Subject: 2.5m obslog 20130526 (MJD 56439) From: doravetz@apo.nmsu.edu Date: Mon, 27 May 2013 11:42:16 +0000 (UTC) APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Sunday May 26, 2013 (MJD 56439) ---- Observing Team ---- Audrey Oravetz Dan Oravetz ---- Observing Plan ---- 26 May 2013 56439.0 0.83 03:23 10:38 12:39 19:55 APOGEE 7.9 hours ---- Observing Summary ---- Partly cloudy skies, clear skies, and then mostly clear skies with cirrus. Variable seeing. Observed the following: Cart. 3, 5640, 120+45_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 5 faint fibers in flat Cart. 6, 5672, 000+60_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 3 faint fibers in flat Cart. 4, 5664, M107_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 5 faint fibers in flat Cart. 7, 6928, K08_073+19_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 3 faint fibers in flat Cart. 5, 6934, K10_079+12_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 2 faint fibers in flat Cart. 9, 6098, K05_080+14_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 2 faint fibers in flat Cart. 8, 6082, 083+00_A - 1XABBA @ 500s each; 1 faint fiber, 1 missing in flat We experienced the same intermittent misbehavior with APOGEE archiving as we did last night. Archiving eventually failed for ten consecutive exposures at which time we restarted apogeeql. After the restart archiving resumed, but the exposures which had not been archived before the restart were not retroactively archived; only exposures subsequent to the apogeeql restart were archived. Exposures, 08770043, *57, and *62-71 are still unarchived. All exposures appear in /data-ql/data/56439. See Log body for details. We also found that on 56432 the internal flat from the morning calibration sequence only shows apR-a-08700081.apz and apR-c-08700081.apz as being archived, there is not an apR-b-08700081.apz file. Someone may want to go back and archive that exposure. It appears that tonight marks the third occurrence of inconsistent APOGEE archiving spanning the last week. Audrey's Guide window (running STUI 1.3b7 on Minidru) became unresponsive during acquisition of the first field. A STUI disconnect/reconnect resolved the problem, but it's still unclear why only her Guide window was unresponsive. ---- Observing Log ---- Afternoon ========= Checked STUI actors, checked mirror numbers, checked upper and lower telescope enclosure, checked fiducials, cleaned APOGEE gang connector and took APOGEE evening cals, verified APOGEE archiving, took a few BOSS biases to verify aliveness, took guider dark. Mounted cart. 3 for the beginning of the night. 00:55Z - Started ventilating. Night ===== 02:11Z - Opened to partly cloudy skies. Force-filled BOSS spectrographs. Checked fiducial crossings and balance. 02:27Z - Darks. 02:27:16 apogee.expose=apRaw-08770008, 10, A, Dark 02:29:03 apogee.expose=apRaw-08770009, 10, A, Dark Cart. 3, 5640, 120+45_A *********************** 02:31Z - GSOGTF. Partly cloudy. Seeing 1.5-1.8" FWHM. Audrey's STUI Guide window became unresponsive as we were setting up on the field. She was able to adjust the guider exposure time and enable Center Up, but after that she could not toggle the Axes, Focus, or Scale corrections. When she tried to click Stop Guiding that did not respond either. She was successful in changing the secondary focus using a different window within the same STUI session, so it seems that whatever was going on was strangely specific to her Guide window. After disconnecting and reconnecting her STUI session her Guide control was re-enabled. 02:43Z - Science. 2XABBA @ 500s each. 02:43:41 apogee.expose=apRaw-08770010, 47, A, Object 02:52:05
