I re-configured the fans to try to help. The weather Mac now has the spinning pinwheel. The dome camera PC rebooted itself (it might have done that last night). I restarted the displays. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18:49 ecamera 453( -26) 76 56 5.6 7.8 7.8 7.6 6.4 ND3 1.28 20:12 AGILE 453(-1266) -145 46 5.4 5.3 6.0 5.1 5.1 BG40 1.80 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 50 28 17 239 (WSW) 2712 clear none 17:00 49 28 11 213 (SSW) 2804 clear none 18:00 45 25 12 263 (W) 2757 clear none 19:00 42 25 12 259 (W) 2803 clear none 20:00 42 25 8 252 (WSW) 3146 clear dust 21:00 43 24 8 260 (W) 3082 clear dust 22:00 42 28 12 238 (WSW) 3494 clear dust 23:00 43 30 13 252 (WSW) 3712 clear dust 00:00 44 31 14 254 (WSW) 3456 ptly cldy dust 01:00 44 31 14 263 (W) 3231 ptly cldy dust 02:00 43 30 19 236 (SW) 3169 ptly cldy dust 03:00 42 30 18 270 (W) 3616 clear dust 04:00 41 29 19 266 (W) 3908 clear dust 05:00 41 26 21 266 (W) 3617 clear dust 06:00 40 22 20 267 (W) 3557 clear dust Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
