I took 4 sets of fvc rotator scan data for Conor while closing. 4 sets of fvc rotator scan data are collected at alt=70 with step size of 15 deg and fbilevel =6. The 1st scan: The 1st fvc image: 0003. The last one is 0074. The 2nd scan: The 1st fvc image: 0075. The last image: 0146. The 3rd scan: The 1st FVC image: 0147. The last image: 0218 The 4th scan: The 1st FVC image: 0219. The last image: 0290. Notes: 1. We had some reported collisions on rob 716 recently. ---- Observing Log ---- Afternoon: ========== BOSS collimation was checked. No adjustment. sp1: offset: r= -3298 (Out of focus); b= 5.8 (Out of focus) sp1: pred. move: spAverageMove= -2580 sp1: pred. resid: r= -717, b= -2.2, txt= OK, spTemp = 2.5 GFA biases and darks were taken, checked, confirmed normal. No bright spot in FVC dark. APOGEE collimator communication process hung. The normal procedure recovered it with one exception: After the recovering procedure, Two serious errors listed below were triggered. hub startNub apogee amd apogee status stopped it.
