We lost about 1.5 hrs during the first half due to known problems and reboots. The dust also started climbing at the start of the NICFPS problems. We stayed open even with dust counts 10K, but inside dome was 1u per 0.1 cubic feet. TELESCOPE STATUS Telescope drives operational. Current TCC version: 2.15.0 Current TUI version: 1.9.5
