Subject: 2.5m obslog 20060616 (MJD 53903) Date: Sat, 17 Jun 2006 05:20:08 -0600 (MDT) From: observer@apo.nmsu.edu APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday June 16, 2006 (MJD 53903) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Days: Dan Long Night: Mike Harvanek Jurek Krzesinski Shannon Watters Eric Neilsen, Steve Kent - on the phone. ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Shake/Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Done some imaging, but the seeing was bad. One plate done (1813) and got good signal on two others. Telescope pointing looks good. dust integrated counts are low: 26483 Problems: --------- tccmon, iop, stripe number: see the log. tcc - too many open session limit, can we increase that limit up to 30-40? ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- No problems with the afternoon check. Spectro focus was checked and adjusted for the cooler temperatures expected tonight. It is now set for a still rather warm 16 C. 01:50Z Doors Open, Fans On. Night: ------ 02:55Z cart 2 plt 1813 on the telescope. SOGTF. 02:57Z while guiding, suddenly startMon (SAOIMAGE) crashed on us, the error message was cut and pasted to the problem section. Plate done. 04:00Z Imager mounted .... and clouds arrived. Since it's still shake we try to test the imager anyway. Looks like we still have the problem with 290 stripe reported last dark run: im> im> scanStripe 290 N -mu 277 im> goDrift Flavor of this run (science, bias, calibration, engineering, ignore, help) []: science Stripe, Strip (e.g, 22,N or SS,N) [290,N]: Please provide a one line comment [] tcc thinks it's 1078 Input stripe and strip do not match actual telescope pointing.
