Everything else checked out fine. Night ============ We had some clouds in the area at twilight, so we started with spectro. 02:33Z Cart 03, plate 1682 (chunk85). As last night, we had to do an "A= -6" offset to find the guide stars after goToField. Plate was declaerd done with three exposures. 04:18Z Cart 02, plate 1688 (chunk86). We were getting more clouds during this time. Field was found with an Fk5 and the usual -6" offset. Then dust became a problem. 04:40Z Closed because of a dust count of 7K. 09:45Z Dust remained a problem all night, so we went home. Misc watcher errors are posted in the problems section. endNight finished and was happy. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4684 22:40Z 23:05Z 100 O -45.16 -39.07 55 ignore ---=== IMAGING RUN DETAILS ===--- ---=== SKIPPY RESULTS ===--- Run Frame nFrames stars muErr muRms nuErr nuRms rot az el --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== LTMATCH RESULTS ===--- Run Field nFields alt az nGood rowMean rowSig colMean colSig rot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== SPECTROSCOPY DATA SUMMARY ===--- Summary Checked (y/n): y QA Procedures Done (y/n): y UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 27236, plate -9999 ------- 22:40 27236 0.0 bias ----- sequence 27237, plate 1650 ------- 23:33 27237 2.1 arc 23:35 27238 2.1 arc 23:43 27239 10.0 flat 23:45 27240 2.0 arc 00:39 27241 2.1 arc 00:41 27242 2.1 arc 01:08 27243 2.1 arc 01:10 27244 2.1 arc ----- sequence 27245, plate -9999 ------- 01:19 27245 0.0 bias ----- sequence 27247, plate 1682 ------- 03:14 27247 10.0 flat 03:16 27248 2.0 arc ----- sequence 27247, plate 1682 ------- 03:16 27248 2.0 arc 03:35 27249 900.1 target 03:59 27250 1200.1 target 04:13 27251 660.1 target ----- sequence 27252, plate 1688 ------- 04:31 27252 10.0 flat 04:33 27253 2.0 arc ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 03:27Z 3 1682 106.01 -0.0006 65.72 0.0039 -90.85 -0.0068 1.000420 04:02Z 3 1682 106.81 -0.0013 72.83 0.0036 -84.89 -0.0069 1.000380 ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== DATA TAPE SUMMARY ===--- Goes: JL7660 Stays: JL7661 ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 03:27Z 3 1682 1.00042 -4146 -2429 -135 106 65.6 17.1 11 235 gdr 1.5 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 22:31Z 72 28 10 226 (SW) 1345 - 23:03Z 72 27 15 247 (WSW) 1229 - 23:35Z 76 28 10 193 (SSW) 1322 - 00:06Z 72 27 17 204 (SSW) 1233 - 00:40Z 72 26 16 237 (WSW) 1316 - 01:12Z 69 24 15 236 (SW) 1210 - 03:05Z 63 22 12 221 (SW) 2059 - 03:37Z 63 22 6 196 (SSW) 1996 - 04:07Z 62 22 10 199 (SSW) 1888 - 04:38Z 60 29 10 168 (SSE) 6598 - 05:10Z 58 35 14 135 (SE) 4170 - 05:42Z 57 37 10 130 (SE) 4362 - 06:14Z 57 37 15 148 (SSE) 4134 - 06:47Z 58 38 17 146 (SE) 2764 - 07:19Z 57 39 15 152 (SSE) 2237 - 07:51Z 58 37 16 168 (SSE) 3477 - 08:23Z 58 35 20 170 (S) 4222 - 08:55Z 58 36 13 178 (S) 5127 - 09:28Z 58 35 8 186 (S) 4404 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 02:00Z Doors and louvers opened, fans on. 02:10Z Enclosure off 04:40Z Enclosure on, fans off, doors and louvers closed because of dust.
