		At the conclusion of the test, data from each pressure logger was retrieved by downloading the data to a Psion HC-120 hand-held computer through the use of an RS232C cable that connects to the infra-red port on the logger (Figure 3) to the Psion HC-120 hand-held computer in the manner shown in Figure 4.

		Therefore, the measured pressure data from the tests, shown in Appendix D for the March 1998 test and in Appendix E for the August 1998 test, were averaged over one-hour time periods for use with model calibration.
