 +Custom acquisition software has been written and included in the Airborne Data Processing and Acquisition (ADPAA) software package. Command to acquire the data is: 
 + 
 +python3 ./GillSonic_CH601.py 
 + 
 +A Raspberry Pi 4 has been setup to acquire the data in CH601 with command: 
 + 
 +lxterminal --command="python3 /home/pi/ADPAA/src/scripts_python/GillSonic_CH601.py" 
 + 
 +that is stored in the file. 
 + 
 +~/bin/start_GillSonic_CH601. 
 + 
 +The Gill Sonic acquisition program start with pi user login via a line added to /etc/profile.  
 +==== Software Configuration (Windows 10 OS) ====
 The software being used for the Sonic Anemometer is WindView, which can be download from the [[http://www.gillinstruments.com/main/software.html|Manufacturer Web Site]]. System is setup with rdesktop using standard password. Computer has [[https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/openssh/openssh_install_firstuse|Open SSH server installed]] and [[https://www.pugetsystems.com/labs/hpc/How-To-Use-SSH-Client-and-Server-on-Windows-10-1470/|setup]] using "students" as username and standard password. Data is Stored in the c:\WindData directory. DeltaCopy has been [[http://www.aboutmyip.com/AboutMyXApp/DeltaCopyDownloadInstaller.jsp|downloaded]] and install, which enables rsync on Aircraft server to access the DeltaCopy software's Virtual Directory 'WindData' (has been added in DeltaCopy Server software) on the computer via [[https://pureinfotech.com/open-port-firewall-windows-10/|network port 873 that needs to be open]] in the Windows firewall. The software being used for the Sonic Anemometer is WindView, which can be download from the [[http://www.gillinstruments.com/main/software.html|Manufacturer Web Site]].
