Everything worked well. Second half, the DIS ICC spontaneously rebooted while we were concentrating on focusing and acquiring the first target, so it first took a while to find the problem and then even longer to correct the ungraceful bits of connections lying around everywhere. Once that was resolved and we got going, things settled down nicely. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- PROG INST FAILURE MODE TIME (SEGDFVO) TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ----------------------------------------------------------------------- UW07 D I/S 01:30 02:05 DIS ICC rebooted ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Air/Truss Wind Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp-C Dir MPH filt FWHM --------------------------------------------------------------------- 20:38 SPIcam 0(1680) 194 63 15.0/15.9 241 19 z' 0.87 01:14 DISslit 45(1465) 221 47 12.0/12.3 244 22 - 1.2 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:01 66 20 18 262 (W) 495 clear none 17:01 68 20 23 227 (SW) 434 clear none 18:01 65 18 21 265 (W) 616 clear none 19:01 63 17 22 260 (W) 753 clear none 20:01 59 15 20 209 (SSW) 1580 clear none 21:01 58 15 16 218 (SW) 1472 clear none 22:01 57 16 16 232 (SW) 892 clear none 23:01 57 16 16 254 (WSW) 850 clear none 00:01 55 17 18 261 (W) 855 clear none 01:01 54 17 18 265 (W) 895 clear none 02:01 52 18 21 259 (W) 1022 clear none 03:01 51 19 18 247 (WSW) 1078 clear none 04:01 50 20 18 279 (W) 1231 clear none 05:01 50 22 13 268 (W) 1097 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
