Subject: 2.5m obslog 20230917 (SJD 60205) From: dmbiz@apo.nmsu.edu Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2023 11:28:18 +0000 (UTC) APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Sunday September 17, 2023 (SJD 60205) ---- Observing Team ---- Dmitry Bizyaev Conner Scoresby ---- Observing Plan ---- Check if stars can come consistently to the center of CCD with certain offset. If works, complete grin and rotator test. Update instrumental block. If not, try to zero Tilts and Trans constant and try again. Sun 17 Sep 2023 60205 0.10 02:00 02:14 11:40 18:58 04:25 --- dark ( 9.4 h) plus 0.2 h for 12 deg design ---- Observing Summary ---- The entire night was lost to clouds, rain or high humidity. We were ab;e to run the guiderActor tonight. Ready for the further tests for tomorrow. Tonight we performed some test slews of all axes to watch fiducial crossings. ---- Software Issues ---- I was unable to look at MCP/Interlocks menu: on all computers that I have access to it froze the MCP session. If not called Interlocks, MCP worked well everywhere. ---- Observing Log ---- Afternoon --------- Checked all systems that have to work. Communicated with Jose and ensured that the guiderActor started and is working. Took test images with "guider findstar time=5" and "guider on oneExposure". wPositions = 423 426 444 443; MCP instr = 19 (mounted); ---------- motorPosition sp1: 25000, 25000, 24999; ---------- Median spectrographs temperatures: Tsp1= 8.8 Outside air temperature= 0.0; ---------- Boss CCD Temp : sp1r0= 2.0 (-126.6); The camera is offline. sp1b2= -99.6 (-100.0); sp1LN2: 10.0; ---------- ecameraTemp= -35.1 (-40.0) ecamera simulating = False Rel.

Night ----- Moved telescope and observed fiducial crossings by Kaike's request. 05:05Z rain started. 11:22Z humidity is too high to start ventilation. The sky is partly cloudy. We call it a night.
