At the evening was clouds and high probability (50%) to thunderstorms. All night was hight humidity - between 84% and 91%; dewpoint diff. less than 5(C). Doesn't work time synchronizations (see in 'Problems') ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- Spectrograph collimation was checked but not adjusted. The collimation is currently set for a temperature of approximately 10 - 11 degrees C. While bringing the telescope up to 90 degrees to change the cartridge, the alt aborted at approximately 76 degrees at around 01:20Z. After an axis init, we issued another track command and everything appeared to work normally. Night: ------ No weather, no observations... 09:45Z - endNight finished. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6185 00:48Z 01:06Z 100 O -29.37 -24.86 44 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): Yes QA Procedures Done (y/n): Yes UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 39580, plate -9999 ------- 00:00 39580 0.0 bias ----- sequence 39581, plate 2193 ------- 00:54 39581 10.0 flat 00:56 39582 2.0 arc ----- sequence 39583, plate -9999 ------- 01:07 39583 0.0 bias 01:10 39584 0.0 bias ----- sequence 39585, plate 2193 ------- 01:19 39585 0.0 bias ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== DATA TAPE SUMMARY ===--- Goes: JL Stays: JL ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 22:55Z 71 28 11 262 (W) 2276 - 23:27Z 71 29 8 228 (SW) 2258 - 23:58Z 69 30 14 238 (WSW) 2426 - 00:31Z 66 30 7 80 (E) 2428 - 01:04Z 58 46 14 78 (ENE) 3775 - 01:36Z 57 47 14 82 (E) 2263 - 02:12Z 54 48 15 85 (E) 3244 - 02:45Z 54 47 18 75 (ENE) 3681 - 03:17Z 53 48 15 83 (E) 3612 - 03:49Z 53 48 14 90 (E) 3288 - 04:21Z 53 48 19 82 (E) 3207 - 04:53Z 52 48 19 74 (ENE) 3083 - 05:26Z 52 48 9 91 (E) 3011 - 05:58Z 51 47 11 81 (E) 3069 - 06:30Z 51 46 15 85 (E) 2928 - 07:02Z 51 46 13 90 (E) 2808 - 07:34Z 49 46 18 75 (ENE) 2922 - 08:06Z 49 46 15 73 (ENE) 2904 - 08:39Z 49 46 10 81 (E) 2767 - 09:11Z 49 45 13 75 (ENE) 2525 - 09:43Z 50 45 7 82 (E) 2561 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 09:40Z - Ventilation off.
