Transceiver 02 is showing elevated noise that won't tune out. I checked the antenna connectors and can't find any obvious cause for the elevated noise level. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No other problems to report. 10/21/2011 06:17 Rclark@b 06:LowExcCurrent,08:BadOscFreq: These alarms will be addressed during todays site visit. 10/19/2011 07:14 darren@b 06:LowExcCurrent: the threshold was adjusted to eliminate the alarm. The system will be adjusted as necessary during the next site visit. 10/01/2011 07:45 alan@bay A3:TestTagFailure: This was addressed during a site visit yesterday. 09/30/2011 13:02 Troy At site to investigate A3 and PCA access to the util. Found A3 to have a phase of 6, reduced phase to 2. PCA worked when I tried it...??? Radio connection may have been slow this am. No other problems to report. 09/30/2011 06:27 scottl@b A3:TestTagFailure: Unit in need of tune, appears that temperature is the cause. 09/28/2011 15:20 Alan A GMC was performed 9-28-2011. All transceivers were checked and tuned as necessary. Both PCs are within one second of atomic time. Outstanding files on PC2 were archived. No problems found. 09/12/2011 09:58 Rclark@b 0B:LowExcCurrent: Alarm caused by PSMFC personel during site GMC. 09/12/2011 08:28 Roger Performed site GMC on 9/12/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. The antenna current low alarm on transceiver 0B was lowered to 2.9A. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No problems to report. 09/12/2011 06:44 darren@b 0B:TestTagFailure: The system has drifted slightly out of tune and will be adjusted during the next site visit. 09/11/2011 06:38 rclark@b 0B:TestTagFailure: Transceiver appears to be out of tune.

All transceivers were checked and adjusted for optimal detection efficiency. Transceiver 0B was severely out of tune and needed to be tuned. I did have to raise the exciter voltage level to get back to the 4.1A previously noted. The water level in the North Ladder appears to have dropped about 5-6". No problems were discovered during the rest of the site visit. 08/29/2011 06:52 Troy@bay 0B:LowExcCurrent,0B:TestTagFailure: These alarms will be addressed today during a scheduled GMC. 08/26/2011 06:34 darren@b A1:TestTagFailure: No direct cause for this alarm. The timer tag failed during a status report. 08/12/2011 11:16 Roger Performed site GMC on 8/12/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. Couldn't find any obvious cause for the excessive noise on 08. When I turned the exciter voltage down on the transceiver, the noise went away. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No other problems to report. 08/12/2011 06:40 darren@b A1:TestTagFailure: This alarm will be addressed during the next site GMC. 08/10/2011 09:56 Rclark@b A1:TestTagFailure: No apparent cause for this one time error. 08/01/2011 07:20 Troy@bay A1:TestTagFailure: Noted. 07/28/2011 06:37 alan@bay A3:TestTagFailure: No apparent reason for this one-time alarm. PTAGIS Field Operations will continue to monitor. 07/26/2011 14:14 Roger Performed site GMC on 7/26/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No problems to report. 07/21/2011 09:36 Roger On-site visit on 7/21/2011 to investigate noise on left ladder coils 05 and 06. Noise levels were in the 20% to 80% range. Discovered a new HDX antenna installation directly attached to the downstream surface of weir 436. Contacted Mark Plummer and he will contact the U of I personnel to remove this antenna. After returning to the office, it appears that it may be impacting coils 07 and 08 also. 07/13/2011 13:31 Roger Performed site GMC on 7/13/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. PC1 and APC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No problems to report. 07/06/2011 12:34 Roger Performed site GMC on 7/6/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No problems to report. 07/01/2011 12:14 Roger Performed site GMC on 7/11/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No problems to report. 06/22/2011 12:05 Roger Performed site GMC on 6/22/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No problems to report. 06/14/2011 09:51 Roger Performed site GMC on 6/14/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No problems to report. 