1BMSDirect MS-5608/22/202313:24:0008/22/202315:46:00Due to BMS south sci-tec failure, The following BMS instruments were not pointing at the sun during this time: Direct CHP-1, sNIP, MS-57, CUVA2, CUVB2, TUVR; and the following instruments were un-shaded: Diffuse 8-48, CM22-2, PIR. However automatic substitution was enabled for the CHP1-1, sNIP, 8-48, and CM22-2.
2BMSS18015.22Direct MS-5607/21/202315:00:0007/24/202306:20:00MS-57 is out of alignment during this time. Data is low/erratic and should not be used. All DNI instruments on tracker were adjusted on 7/24.
3BMSDirect MS-5608/21/202205:21:0008/21/202210:48:00Due to BMS south sci-tec failure, The following BMS instruments were not pointing at the sun during this time: Direct CHP-1, sNIP, MS-57, CUVA2, CUVB2, TUVR; and the following instruments were un-shaded: Diffuse 8-48, CM22-2, PIR. Since the middle sci-tec was down (due to collision with south scitec); data was corrected on 9/14/2022 by subsituting Diffuse 8-48 and CM22-2 with RSR Diffuse, then recalating Direct CHP1-1 and sNIP using BMS Global CMP22 and RSR Diffuse.
4BMSDirect MS-5608/20/202211:56:0008/20/202223:59:00Due to BMS south sci-tec failure, The following BMS instruments were not pointing at the sun during this time: Direct CHP-1, sNIP, MS-57, CUVA2, CUVB2, TUVR; and the following instruments were un-shaded: Diffuse 8-48, CM22-2, PIR. However automatic substitution was enabled for the CHP1-1, 8-48, and CM22-2.
5BMSDirect MS-5606/22/202216:53:0006/23/202207:17:00Due to BMS south sci-tec failure, The following BMS instruments were not pointing at the sun during this time: Direct CHP-1, sNIP, MS-57, CUVA2, CUVB2, TUVR; and the following instruments were un-shaded: Diffuse 8-48, CM22-2, PIR. However automatic data substitution was enable for the CHP1-1, 8-48, and CM22-2.
6BMSDirect MS-5605/18/202013:03:0012/15/202119:31:00DATA CORRECTED on 12/17/2021: Irradiances were increased by 0.675% due to revised BORCAL report for all BMS shortwave radiometers calibrated in 2020 and 2021.
7BMSP12022Direct MS-5605/24/201808:00:00The MS-56 has a large positive offset in the data. Channel was shorted on 5/28/2018 on instrument platform and it tested okay. Problem is therefore related to instrument or instrument cable.
8BMSDirect MS-5610/09/201714:50:0010/09/201716:00:00MS-56 and sNIP are out of alignment during this time. Data is low and should not be used.
9BMSP12022Direct MS-5604/27/201500:00:0005/11/201513:30:00The MS-56 has a large offset in the data. Problem started after rain showers. Instrument was removed from service on April 30 @ 14:45 MST for troubleshooting. Instrument was later returned to service on May 6 @ 16:03 MST (this time bypassing the AM25T solid state multiplexer), however due to insufficient sun the necessary shims could not be added to set alignment, data will read about 100 W/m^2 too low until the shims were added on May 11 @ 13:30 MST. Original problem is assumed to have been caused by the MS-56 high impedance (5 KOhm) in conjunction with the use of the solid state multiplexer.
