Bill still has collimation to perform and we were still having some communication issues with the Hub and TUI. Bill. Fritz, and Jon are on the hunt for solutions. I did a preliminary instrument checkout as well as re-starting the Dataq. Detailed engineering log sent to the engineering staff. Not much else to do with a non-working telescope so I work on some other 3.5m tasks (editing night logs to get a jump on the year end stats). Looks like the 3.5m schedule is not available (Service Not Available on web). Hence, the blank program section tonight. note: 5.1 hrs Dark, 5.3 hrs Bright ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
