No adjustment was made. 22:21:50 Hartmann collimate output on cart #17 sp1: offset: r=-329 (In Focus); b=-1.2 (In Focus) sp2: offset: r=631 (In Focus); b=1.8 (In Focus) sp1: pred. move: spAverageMove= 28 sp2: pred. move: spAverageMove= 32 sp1: pred. spResiduals: r=-357, b=-1.1, txt=OK, spTemp = 6.7 sp2: pred. spResiduals: r=599, b=1.9, txt=OK, spTemp = 5.8 Guider cart= 17, plate= 8161, side= A (loaded); ---------- motorPosition sp1: 247, 341, 279; sp2: 18076, 17207, 18439; ---------- Median spectrographs temperatures: Tsp1= 6.7, Tsp2= 5.8; Outside air temperature= 5.9; APOGEE evening calibration were taken and checked. No evening ventilation due to nearby radar return. NIGHT: ===== 01:28Z The warm observing computer, landru, has frozen twice in 30 minutes. JonB is working on this problem now. The mouse works, but none of the STUI windows are accessible on landru. After several reboots of the machine and not starting tpm, landru is working again. Still closed due to nearby radar and rising wind speeds. 08:22Z We have been seeing gusts of over 50mph. Snowing. High humidity. Still closed. 11:26Z Giving up. Started morning BOSS and APOGEE cals. ---- Telescope Status ---- Never opened.
