Click Upload; the Status bar at the bottom of
SeatermUSB – SBE39plus-IM displays the upload progress.
A.
SeatermUSB – SBE39plus-IM sends the data upload command, based
on your selection of upload range in the Upload Data dialog box, and
writes the data to the upload .xml file.
B.
From the information in the .xml file, SeatermUSB – SBE39plus-IM
creates a .asc data file that is compatible with Plot39 for plotting the
data. The .asc file is placed in the same directory as the .xml data file
and has the same name (but different extension).
8.
Ensure all data has been uploaded by reviewing the data using Plot39
(with the .asc file).
9.
Remove the USB cable from the internal connector.
10.
Install new desiccant (see
Replacing AA Cells and Desiccant
in
Section 5:
Maintenance and Calibration
).
11.
Reinstall the end cap and electronics in the housing:
A.
Remove any water from the O-rings and mating surfaces in the
housing with a lint-free cloth or tissue. Inspect the O-rings and
mating surfaces for dirt, nicks, and cuts. Clean as necessary.
Apply a light coat of O-ring lubricant (Parker Super O Lube) to
O-ring and mating surfaces.
B.
Carefully fit the end cap into the housing, pushing in until the first O-
ring is seated.
C.
Using a wrench, screw the end cap into the housing.
Note
:
See Plot39 Help for details.
Notes
:
To prepare for re-deployment after all
data has been uploaded:
1. Click
Clear memory
. If memory is
not cleared, new data will be stored
after the last recorded sample,
preventing use of the entire
memory capacity.
2. Select
one
of the following to define
the 39
plus
-IM response when the
USB cable is removed:
•
Do not start sampling
- put the
39
plus
-IM in quiescent (sleep)
state. Quiescent current is only
60 microAmps, so the AA cells can
be left in place without significant
loss of capacity.
•
Start sampling on USB cable
disconnect
- begin autonomous
sampling.
•
Start sampling at
- set a date and
time for autonomous sampling to
start.
3. Make any desired setup changes.
4. Click the
Update Configuration
button.
CAUTION:
Do not use Parker O-Lube, which
is petroleum based; use only
Super O-Lube.
