Rehomed, but didn't fix anything after first home. The second time I homed them they went back to their normal (good) position. We saw a couple GPS Not Synced errors tonight with Agile. Never saw these before and they went away on their own. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20:43 dcamera 741( 1495) -74 69 19.9 21.7 20.6 21.3 20.0 -- 1.20 21:36 SPIcam 628( 1477) -41 67 20.1 20.6 20.4 20.2 20.0 SDSS g 0.84 21:38 NA2gdr 1432(31432) -41 67 20.1 20.6 20.4 20.2 20.0 clear 0.85 01:14 AGILE 503( -874) -46 15 18.5 18.5 19.0 18.4 18.4 BG40 2.00 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 74 35 11 267 (W) 967 clear none 17:00 72 31 12 322 (NW) 967 clear none 18:00 72 30 9 326 (NW) 967 clear none 19:00 73 33 8 267 (W) 967 clear none 20:00 69 29 8 280 (W) 967 clear none 21:00 68 28 6 272 (W) 967 clear none 22:00 67 30 13 251 (WSW) 967 clear none 23:00 66 32 10 262 (W) 967 clear none 00:00 66 32 9 255 (WSW) 967 clear none 01:00 66 32 8 272 (W) 967 clear none 02:00 66 31 6 268 (W) 967 clear none 03:00 66 31 5 273 (W) 967 clear none 04:00 67 32 4 263 (W) 967 clear none 05:00 67 31 2 236 (SW) 967 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
