Intermittant clouds and partly clear. We had one SP1LN2 fill warning during the cartridge change demo at the beginning of the night, but we were able to resolve it by doing a force-fill. Monitored pressure levels of SP1 and SP2 all night - all okay. For details, please see the observing log. Thanks for the leftovers! ---- Observing Log ---- Afternoon: ---------- --Test Actors, 23:17:18 - OK -- Status, 2013-09-19, 23:20:44 Enclosure = closed; cwPositions = 483 484 486 486; MCP instr = 7 (mounted); Guider cart= 7, plate= 5550, side= A (loaded); ---------- motorPosition sp1: 24259, 23957, 23810; sp2: 25486, 25066, 25967; ---------- Median spectrographs temperatures: Tsp1= 15.7, Tsp2= 14.8; Outside air temperature= 10.4; ---------- Boss CCD Temp : sp1r0= -124.2 (-126.6); sp1b2= -99.6 (-100.0); sp2r0= -134.0 (-134.8); sp2b2= -100.4 (-100.0); sp1LN2: 10.0; sp2LN2: 10.0; ---------- gcameraTemp= -40.1 (-40.0) gcamera simulating = Off Rel.

Delaying opening due to radar returns. 01:46Z We did a demo of a cartridge swap with the LCO infrastructure participants. After completed a cartridge change, we received a warning for SP1LN2. 01:38:14 .boss 81993 boss w SP1LN2Fill=FAULT!!! 01:38:14 .boss 81993 boss w camCheck=SP1LN2Fill We went down to the enclosure to check pressures and to do a force-fill. The pressure rose again to spec, and the warnings have disappeared. We will monitor the pressures throughout the night to see if the problem reoccurs. We called Joe to double check to make sure things are okay. No Critical alert email was sent out. Joe advised to keep an eye on the pressure, and this problem is something that happens in the fall. 01:50Z According to the status script: sp1LN2: 11.0; sp2LN2: 9.0; 11:02Z A storm system is approaching. Humidity and wind has risen. Auto-scheduler has been run; closing up and starting morning calibrations for APOGEE and BOSS. ---- Spectroscopy Data Summary ---- raw_data: /data/apogee/utr_cdr/56555/apRaw-*.fits quick_red: /data/apogee/quickred/56555/ap2D-a-*.fits.fz archive: /data/apogee/archive/56555/apR-[a,b,c]-*.apz -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i UT File/Exp Imtype Nread Dth Ct-Plate Archiv Offset Comment -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 23:26 09930001 Dark 60 A 7-5550 a-b-c - None 2 23:37 09930002 QuartzFlat 10 A 7-5550 a-b-c - None 3 23:39 09930003 ArcLamp (thar) 12 A 7-5550 a-b-c 0.0 None 4 23:41 09930004 ArcLamp (une) 40 A 7-5550 a-b-c - None 5 23:48 09930005 ArcLamp (thar) 12 B 7-5550 a-b-c 0.0 None 6 23:51 09930006 ArcLamp (une) 40 B 7-5550 a-b-c - None 7 23:58 09930007 Dark 60 A 7-5550 a-b-c - None 8 11:10 09930008 Dark 60 A ------- x-x-x - None -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THAR Line Centers for A/B, pix: [941.2, 941.7] ---- Telescope Status ---- Never opened.
