No data. TELESCOPE STATUS: ================= Doors open and Fans on: Opened: Closed: Telescope at stow with cartridge 4 on. DIMM: ===== not functional INTERLOCKS: =========== none bypassed SOFTWARE USED: ============== IOP/SOP: v3_50_3 Watcher: v2_9_0 MCP: v5_2_1 AstroDa: 14_36 TCC: 2.5.3 TPM: v2_3_7 AstroDa: 14_36 tccmon: v1_6 sdssProcedures: v1_20 WEATHER SYNOPSIS (see below for hourly data): ============================================= Lightening on the NE and clouds prevented us from opening. The humidity ~50 to 60% all night and the dust was around 2500 for the second half of the night. GENERAL COMMENTS (see Problems below for details): ================================================== Dan checked to see if he can repeat the AZ fiducial at 121 to read ~450counts different depending on directions, but was not able to. Hopefully what he saw last night was a one-time thing. We took no data tonight due to poor weather. Dan played with the "flavor" we get when we do "goDrift", which is why you see the three runs recorded in the section below. These runs were all taken in the doghouse. endNight -doTpm ran successfully. Since Eric's script to backup MCP/TPM files are now working, we will not send out the tapes written by "endNight -doTpm". tapes to stay:JL4176, 4177 DATA ACQUISITION (see IOP/SOP output below): =========================================== IMAGING: -------- Run Stripe Strip Flavor Lambda Last Frame # Begin End ------------------------------------------------------------------ 2405 100 O bias -50.58 -49.22 23 2406 100 O ignore 14.70 15.23 18 2407 100 O science 15.57 16.13 18 SPECTROSCOPY: ------------- UT Exp Time flavor comment =============================================== ------ sequence 10279, plate 608 ------- 22:05 10279 0.0 bias {{}} ------ sequence 10280, plate -9999 ------- 23:25 10280 0.0 bias {{}} MIRRORS: ======== Time dpTemp dewPt Press TmpOut HumOut Windd Winds 17:12 62.8 34.9 21.62 35 131.6 12.7 17 PRIMARY: -------- Scale: 1.000000 MIGS TONIGHT NOMINAL Axial A: 0.0720 0.0710 Axial B: -0.0970 -0.0980 Axial C: 0.0620 0.0610 Trans D: 4.1800 4.1800 Lateral E: 1.9365 1.9365 Lateral F: 0.4370 0.4370 GALILS Commanded: 5400. -3700. 900. -200. 31550. 30650.
