Spent the night learning some of the finer points of making slit masks for the Echelle and DIS. Especially after doing 2 slit changes for the first half observer and a DIS user the other night. Drafted some documentation for the obs-specs how to do this that I will pass on this week. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- PROG INST FAILURE MODE TIME (SEGDFNVO) TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Air/Truss Wind Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp-C Dir MPH filt FWHM --------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:01 54 53 2 122 (ESE) 83 cloudy none 17:01 52 51 3 87 (E) 95 cloudy rain 18:01 50 50 23 73 (ENE) 19 cloudy rain 19:01 50 50 14 76 (ENE) 34 cloudy humid 20:01 50 50 12 79 (ENE) 37 cloudy humid 21:01 49 50 15 84 (E) 24 cloudy rain 22:01 50 50 10 87 (E) 23 cloudy humid 23:01 50 50 9 85 (E) 35 cloudy humid 00:01 50 50 9 87 (E) 38 cloudy humid 01:01 50 50 13 80 (E) 39 cloudy humid 02:01 50 50 6 113 (ESE) 78 cloudy humid 03:01 50 50 9 133 (SE) 98 cloudy humid 04:01 49 50 13 135 (SE) 124 cloudy humid 05:01 49 49 12 153 (SSE) 136 cloudy humid Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
