Data Downloading and Backups

Data Downloading & Backups from RT130's

RT130 data is downloaded from the CF cards to .zip files using the NEO program.  The NEO program is included in the PASSOFT software package and can be started from the command line or from the NEO button on EPIC field computers. After the data is downloaded it should be reviewed to make sure that it is complete and two backup copies should be made.
 

Data Downloading & Backups from Q330's

This page provides instructions for downloading Balers using the EzBaler program and reviewing the State of Health (SOH) data using PQL. EzBaler is the best option for downloading data from multiple Balers at one time. Known problems are: it will sometimes fail to connect to a Baler (just try again) and it will hang up if it encounters corrupted data.  These instructions are written specifically for use with a PASSCAL MacBook field computer, but in general apply to other platforms as well.

The data downloading is in two parts.  The first part is downloading the SOH data which contains the low sample rate seismic data and systems data to be used for doing field Quality Assurance (QA) for the station.  The second part is downloading all of the seismic data for archiving.
