My second half observer was having issues with TUI not updating her DIS slitview images. She had to log out and restart TUI to fix. This happened at least twice during the second half for her. Things weorked fine on my end. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19:14 dcamera 811( 1087) 126 69 13.1 15.3 15.1 15.1 14.6 -- 1.35 00:18 dcamera 737( 781) 240 48 10.6 10.5 11.2 10.4 10.5 -- 1.90 04:16 APOLLO 700( 1522) 49 57 8.7 8.2 8.9 8.1 8.4 -- 2.50 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 67 22 29 232 (SW) 1861 clear none 17:00 64 20 21 202 (SSW) 1793 clear none 18:00 62 18 26 222 (SW) 1316 clear none 19:00 58 14 22 259 (W) 1958 clear none 20:00 55 13 17 263 (W) 1341 clear none 21:00 54 11 15 268 (W) 1530 clear none 22:00 53 9 16 267 (W) 1877 clear none 23:00 54 8 16 265 (W) 1872 clear none 00:00 53 6 23 240 (WSW) 1883 clear none 01:00 51 6 15 261 (W) 1652 clear none 02:00 50 5 7 259 (W) 1490 clear none 03:00 49 4 9 290 (WNW) 1630 clear none 04:00 48 4 7 334 (NNW) 1629 clear none 05:00 48 4 14 12 (NNE) 1696 clear none 06:00 50 6 13 318 (NW) 878 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
