The axis controller had to be reset twice before the dome would properly slew. Arcsat was a bucket of problem but, nothing new. We had high clouds most of the night but it didn't keep anyone from observing. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19:54 dcamera 599( 1461) 280 63 19.0 20.9 20.9 20.5 19.2 -- 1.25 21:19 dcamera 479( 1255) 253 38 18.2 18.8 19.3 18.3 18.1 -- 1.56 03:03 dcamera 458( 1076) 234 73 16.6 16.1 16.8 15.9 15.9 -- 1.26 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 75 32 17 254 (WSW) 351 ptly cldy none 17:00 73 30 11 276 (W) 285 ptly cldy none 18:00 71 30 4 240 (WSW) 341 ptly cldy none 19:00 70 30 9 267 (W) 382 ptly cldy none 20:00 69 28 9 260 (W) 377 ptly cldy none 21:00 66 27 12 258 (WSW) 327 mstly clr none 22:00 65 27 12 191 (S) 380 clear none 23:00 64 27 11 186 (S) 359 mstly clr none 00:00 63 27 12 187 (S) 351 mstly clr none 01:00 64 27 9 240 (WSW) 352 ptly cldy none 02:00 63 27 8 219 (SW) 319 ptly cldy none 03:00 63 27 5 193 (SSW) 383 ptly cldy none 04:00 62 29 6 195 (SSW) 397 mstly clr none 05:00 62 26 6 315 (NW) 395 mstly clr none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
