When I closed up the Moat light was flashing. It was not flashing at 01:10 when I did the instrument switch. Ben is on-site and taking care of the problem this morning. The optical cloud camera also appears to have stopped on Monday evening. It was clear all night tonight so I didn't much bother with it. I will reset it in the afternoon and see if that brings it back up (and possibly reset the network connection if that fails). ------- FAILURE LOG ------- FAILURE MODE TIME PROG INSTR TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp Strc Prim Sec Air filt FWHM -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19:44 dcamera 494( 1064) 90 63 14.3 17.1 17.5 16.3 14.6 -- 1.28 01:25 tcamera 466( 1237) 109 64 14.4 13.2 13.9 13.1 13.7 Ks 1.08 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 65 23 11 269 (W) 1318 clear none 17:00 69 24 3 203 (SSW) 1171 clear none 18:00 64 20 4 275 (W) 1174 clear none 19:00 60 17 9 89 (E) 1251 clear none 20:00 58 15 11 90 (E) 1299 clear none 21:00 56 18 11 84 (E) 1436 clear none 22:00 56 18 9 94 (E) 1487 clear none 23:00 56 17 8 94 (E) 1428 clear none 00:00 56 12 8 93 (E) 1048 clear none 01:00 56 14 5 106 (ESE) 896 clear none 02:00 58 14 2 163 (SSE) 923 clear none 03:00 58 15 5 193 (SSW) 1080 clear none 04:00 57 13 6 181 (S) 1010 clear none 05:00 56 13 5 184 (S) 1170 clear none 06:00 56 14 6 184 (S) 1361 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
