Subject: 2.5m obslog 20150108 (SJD 57031) From: gfreischlad@apo.nmsu.edu Date: Fri, 9 Jan 2015 12:25:33 +0000 (UTC) APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday January 08, 2015 (SJD 57031) ---- Observing Team ---- Dmitry Bizyaev Gordon Freischlad Olena Malanushenko (afternoon checkout) Kathleen Grabowski (training) Dan Long (phone) ---- Observing Summary ---- Afternoon notes: Reverted from new testing tcc to old tcc. Restarted guider and sop software related with new tcc, and ran from branches, to current stable versons. Running new sos software: idlspec2d (sos3) --- v5_7_6 ---------------- Night lost to clouds, humidity and light rain/snow. Had an issue with SP1 blue camera not responding to startfillseq. Did it manually with guidance from Dan Long. There is an issue with the 180LN2 spectro dewar(SP2). It needs immediate assistance. We cannot close the dewar exhaust so we will leave the pressure at ~0 until it can be dealt with. ---- Observing Plan ---- Thu 8 JAN 2015 57031.0 0.89 01:27 13:08 01:36 13:20 Day eBOSS until 03:42 ( 2.2 h), then APOGEE-2 ( 9.4 h) ---- Observing Log ---- Afternoon: ========== Tested actors, all ok. ----------------- Boss collimation: 22:27:49 Hartmann collimate output on cart #14 sp1: offset: r=-3298 (Out of focus); b=3.6 (In Focus) sp1: pred. move: spAverageMove= -2227 sp1: pred. spResiduals: r=-1071, b=-3.4, txt=OK, spTemp = 6.4 sp2: offset: r=-631 (In Focus); b=0.6 (In Focus) sp2: pred. move: spAverageMove= -410 sp2: pred. spResiduals: r=-221, b=-0.7, txt=OK, spTemp = 5.6 Kaike asked to adjust b2 by -3 degrees.

Apogee evening cals were taken, checked, and they are ok. Telescope has been checked and all ok. No evening cartridge mounted because of high humidity. No ventilation started. ------ Night ------ 03:25Z Started ventilating. 05:05Z Stopped ventilating.

With Dan Long's guidance we hooked up an emergency fill box up to the SP1 blue camera and topped it off. Fills behaved normally after that. 12:15Z Started morning APOGEE & BOSS cals. ---- Telescope Status ---- Never opened.
