There was an incident of echelle's filter wheel not moving to the blue filter on command from an observer's script, but this was found, and the wheel inspected. It followed commands from TUI well, and no problems were seen from this the rest of the night. Clouds came at midnight, coming through intermittenly throughout the night, but we remained open until we closed at 05:00 for cals. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20:34 ecamera 350( 21) 119 46 19.5 20.6 21.6 20.2 19.6 ND2 1.14 01:32 dcamera 150( 760) 246 34 18.2 18.0 18.5 17.9 17.9 -- 1.50 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 75 46 ?? 1107 mstly clr none 17:00 75 48 ?? 1201 mstly clr none 18:00 73 47 ?? 1199 mstly clr none 19:00 73 42 ?? 1148 mstly clr none 20:00 68 43 ?? 1373 clear none 21:00 67 42 ?? 1598 clear none 22:00 66 41 ?? 1464 clear none 23:00 65 39 ?? 1492 clear none 00:00 65 38 ?? 2102 ptly cldy none 01:00 65 38 ?? 1954 ptly cldy none 02:00 65 37 ?? 1875 ptly cldy none 03:00 66 39 ?? 1667 ptly cldy none 04:00 65 39 ?? 1636 ptly cldy none 05:00 64 39 ?? 1606 ptly cldy none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
