Subject: 2.5m obslog 20231222 (SJD 60301) From: doravetz@apo.nmsu.edu Date: Sat, 23 Dec 2023 12:10:58 +0000 (UTC) APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday December 22, 2023 (SJD 60301) ---- Observing Team ---- Dan Oravetz ---- Observing Plan ---- Fri 22 Dec 2023 60301 bright until 10:48 (9.8 h, w/ 0.3 h for 12 deg design), then dark (2.0 h) ---- Observing Summary ---- The night was lost to weather. At first it was mostly clear with high humidity and it looked like there may be a chance to open during the first several hours, but then a winter thunderstorm moved through and clouds/radar and high winds persisted. Notes ===== (1) GFA5 was showing it was connected in fliswarm, 00:46:50 .fliswarm 0 fliswarm i status=gfa5,gfa5n,"MicroLine ML4240",ML0192718,292,256,1,1,50,2,2098,2050,0,0,2048,2048,-20.0,9.9375,0,51.0 but no GFA5 images were on disk. A 'fliswarm reconnect' by itself didn't solve the problem, but a 'fliswarm reconnect -n gfa5 --force' worked. ---- Observing Log ---- ============================================================================ AFTERNOON CHECKOUT ============================================================================ All systems alive and responsive.

Clouds got worse and the wind has been trending upwards. 05:20Z - A strange winter thunderstorm with graupel now is on site. 12:01Z - Lots of radar, clouds, high wind, high humidity etc. still present. Calling it a night. FPS powererd-off. Positioners home/folded. APOGEE morning cals started. ---- Mirror Numbers ---- PRIMARY: -------- Scale: 1.000000 MIGS TONIGHT NOMINAL Axial A: 0.5070 0.5050 Axial B: -0.2000 -0.1950 Axial C: -0.1200 -0.1100 Trans D: 1.9080 1.9140 Lateral E: 0.3395 0.3395 Lateral F: 0.5460 0.5460 GALILS Commanded: 5650 1750 8800 -4500 -3400 -3100 Actual: 5650 1750 8800 -4500 -3400 -3100 SETMIR VALUES PrimDesOrient: 0.0 44.5 -7.8 -427.0 -2433.9 PrimOrient: 1.07 44.57 -7.9 -426.41 -2433.31 SECONDARY: ---------- Focus: 0.0000 Air temp: 0.00 Altitude: 30.0 MIGS TONIGHT NOMINAL Axial A: -1.0500 -1.0360 Axial B: -1.0610 -1.0720 Axial C: -1.1000 -1.1070 Trans D: -0.0290 -0.0470 GALILS Commanded: 5904200 5822450 5961800 -1500 -7250 Actual: 5883498 5811643 5906049 -1500 -7250 SETMIR VALUES SecDesOrient: 4657.0 -24.5 -17.5 18.0 125.41 SecOrient: 4656.91 -24.48 -17.48 17.71 125.24 ---- Telescope Status ---- Status at: 12:03Z Telescope stowed at: 121.0, 30.0, 0.0 mount Instrument mounted: FPS Counterweights at: 694 696 713 713 LN2 autofill systems: Connected and turned on 180L LN2 dewar scales: SP1 285 lbs, 22.4 psi FPS Status ========== CP10 Loop = 7.48 L/min GFA Loop = 2.28 L/min Supply pressure = 42.6 psi Return pressure = 29.1 psi Chiller Status ============== Set temperarature = 4.0 C Flow = 5.2 Gpm ---- Software Used ---- STUI : 1.7.19 alerts : 2.3.0 boss : 6.0.2 -boss.specMec : 3.0.4 apo : 4.0.0 fliswarm : 0.5.0 jaeger : 1.6.0 kaiju : 1.3.1 coordio : 1.9.0 fps_calibrati : 2023.12.08+eebcf2b cherno : 0.6.3 astrometrynet : 0.93 hal : 0.7.3 hartmann : 2.0.2 hub : 5.0.1a0 mcp : 2.1-1-ge461 -mcp.plc : 35 -mcp.azFiduci : v1_149 -mcp.altFiduc : v1_149 -mcp.rotFiduc : v1_149 tcc : 1.4.0 apogee : not available apogeecal : not available apogeeql : v1_7_0dev STUIAdditions : 3.1.20 Boson : 0.3.2 sdss-obstools : 3.9.3 TPM : 1.2-31-gd7eb MCP : 2.1-1-ge461 PLC : V35 Fiducials : v1_149 idlspec2d : v6_1_0 Kronos : 1.6.2a roboscheduler : 1.4.0 ---- APOGEE Data Summary ---- 60300 morning cals: raw_data: /data/apogee/utr_cdr/60300/apRaw-*.fits archive: /data/apogee/archive/60300/apR-[a,b,c]-*.apz quickred: /data/apogee/quickred/60300/apq-*.fits ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ mjd i UT File/Exp Imtype Nread A/B Dth Design-Cfg Arch Offset %Flux/FPI Comm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 60300 52 11:51 47380052 Dark 60 A 13.0 ---------- a-b-c -
