Subject: 2.5m obslog 20150605 (SJD 57179) From: kpan@apo.nmsu.edu Date: Sat, 6 Jun 2015 10:44:19 +0000 (UTC) APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday June 05, 2015 (SJD 57179) ---- Observing Summary ---- It was cloudy. We opened for 50 minutes didn't get useful data. John run tests on his new fixes in guider and SOP codes which past the test. Guider v3_3 and sop v3_2_1 were tagged, declared current, running. Ticket 2284 was closed. Notes to developers and engineers: 1. Sorry to report this while many of us thought the issue was fixed. We experienced one out of closed loop on the gotoField of cart 2 at UT 02:14:10. 2. Last night, the first APOGEE bundle (fiber 1-30) on cart 2 has low throughput on the dome flat taken after science exposures. We took five dome flats with unpluging/plugging between on the cart. All of these dome flats are fine tonight. 3. We used "Do Apogee Dome Flat" button on SOP GUI to take several dome flats for the test above, and found that it open the APOGEE shutter before taking a dome flat, but doesn't close the shutter after the flat. We think that the shutter should be closed afterward. ---- Observing Log ---- Afternoon: ---------- Checked hardware, software, actors, guider, plates, platedb - no problems.

MaNGA-lead. 03:14:10Z: we had a out of closed loop on goto Field. 03:15Z: clear axes, and re-issued gotoField. SOGTF. 03:55Z it was too cloudy to get useful data, and there are some pollen in air. We decided to close back. Last night, the first APOGEE bundle (fiber 1-30) on cart 2 has low throughput on the dome flat taken after science exposures, We requested the bundle to be checked today, but did see any report on it. So we took five dome flats with unpluging/plugging between. All of these dome flats are fine tonight. We used "Do Apogee Dome Flat" button on SOP GUI to take dome flat, and found that it open the APOGEE shutter before taking the dome flat, but didn't close the shutter after the dome flat. We think that it should close the shutter after taking the dome flat. 10:30Z It is clear, but still high humidity with dew point difference of 3.9 C. Since it is only 40 minutes from 8 degree twilight, we decided to call it night. 10:40Z started morning calibration. ---- Telescope Status ---- 01:08Z Started ventilation 03:10Z encl25m : open 04:00Z encl25m : closed No interlocks bypassed Status at: 10:45Z Telescope stowed at: 121.0, 30.0, 0.0 mount Instrument mounted: cartridge = 2 Counterweights at: LN2 autofill systems: Connected and turned on 180L LN2 dewar scales: SP1 134 lbs, 21 psi SP2 109 lbs, 19 psi ---- Software Used ---- TUI : 1.7.0 alerts : trunk+svn149374 apo : trunk+svn158476 boss : v3_6 -boss.specMec : 3.0.4 gcamera : v2_1 guider : v3_2_2 hartmann : v1_4_3 hub : Tag: sdss4_v3_0 mcp : v6_6_18 -mcp.plc : 31 -mcp.azFiduci : v1_116 -mcp.altFiduc : v1_116 -mcp.rotFiduc : v1_116 platedb : v2_3 sop : v3_1_4 tcc : 1.2.1 apogee : not availble apogeecal : not availble apogeeql : v1_5_9 ---- Mirror Numbers ---- PRIMARY: -------- Scale: 1.000000; MIGS TONIGHT NOMINAL Axial A: 0.034 0.028 Axial B: -0.013 -0.007 Axial C: -0.018 -0.027 Trans D: -0.013 -0.019 Lateral E: 10.668 10.7061 Lateral F: 12.2936 12.319 GALILS Commanded: 10850 -450 5750 13050 14750 14300 Actual: 10850 -450 5750 13050 14750 14300 SETMIR VALUES PrimDesOrient: 0.0 -17.47 11.84 635.9 916.8 PrimOrient: 0.0 -17.47 11.84 636.03 916.38 SECONDARY: ---------- Focus: 0.0000 Air temp: 16.3 Altitude: 29.8 MIGS TONIGHT NOMINAL Axial A: -7.065 -7.063 Axial B: -7.127 -7.117 Axial C: -0.051 -0.046 Trans D: -0.017 -0.016 GALILS Commanded: 1602450 1598450 1628900 1400 -2000 Actual: 1581262 1578799 1590736 1400 -2000 SETMIR VALUES SecDesOrient: 1257.0 -3.8 0.0 0.0 9.58 SecOrient: 1256.99 -3.84 0.0 0.0 9.46
