After some confusion regarding DIS home turret positioning during afternoon checkout, I adjusted the zerostep setting for both blue and red on the highres gratings. We had no further problems during the night, and I think the primary issue was a misunderstanding on my part. No other problems tonight. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18:18 arctic 484( 659) 10 77 2.1 4.9 4.7 4.6 3.0 Semrock 0.76 00:23 dcamera 507( 297) 147 77 1.5 0.5 1.2 0.6 1.1 -- 1.31 Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 39 15 13 283 (WNW) 149 clear none 17:00 40 18 13 271 (W) 192 clear none 18:00 36 16 9 277 (W) 146 clear none 19:00 36 18 11 271 (W) 194 clear none 20:00 35 19 11 238 (WSW) 173 clear none 21:00 34 16 13 219 (SW) 185 clear none 22:00 34 16 13 242 (WSW) 196 clear none 23:00 34 14 11 274 (W) 191 clear none 00:00 34 12 8 253 (WSW) 175 clear none 01:00 35 12 21 298 (WNW) 166 clear none 02:00 35 13 14 299 (WNW) 136 clear none 03:00 34 14 22 302 (WNW) 149 clear none 04:00 34 12 19 308 (NW) 160 clear none 05:00 36 5 19 292 (WNW) 126 clear none 06:00 36 0 18 306 (NW) 84 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
