and were doing last minute checks, we noticed that plate 6325 was mapped to cartridge 0, instead of cart 9. After talking with Kaike, he suggested we call Joe H to come map the cart again for us (as cart 9 physically had plate 6325 on it). I sent an email to Dan L, John Parejko, Joe H, Kaike P and Peter F regarding the issue. If I recall correctly, this happened a year ago (an apogee plate was mapped to a boss cart number) and I thought the final outcome was to change the mapper software to prevent an improper cart from being selected when mapping. However when Joe and Kristina remapped this plate, Joe said that there was no confirmation of selecting the correct cartridge. -------------- 5:58Z - During science on plate 1, the guider failed for no reason. Moses' Guide window buttons ('expose','center up', 'guide', 'stop guiding') were all greyed out. Clicking 'guide' in my Guider window started guiding again. 05:58:01 client.v681.guider 30 gcamera w text="IMAGE READ FAILED: 4" 05:58:01 client.v681.guider 30 gcamera w exposureState="failed",0.0,0.0 05:58:01 client.v681.guider 30 gcamera f text="exposure failed: failed to read image from camera; please try gcamera reconnect before restarting the ICC" 05:58:01 CmdDone: client.v681.guider 30 gcamera expose time=5.000000 stack=1 05:58:01 APO.Moses.sop 949 guider w text="Failed to take exposure" 05:58:01 APO.Moses.sop 949 guider f guideState=failed 05:58:01 CmdDone: APO.Moses.sop 949 guider on time=5 10:38Z - Guider failed again during science on plate 7. Once again, Moses' Guide buttons were all greyed out. -------------- The Guider failed to "Center Up" for Moses when he was attempting to center up on the guide stars after gotoField for cart 6 (4:12Z), cart 1 (5:33Z), cart 9 (7:00Z). By this, I mean that after clicking "Center Up", the guider axes failed to turn on and the stars failed to move (3-4 exposures after he clicked "Center Up"). Both times, I hit "Center Up" in my Guide window on minidru and it worked for me (after about 2 exposures). Landru and Minidru are both using STUI 1.1.2b5 (non "_Mac" versions). After hitting "Center Up", he gets a message in the feedback bar just above the buttons in the Guider window: "scale on finished; warning: APO.Moses 304 guider w refractionBalance=1.0". -------------- Had a very weird glitch with the guider while doing science. The entire guider image went grey, there were maybe 2 stars in fibers (16 and 4) and the guide vectors we pointing in every direction.
