OOI RSN Principal Engineer Mike Harrington takes a look at the element management system (EMS) that monitors junction-box power and communications. The EMS provides current, voltage, and temperature information from the node in real time and is vital to monitoring the health and safety of the instruments. Alarms are generated when a parameter moves out of range so that corrective actions may be taken. --Photo by Mitchell Elend, UW

Overview of the system under test. On the bench is the open-frame prototypte of the low-power junction box. To the right is an osciloscope for signal monitoring. The junction box is connected to the three first-article instruments submerged in freshwater in the tank beneath the bench. ---Photo by Mitchell Elend, UW
