 /06/17 Rack in CH601 was rearranged to fit new transmitter assembly. The UPS was moved up to directly below the RCP8, and the new Transmitter assembly was installed below that. A few mounting brackets were removed that were not put back, and the old Azimuth/Elevation servo controller was removed. It was found that the system of wires that adapt the older connections to newer equipment has live exposed wires. A better solution or rewiring is being considered as part of the renovations.
+/06/18 Some cable management was done to organize and understand the connections between the cabinet, the RCP8, the Azimuth/Elevation servo control, and radar1 and 2. It has been noted that the current RCP8 setup uses several homemade splitters and adapters to change the cord from the cabinet into VGA plugs that the RCP8 can accept. Because of this configuration, it may work best to continue to use the green cabinet and funnel new systems through the old cables.
