Imaging if possible. ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Imaging on three strips under good seeing. One cartridge completed. Overall, we can't complain. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- We started with imaging tonight. The 3.5-m repored subarcsec seeing at twilight. Everything looked promising except for a patch of clouds that swept over at the end of twilight. We waited for them to pass over. The clouds were off to the east horizon at then end of twilight, so we started with the bright standards test of BD+17 4708. The resulting frames were stored in /data/photo/optics/52225. We also observed BD+28 4211. The frames are in the same directory. We followed these calibration tests with science scans on 82 N and S and 32 S. The Moon rose before we could complete 32 S. Details are in the imaging section. Seeing was not quite as good as last night, but was still "good" by seeingRun standards. We then switched to spectroscopy. There was only one plate available to us (565), and we completed it. Atsuko was flying tonight using Landru. She uses the same window manager as Steph, and her PGPLOT windows showed colors, whereas last night Steph's didn't. We have some sleuthing to do on this problem. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Stripe Flavor Lambda Last Begin End Frame Comments ------------------------------------------------------------------ 2702 100 O bias 127.52 134.43 60 bias on telescope 2703 82 N ignore 126.52 134.21 65 2704 BD +17 scan .

Run 2703: A set-up scan during the tail end of twilight. (Check focus, etc.). Run 2704: BD +17 bright standards scan. Files saved in /data/photo/optics/52225 Run 2705: BD +28 bright standards scan. Files saved in /data/photo/optics/52225. Note that a check of best focus was NOT done for this scan. We assumed the same focus as the last drift to determine the focus offset for this star. It should be very close to correct, as the focus loop was stable during the BD+17 drift. Run 2706: 82N, but incorrect startLambda. Run 2707: Entered science before Skippy returned results. Started over. (In terms of new efficiency standards, we may not have had to do this). Run 2708: 82 N. Started drift at 19:13. Start of science at frame 25. 22:27 end of science at frame 267. 22:36 end of ramp down at frame 279 Seeing was good throughout the run. Median ranged from 1.1 - 1.3 asec. Run 2709: 82 S. No focus tweak needed. Skippy required no rotator adjust. 22:31 start of drift. 22:51 start of science, frame 25 01:14 end of science, frame 265 01:22 end of ramp-down, frame 278.

Run 2711: 01:45 frame 18, end of ramp-up 01:52 frame 31, start of science We had a wrong num of pix problem that shut down id 1-2 and id 3-2. This problem has happened before, but the PR for it was closed. we reopened it. 03:27 frame 191 lambda -35, end of science, though not the end of the strip. 03:36 frame 205 lambda -33 end of ramp.

Did you lose some lately? Have you created any new directories that have permissions set wrong?

I have pasted a sample of the many error messages received. I leave it to the reader to get the complete set from the murmur log. The error messages were similar for the three nodes. This is a known problem. A PR had been filed previously, and closed. We reopened it. dsc E trcErr WRONG num of pix?? for (sr<<16)|ccd:0x00000001 rowIdx:634 (dsc_E_trcErr WRONG num of pix?? for (sr<<16)|ccd:0x00000001 rowIdx:634 : Nov 12 02:37:28 MST ) dsc E trcErr vci buffer ovrflw error (0x2) (dsc_E_trcErr vci buffer ovrflw error (0x2) : Nov 12 02:37:28 MST ) dsc E trcErr (throttle) WRONG num of pix?? for (sr<<16)|ccd:0x00000000 ro (dsc_E_trcErr (throttle) WRONG num of pix?? for (sr<<16)|ccd:0x00000000 ro : Nov 12 02:37:28 MST ) dsc E trcErr Buffered lines too high, trace buffer frozen (dsc_E_trcErr Buffered lines too high, trace buffer frozen : Nov 12 02:37:28 MST ) -------------------------------- At 02:39 the above problem caused the archiver to choke and shut down id 1-2 and id 3-2. id 2-2 somehow survived. The "1" nodes continued to archive.

Atsuko tracked it to the SOP PGPLOT and restarted it. All was well after that, although Atsuko claims she was frustrated by it... Handpaddle/Lift: ================ At the end of the night, while putting the last cartridge on, the handpaddle's jerky motion seemed to be much worse. The next night's observers may want to consider switching to the old paddle. It is in the enclosure cabinet near the imager cart air-fill hose.
