Information provided by: Shipboard Meteorological System MetAcq Operator’s Manual Shipboard Technical Support Revision 1.26a 24 May 2003. 

Each data point has a 2 character ID to identify it.  There is also a third character to help clarify the type of data.  E.g. +25.3,AT0 (air temperature, calibrations not applied).

Each data point has a 2 character ID to identify it. 

There is also a third character to help clarify the type of data.  

E.g. +25.3,AT0 (air temperature, calibrations not applied).

 

0 - Calibration coefficients not applied

1 - Calibration coefficients applied in Sensor Module

2 - Calibration coefficients applied in Acquisition computer

3 - Calibration coefficients applied in Sensor Module and Acquisition computer

7 - Data Out of Range

8 - Data is Emulated (Not Real)
