Ted was here working on setting up his account on the new Obs1 as well as helping with checking a few software issues. We have scat now working on both Ob1 and Ob3 as well as verifying all 3 catalogs are installed and working. We resolved the issue with it not reading in the telescope position correctly (well, Jon B did most of the work while we tested things). ------- 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 F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 72 39 3 117 (ESE) mstly clr none 17:00 70 40 3 91 (E) cloudy none 18:00 67 43 6 109 (ESE) cloudy none 19:00 65 43 13 111 (ESE) cloudy none 20:00 63 44 12 109 (ESE) cloudy lt rain 21:00 62 46 4 126 (SE) cloudy lt rain 22:00 62 43 2 215 (SW) cloudy lt rain 23:00 61 45 7 170 (S) ptly cldy none 00:00 59 47 9 111 (ESE) mstly cldy none 01:00 59 48 8 92 (E) mstly cldy none 02:00 58 48 13 79 (E) mstly cldy none 03:00 57 49 9 86 (E) mstly cldy none 04:00 56 49 11 90 (E) mstly cldy none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
