Configuration metadata includes details about the equipment used at the site to detect and record PIT tags. A new configuration sequence record is created when equipment is added or removed from the site and the period of time it was active. A configuration sequence without an End Date is currently active.

We completed an update at the antenna site today. We ran knew nodes and CANBUS for each antenna, along with new junction boxes to allow for easier diagnosing of issues in the future. We also installed a water temperature sensor and hooked up bio-probe to monitor temperature.  

7/14/2023 2:00:00 PM GMC

Checked the site today due to ongoing power issues in which the site has gone in an out of power. Batteries were both fine last time we were out two weeks ago and we've been able to remotely connect to the site. On todays visit, there was still power but one set of batteries was dead. We swapped that set of batteries with a new batteries. 

1/26/2023 10:00:00 AM General

Site visit to connect a raspberry pi for remote uploads. Raspberry pi was connected, but configuration was unsuccessful. Will be replacing the raspberry pi in the future. 

 

Also swept antenna 2 for a shed PIT tag. We were unsuccessful in finding the shed tag. 

6/15/2022 9:00:00 AM GMC

Conducted a site visit to swap batteries that run the virtual test tags and check on the antennas. Antenna 3 is currently down and due to high water yet we are unable to determine if it has become unplugged or damaged. It went down on June 5th, 2022. Antenna 4 is currently connected, but operating at a reduced capacity due to potentially being flooded. Antenna 2 is operating normally but has a pit tag stuck within its read range. This is causing quite a bit of interference, but won't be able to check for the tag until water levels drop. Antenna 1 has not been connected all spring due to issues with the antenna and high water. 

 

3/15/2022 3:00:00 PM SiteUp

Installed two new antennas at CCU to replace the two broken antennas. Ran new cabling to to fix a short in original site cables to antennas 3 & 4 (formally 1 & 2). 3 & 4 are fully tuned and operational.  Antennas 1 & 2 will be connected in the near future. 

1/12/2022 11:00:00 PM SiteDown

CCU site went at the end of the 12th. Connection was intermittent when jostling the cables, but no breaks in nodes or cables. Nodes have been pulled to clean up the connections points (1/26/22).  

1/12/2022 1:42:00 PM GMC

Pulled ANT 1 node due to it malfunctioning. There is a short period with any data entry due to the system being shut down. Ant 2 & 4 are working. 

1/12/2022 11:21:00 AM SiteUp

CCU is back up and running around 11:30am. ANT 1 node removed due to causing a short in the system. ANT 2 & 4 are up and running. 

11/17/2021 12:00:00 AM SiteDown

CCU Site went down around 12:30am. 

10/25/2021 3:00:00 PM SiteUp

Repaired broken antenna cables to antennas 1, 2, and 4.  Antenna 3 was damaged beyond repair and physically removed from the site.  The three remaining antennas (1, 2, and 4) were functional at about 4:00 p.m. on October 25th.

12/8/2020 1:30:00 PM SiteUp Antennas 3 and 4 are back online; the problematic antennas 1 and 2 have been disconnected, awaiting a more thorough cable repair or replacement, likely in spring or summer 2021.
11/16/2020 3:00:00 PM SiteDown Site down - cable repair failed, and continued to short out intermittently despite several more repair attempts over the next two weeks.
11/10/2020 1:00:00 PM SiteUp Cable repaired; antennas 1 and 2 are back online.
9/30/2020 3:00:00 PM SiteUp Antennas 3 and 4 back online. Antennas 1 and 2 are still down, awaiting cable repair.
9/7/2020 1:03:00 AM SiteDown Site down due to a short from a beaver-chewed cable.
3/13/2019 1:45:00 PM General Node 1 has been updated, it was installed and put online at about 1:45 p.m.
2/28/2019 1:00:00 PM General Updated Master Controller software to MC Application v1.6.4.S19 and CBG Firmware v1.6.5. Node 1 failed to update and subsequently went offline at about 1:30 p.m. The earliest anticipated date to fix the node is 11 March.
12/19/2018 5:00:00 PM SiteUp Site began operating on 12/19/2018.