06/14/2011 07:34 alan@bay 01:LowExcCurrent: This alarm was generated by PTAGIS Field Operations personnel during a site visit. 06/11/2011 06:30 darren@b 01:LowExcCurrent,02:LowExcCurrent: These alarms were generated by PSMFC personnel during a site GMC. 06/10/2011 12:15 Alan File ICH11161.D1 contained high ASCII characters, most likely generated by PTAGIS Field Operations personnel during a site visit. The offending characters were removed, the file was renamed ICH11161.D9 and submitted to PTAGIS via email. 06/10/2011 11:13 Roger Performed site GMC on 6/10/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. Transceiver 01 has noise that spikes to 100% every couple of minutes and last about a minute. I tried replacing the transciever, checked the ladder for debris, and checked the connections at the antenna. There was nothing obvious. I did notice during a previous visit on 5/24/2011 that there was a person working on a box at the corner going into the fish ladder. This box appears to be connected to some sort of ultrasonic or radar type detector 15 to 20 feet above and pointing down at the water. It has an LED display on the side of the box that has a nummeric indication of 437.63. If this is a numeric indication of frequency in kHz, this could possibly be causing the issue. I went to the site Bio office to see if they knew of any changes. There wasn't anyone there. I will try to contact him later to see if he has any ideas of what might have changed. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No other problems to report. 06/08/2011 14:16 darren@b 0F:LowExcCurrent: The problem was addressed via PCA. The threshold was lowered to 2800mA. 06/07/2011 09:01 alan@bay 0F:LowExcCurrent: This alarm will be investigated during the next site visit. 06/07/2011 08:58 alan@bay A1:TestTagFailure: No apparent reason for this one-time alarm. PTAGIS Field Operations will continue to monitor. 06/02/2011 11:38 Roger Performed site GMC on 6/2/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. No problems to report. 06/01/2011 07:21 scottl@b 0F:LowExcCurrent: Will address during the next GMC scheduled for 6/2. 05/24/2011 14:08 Roger Performed GMC on 5/25/2011. Transceivers were checked for tune and adjusted as needed. Troy installed replacement utility PC. PC1 and PC2 are within 1 second of atomic time and each other. A considerable amount of time was spent by office staff to try and PCA into Util. Pocket Inet is having issue. RDP was successfull as was ping. PSMFC will wait until Pocket Inet resolves their issue before addressing the remote access via PCA to the Util machine. 05/18/2011 10:19 Darren A site GMC was performed today (5-18-11). All transceivers were checked and adjusted as necessary for tuning, noise, and detectability. The pc clocks are within 20 of atomic time and 1 second of each other. The files on PC2 were archived. No problems were discovered during this vist. 05/17/2011 07:28 Troy@bay 0F:LowExcCurrent: This will be addressed on the next site visit. 05/12/2011 11:06 scottl Performed site GMC, all transcievers were re-tuned and calibrated as necessary, no problems to report. Still no utility PC. 04/19/2011 10:35 Troy A site GMC was performed 04/19/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune and adjustments made where needed. 20+ min's were consummed trying to get the Utility machine to work properly. The computer had a message saying it was low on memory and would re-boot, which required a power down, the a check disk. Finally the unit came back up. I changed the advance power settings in hopes that this will allow PCA to work. I turned off automatic updates and ensured that the firewall was off. When time allows this computer should be gone through and things such as solitare should be removed (showed up as a recently used program?) More proof that the room is being used as a break room. No other problems to report. 04/12/2011 14:03 Troy Stopped into site to address 0D. A slight tuning adjustment was required. The exciter cable connection to the transceiver was wiggled which seemed to eliminate the occasional noise spike. 04/11/2011 12:12 Darren A site GMC was performed today (4-11-11). All transceivers were checked for tuning, noise, and detectability. The PC clocks are within 10 seconds of atomic time and each other. No problems were discovered during this visit. 