Finished cloudy night tasks for the month of December. Petunia showed a 45 minute gap during APOGEE time (between UT10:00 and UT10:45). ---- Observing Plan ---- Tue 9 DEC 2014 57001.0 0.89 01:10 12:56 23:22 11:10 ---- eBOSS until 03:11 ( 2.0 h), then APOGEE-2 ( 9.8 h) ---- Observing Log ---- ============================================================================ AFTERNOON CHECKOUT ============================================================================ Tested actors and checked status, all was ok.

Checked enclosure - ok. Restarted STUI on telescope. 23:30 started ventilation Stopped ventilation around 00:00 because of nearby storm. ---------- News: Sop closes apogee shutter during boss cals if apogeeGang bypassed. This explain last night problem with apogee calibration. John's stui-log-class will start tomorrow at 1pm or at 3pm, Dec. 10. Russell and Dan did live test of new tcc on telescope, with success. Kaike released new pointing model to infrastructure for discussions. Night: ------ Delaying opening due to clouds and approaching radar return. 00:10 Finished up the last cloudy night task - the Sp flats: 00:13:45 boss exposure 30.0, file=190758 00:15:43 boss exposure 30.0, file=190759 00:17:37 boss exposure 30.0, file=190760 00:19:31 boss exposure 30.0, file=190761 00:21:24 boss exposure 30.0, file=190762 Updated the white board and the wiki to reflect the completion of monthly spectro cloudy night tasks. 07:21Z Still cloudy.
