Known bugs and miscellaneous inconveniences

1. Exchange channels and reduction

Exchange channels cannot be reduced by other channels defined. If one tries, no reduction will be done. However, the user will be left unnotified which is a flaw. This problem will be fixed in the next release.

2. Date of the 1st observation of a record for sampling intervals < 1 hour

In (very seldom) cases, where the sampling interval is less than 1 hours and the first observation does not exhibit a full hour , the minutes and seconds are upward adjusted to a full hour. This will affect the analysed phases of the non-linear and additional harmonics defined in *- nl+adconst.dat by an amount w = angular velocity at maximum .

Also the automatic change of the sampling interval to hourly sampling (parameter CHANGETOHI =1) does not work.

Workaround is to only analyse sampled data where the 1st observation is sampled at full hour. This problem will be fixed in the next release.

3. File *\commdat-v80\nonlinear.dat

The entries for K3 , 4MO7 and S74b have to be changed to:

NL 3 3 3 0 0 0 -3 0 0 0 0 0 45.12320004 0. 0. 0. 0. K3 = 4MK2O3 =TGP close to S3bbb

NL 7 7 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0101.99338136 0. 0. 0. 0. 4MO7 = 3MK7

NL 7 7 7 -3 0 0 -4 0 0 0 0 0105.16426672 0. 0. 0. 0. S74b

Also, the frequencies the *.ini files of dimension cpd have to be updated by taking the angular velocities in °/h, listed above , and deviding by 15:

NL+ADCONST= 3.008213 1.000000 .000000 K3 # shallow water tide wave **** TGP 4MK2O3 bbb

NL+ADCONST= 6.799559 1.000000 .000000 4MO7 # shallow water tide wave

NL+ADCONST= 7.010951 1.000000 .000000 S74b # shallow water tide wave 4b