04/06/2011 15:19 scottl Reinstalled a new utility computer. Verified that RS-Links was talking to the micrologics controller. Changed the DNS servers on PC1,2 and utility to the public addresses as requested by Todd. Added Roger C. and Nicole N. to list of users in PCA on all 3 PC's. Archived 2010 data from the archive directory. Installed pad lock on controller cabinet in the PIT tag room. Per Darrens previous event log entry regarding the clocks being off, set all PC's to adjust to the atomic time server. Verified that the clocks are NOT set to observe DST. 04/06/2011 13:49 Darren A site GMC was performed today (4-6-2011). All transceivers were checked for tuning, noise, and detectability. The PC clocks were 3 minutes and 2 minutes off of atomic time. They were adjusted to within 5 seconds of atomic time and each other. While adjusting the time on PC1 a PITtag was detected on PC1 and it appears that the tag took 3 minutes to travel the length of the 4 coils on the full flow when in fact it did not. 03/29/2011 07:36 Alan Site personnel report that the full flow watered up at ~1300PST 3-23-2011. 03/24/2011 14:44 Roger GMC was performed today on all tranceivers. Tuning was checked and adjusted as needed. Occcaional noise spikes were noticed on O2. This noise also propagated to O3 and O4. We will monitor this situation. No other problems to report. 03/24/2011 07:51 Troy@bay A1:TestTagFailure: This will be investigated today during a scheduled GMC. 03/20/2011 07:27 Troy@bay A1:TestTagFailure: Currently de-watered, clearing TASS. 03/08/2011 10:24 Dave Troy spoke with Mark Plummer and confirmed that the South ladder watered up at around 10AM on March 2. 03/07/2011 11:25 troy_hum TEST 03/07/2011 11:22 Troy A site GMC was performed 03/07/2011. All transceivers were checked for tune except for the FF which is de-watered. No problems were found with the transceivers. The board up-stream and down-stream of the orfice antenna's were checked to see if they were seated. With no guide line as to where they should be I stepped on each one to see if there was any give, there was none. The PLC did not generate an email when the left ladder watered up so I investigated why. It was found that the radio gateway was in error state and was not communicating with either node (left ladder or right). I reset the gateway and waited for it to re-establish comm's with the nodes. Once it did it generated the correct emails. I also sent a test email to ensure all was working properly. I'll be contacting the manufacture to see if they can shed any light on why the gateway was in the state it was in so that steps can be taken to ensure this doesn't happen again. 03/07/2011 11:16 troy_hum LEFT (SOUTH) LADDER LEVEL ACTIVE 03/07/2011 11:13 troy_hum Email Test, please do not respond 03/07/2011 11:03 troy_hum RIGHT (NORTH) LADDER LEVEL ACTIVE 03/07/2011 10:59 troy_hum LEFT (SOUTH) LADDER LEVEL HIGH OR LT DISCONNECTED 03/07/2011 10:59 troy_hum RIGHT (NORTH) LADDER LEVEL HIGH OR LT DISCONNECTED 03/07/2011 10:54 troy_hum RIGHT (NORTH) LADDER RADIO COMMUNICATIONS ACTIVE 03/07/2011 10:54 troy_hum LEFT (SOUTH) LADDER RADIO COMMUNICATIONS ACTIVE 03/07/2011 07:22 darren@b A1:TestTagFailure: This alarm will be investigated during the next site visit.

PSMFC will also investigate why there was not automated email sent when the ladder was returned to service. 02/23/2011 07:29 Troy@bay 07:TestTagFailure,08:TestTagFailure: The left ladder is currently de- watered which is causing these alarms. 02/19/2011 07:37 darren@b 07:TestTagFailure,08:TestTagFailure: The South ladder (which these antennas are associated with) is currently out of service. 02/17/2011 07:11 darren@b 07:TestTagFailure: The South Ladder is currently our of service. 02/16/2011 07:24 darren@b 08:TestTagFailure: This ladder (South) is currently out of service. 02/15/2011 07:43 Darren The timer tag reports indicated that power on the North Ladder was removed from the transceivers yesterday for approx 6 hrs. This was confirmed by site Bio Mark Plummer. There is currently work being performed on the Navigational Lock 02/15/2011 07:28 darren@b 04:LowExcCurrent,07:TestTagFailure,08:TestTagFailure,A1:TestTagFailure: Clearing TASS.
