Cleared around 9:00Z. BOSS OBSERVING: Cart 17 (Plate 6712) -- DONE! Cart 18 (Plate 6730) -- not done Lost 10 minutes to SOP running two extra goToField sequences on Cart 17. Please see Observing Log for more details. APOGEE TWILIGHT OBSERVING: Cart 5 (Plate 6899) - 1xAB (no missing fibers; faint fibers = #177,248) Note to day crew: We did not have any trouble with cart bay lift last night or tonight. It is operating smoothly. ---- 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, took guider dark. Focused BOSS spectrographs using cart. 10: Median spectrographs temperatures: Tsp1= 10.9, Tsp2= 10.1 Outside air temperature= 11.7 21:54Z - The 'collimate' script was hanging on SOS3. Tried multiple attempts to run it on the most recent Hartmann set, but to no avail. Will wait a little while and try again (that worked yesterday when we experienced the same hanging behavior). COLLIMATE: Camera b1 appears to be IN-FOCUS (|mean| 0.15 pix) COLLIMATE: Predict blue camera ring movement of 3.6 degrees for spectro-2 COLLIMATE: Camera r1 appears to be IN-FOCUS (|mean| 85.01 [above 0.50] --------------------------------------------------------------- Plate 6712 is COMPLETE!
