I continued with the same projects from previous nights. Triplespec was in a bad state at checkout and almost all night, but 112 consecutive images out of 2000 were good - so it's still switching between bad and good states without intervention. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp C Dewp C MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 46 45 10 127 (SE) 133 cloudy lt rain 17:00 46 45 8 120 (ESE) 165 cloudy lt rain 18:00 46 45 9 126 (SE) 172 cloudy rain 19:00 46 44 11 105 (ESE) 85 cloudy rain 20:00 44 43 15 80 (E) 101 cloudy rain 21:00 44 44 13 90 (E) 53 cloudy lt rain 22:00 44 43 14 88 (E) 92 cloudy lt rain 23:00 44 43 15 113 (ESE) 60 cloudy lt rain 00:00 43 42 12 91 (E) 39 cloudy lt rain 01:00 43 42 13 90 (E) 25 cloudy lt rain 02:00 43 42 11 90 (E) 36 cloudy fog 03:00 42 42 5 114 (ESE) 65 cloudy fog 04:00 43 43 2 184 (S) 38129 cloudy lt rain 05:00 44 44 5 187 (S) 12221 cloudy fog Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
