Shipping Mark5 modules to the Washington correlator
NOTE: In the instructions below, replace XX with yg for Yarragadee and ke for Katherine.
Print a module experiment barcode
In a pcfsXX terminal window do:
cd /usr2/log
drudg r4497ke.log all R C
where R and C are the row and column numbers of the next label to go in the printer.
Place the barcode and a red circle on the front of the module
Screw the shipping covers on the module
Pack the module in the foam within a carton
Prepare a DHL Airwaybill.
On the DHL airwaybill the important details are:
account number 963246084
USNO address details as before including name and phone number
Value USD$200
mass 10 Kg
dimensions 48 X 34 X 29 cm
Repair/Return
ref 318-ObsCodeXX where ObsCode is the observation code (e.g. R1498) and XX is the station ID. So a valid ref for Yarragadee and experiment R1498 would be 318-r1498yg
your name, signature.
Katherine only:
put a sheet on top, covering the airwaybill saying, “DHL Express 301 Bagot Road Coconut Grove. Hold for collection”.
Prepare Customs Declarations:
If you use the last Word document for Washington as a template, you would need to change:
filename
date
experiment name
airwaybill number
Save and print 5 copies. Sign 3 of them and put them in a clear pocket. Put the airwaybill in on top.
1 unsigned copy of the declaration goes in the box, on top of the foam before closing the box. Last copy for your records.
Please email the airwaybill number to Brett. A scan would be perfect if you can.
Please update the inventory of module VSNs (eg usn-0030/2000/1024) on the Google doc. Here is the link:
