Short summary

This work presents the progressive steps which led to the successful setup of such measurements at the new magnetic observatory in Choutuppal (CPL) of CSIR-NGRI, Hyderabad, India. Iterative tuning of the setup led to the generation of good quality data from 2016 onward. The processes of commissioning this setup in low-latitude conditions, with the aim of producing 1 s definitive data, and the characteristics of the data from this new instrument are presented here.
