Most of the beginning of the night was occupied with getting many systems back online. Seems to have effected the controllers, PMSS, the secondary, gcam (maybe). gcam is still not working PR# 1242. We eventually got on sky with GFP and they were successful. Got some images and spectra. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- PROG INST FAILURE MODE TIME (SEDFNVOG) TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp Strc Prim Sec Air filt FWHM -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 21:54 GFP 75( -112) 277 41 6.6 6.8 6.9 6.0 6.5 1.24 23:37 GFP 75( -151) 189 52 7.3 6.3 6.8 5.9 6.3 6565 0.95 01:58 GFP 25( -163) 35 21 7.0 6.0 6.0 5.7 5.7 6565 1.60 04:03 GFP 125( -93) 6 31 6.6 5.8 6.2 5.2 6.0 6565 1.07 04:11 GFP 100( -119) 4 31 6.6 5.8 6.3 5.3 6.1 6565-120 1.10 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 12 313 (NW) 1312 mstly clr none 17:00 12 333 (NNW) 938 mstly clr none 18:00 5 271 (W) 1127 mstly clr none 19:00 1 213 (SSW) 986 mstly clr none 20:00 45 8 8 6 (N) 1094 mstly clr none 21:00 45 6 10 27 (NNE) 837 mstly clr none 22:00 45 1 12 22 (NNE) 767 mstly clr none 23:00 44 0 5 50 (NE) 416 mstly clr none 00:00 43 0 4 359 (N) 449 mstly clr none 01:00 45 0 8 313 (NW) 419 mstly clr none 02:00 44 1 2 343 (NNW) 694 mstly clr none 03:00 45 0 9 355 (N) 397 mstly clr none 04:00 44 1 8 315 (NW) 684 mstly clr none 05:00 44 0 4 282 (WNW) 489 mstly clr none 06:00 44 0 5 259 (W) 616 mstly clr none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
