Instructions in the wiki have been slightly modified for the new ecamera. Night started with partly cloudy conditions and a lot of cirrus. While the clouds did thin out, the cirrus persisted for the rest of the night. Aside from having to reboot ARCSAT around 3 AM to solve an issue with the focus script getting stuck, the night was otherwise uneventful. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20:08 ecamera 543( 418) 251 61 17.7 18.1 18.3 17.6 17.9 ND3 0.71 00:14 ecamera 479( 278) 347 29 16.3 16.1 16.7 16.1 16.2 ND2 1.05 Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 73 27 23 266 (W) 705 mstly clr none 17:00 73 29 8 203 (SSW) 754 mstly clr none 18:00 68 28 10 262 (W) 805 ptly cldy none 19:00 68 26 17 261 (W) 732 ptly cldy none 20:00 64 25 13 263 (W) 758 ptly cldy none 21:00 64 28 14 267 (W) 860 mstly clr none 22:00 64 28 13 264 (W) 856 mstly clr none 23:00 63 27 13 264 (W) 707 mstly clr none 00:00 63 25 10 269 (W) 535 mstly clr none 01:00 62 24 12 267 (W) 475 mstly clr none 02:00 61 25 11 271 (W) 489 mstly clr none 03:00 61 25 12 278 (W) 515 mstly clr none 04:00 60 25 12 305 (NW) 604 mstly clr none 05:00 59 24 10 322 (NW) 569 mstly clr none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
