I took images with TSPEC at random times during the night to see if the instrument behaved, All images appeared to be fine until the last one of the night, that one was corrupted again. A nice night once the clouds went away a few hours after sunset. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 01:15 ecamera 326( -251) 280 38 15.8 15.5 15.9 15.7 15.8 ND1 1.16 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp C Dewp C MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 68 45 9 260 (W) 663 ptly cldy none 17:00 66 42 11 253 (WSW) 525 ptly cldy none 18:00 67 40 10 247 (WSW) 503 ptly cldy none 19:00 65 41 12 264 (W) 545 ptly cldy none 20:00 65 42 13 266 (W) 558 ptly cldy none 21:00 62 36 13 276 (W) 716 mstly clr none 22:00 61 36 12 262 (W) 587 mstly clr none 23:00 61 37 12 269 (W) 570 mstly clr none 00:00 62 36 13 264 (W) 635 clear none 01:00 61 38 10 288 (WNW) 557 clear none 02:00 60 38 13 284 (WNW) 639 clear none 03:00 59 39 14 288 (WNW) 704 clear none 04:00 59 39 17 299 (WNW) 680 clear none 05:00 59 39 18 320 (NW) 721 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
