Week 3 Day 3

We started out the day in Discovery Park completing the sensor tests and doing one last calibration of the pH and DO. We tried tinkering with the temperature sensor a little bit but the system is pretty "black box" so we ended up just leaving it alone.






Having finally beat the sensors into submission...errrr... completing calibration, we boxed everything up and took a trip over to EESAT. We set up in the wet lab and got all of our probes connected and in the water.




Once we had that set up we got the laptop booted up, connected the coordinator and started running our labview program to collect the data. We monitored it for about a half hour to make sure everything was ticking along smoothly.






So, progress! We are actually doing some tests now instead of just tinkering. That is good news. We spent what was left of the day discussing the presentation for Friday and who would be talking about what.
