Subject: 2.5m obslog 20140313 (MJD 56730) From: doravetz@apo.nmsu.edu Date: Fri, 14 Mar 2014 10:50:41 +0000 (UTC) APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday March 13, 2014 (MJD 56730) ---- Observing Team ---- Audrey Oravetz Dan Oravetz Kaike Pan (daytime lossy fiber test) ---- Observing Plan ---- 13 Mar 2014 56730.0 APOGEE 10.4 hours Flexible Day Engineering ---- Observing Summary ---- Most of the night was lost to clouds, radar returns, some wet snow, and high dust. We collected 40k dust-hours while we were open. Observed the following APOGEE fields: Cart. 1, 7196, 195+00_A - 2XABBA @ 500s each; 5 faint fibers in flat Cart. 6, 7219, 203+18_A - ABBA + AB @ 500s each; 6 faint fibers in flat Kaike collected lossy-fiber data for SP2 during the early afternoon. We had a problem with FF petal 3 after we closed for threatening clouds. It was in an intermediate state (even though it looked closed) where it was not engaging the 'closed' switch which prevented us from initializing axes and slewing to stow after the enclosure was put back on. See Log body at 04:18Z for details. We had another occurrence of Ticket #2011 where the dome flat for cart. 1, 7196 was over-exposed. John P. was logged-in at the time and was able to watch the sequence of commands during this dome flat and it looks like the problem is that the FF lamps claim that they haven't turned on by the time the 'off' command gets sent. He very quickly (a couple minutes during a cartridge change) ran a test related to this problem. Neither of our site keys were able to unlock the Linde cart shed, so we stored the Linde cart in the enclosure. Can someone please take a look at the Linde cart shed door knob? ---- Observing Log ---- Day test: Lossy fiber test data on SP2 bias: frame 176671 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120 sec exposures: 176672-77 Move 30 pixels in y, 15 pixel in x, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120 sec exposures: 176691-96.
