmly press it down onto the pins.
258 * 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.
259 * 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.
260 * 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!

284 There are essentially three main folders where relevant PROSPECT and PROJECT DATA is stored. Individual projects will be found as subfolders in these.

287
288 This folder stores SoloLite config files and parameters. Nothing too important stored here, you can always start over and re-create this.
289
290 === DCCDATA ===
291
292 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.
293
294 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)//
295
296 Then in the SoloLite software, go to tools > Reanalyze Seismic Data
297
298 === SOLODATA ===

There is a file "smartsoloconfig.xml" that needs to be present in "C:\SmartSoloApps SoloLite" (e.g. the main program directory) that dictates the leap second offset for the last two data ranges. Since 2017-01-01, this is 18 seconds. At some point in the next few years it will be 19 seconds.

337 If this file is missing, just create a new one structured like so, name it "smartsoloconfig.xml" and put it in your main program directory. Then, Reanalyze your data (tools > Reanalyze seismic data) and your data should have the correct time. You can also do this manually, if you want. The offset is 18 seconds precisely.
