---- Observing Plan ----
18 Nov 2012  56250.0  0.41  01:11 12:26  22:02 09:19  APOGEE until 04:08 (3.3 h),
then BOSS (8.3 h)
---- Observing Summary ----
High humidity. Never open.
---- Observing Log ----
Afternoon
---------
Checked software/actors,
21:54:48  took APOGEE evening cals,
21:56:22 took BOSS bias and regular dark,
    and guider dark,
gathered mirror numbers,
cart 10 was mounted
focused the spectrographs (see Problems section),
1) hartmann ff=151169,70
   need to move  r1, and r2 on the same value +725, and b1, b2 were in foc
   moved r1,r2
2) hartmann ff=151171,72
   need to move  r1 on -896, and r2 -982, and b1, b2 were out of foc
   moved r1, r2 back
3) hartmann ff=151173,74
COLLIMATE: Predict blue camera ring movement of   -5.2 degrees for spectro-1
COLLIMATE: Predict blue camera ring movement of    5.9 degrees for spectro-2
     Nov, 2012: Set B1 focus ring to -5 deg, B2 to +7 deg (+/- 2  are okay)
COLLIMATE: Issue command: "boss moveColl spec=sp1 a=-42 b=-42 c=-42"
COLLIMATE: Issue command: "boss moveColl spec=sp2 a=0 b=0 c=0"

     sp2:   31975,   32129,   32841;
Median spectrographs temperatures:
     Tsp1= 8.1,  Tsp2= 7.7;
     Outside air temperature= 3.9;
22:19:33 took a set of BOSS cals - all in spec
Telescope was checked, all system worked properly.
Ventilation delayed due to clouds, light rain, and rising humidity.
Night:
----
  High humidity kept us closed for the whole night.
  12:10Z started APOGEE morning calibs.
---- Telescope Status ----
Never opened.
No interlocks bypassed
