        Hi all,

        I am trying to relocate my data loggers to new locations to monitor water quality at a restoration site. These data loggers have been used in the past at separate project sites and I have several questions about updating these to the new sites.

        1. How can I update the locations? – is this something that needs to be done on Monitor My Watershed or directly through the data logger?
        2. We purchased new SIM cards (at the advise of someone from Stroud Environmental), once they are activated, is it as simple as inserting the SIM card to get it to start sharing data with Monitor my Watershed?
        3. When I tested the data loggers, they were recording data, but the time and date were incorrect. From my understanding, these will update automatically when the data loggers are connected via cell service. Is this correct?
        4. Is there any other needed formatting requirements for the data loggers that I am not thinking of?

        Thank you in advance for your help. If there is any documentation that covers these questions please feel free to let me know, I’ve poked around myself but can’t find anything specific.
