RPi infrasound logger
Power
Powered using 12V 100Ah+ temporary battery with sunshield.
Localisation
Location of the instrument is NOT logged by the instrument itself. Do at least handheld GPS unit logging. AND if possible RTK relative positioning between the instruments at the same site.
Set up
- Remove transport padding from inside the box.
- Visually check cable connexions
- Feed 2.1 mm jack to inside the box.
- Place box under sunshield (South of the battery)
Plug in / Turn on
Plug in instrument box via 2.1 mm 12V jack to cigarette lighter plug.
Inside the box, screen will display its status:
- "GPS OK"

When you leave the screen should be on "logging".
