But after taking sky flats, we had an altitude oscillation at 20:31 at az 74, alt 34. I ran through several large alt slews and then we were fine the rest of the night! Focus was not taken for JH01 as they were using the diffuser and wanted to start on their target ASAP. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- FAILURE MODE TIME PROG INSTR TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- JH01 R T/H 20:31 20:36 altitude oscillations ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp Strc Prim Sec Air filt FWHM -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 00:25 tcamera 460( 1124) -143 59 10.8 10.9 11.6 10.8 10.8 Ks 1.22 01:44 tcamera 540( 1152) -69 52 9.4 9.7 10.3 9.6 9.5 Ks 1.24 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 62 19 18 223 (SW) 1205 clear none 17:00 64 19 23 218 (SW) 1018 clear none 18:00 60 18 20 218 (SW) 1488 clear none 19:00 59 16 26 235 (SW) 1709 clear none 20:00 56 12 22 217 (SW) 3004 clear none 21:00 55 11 14 228 (SW) 2785 clear none 22:00 54 11 19 262 (W) 1309 clear none 23:00 54 10 10 260 (W) 1255 clear none 00:00 53 11 19 257 (WSW) 1067 clear none 01:00 52 11 14 266 (W) 1164 clear none 02:00 51 14 19 263 (W) 976 clear none 03:00 49 13 8 271 (W) 1018 clear none 04:00 48 13 17 289 (WNW) 1124 clear none 05:00 46 14 22 287 (WNW) 1717 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
