IT got it working in short order for us tonight. Clouds formed over us around 18:45. We finished the 1st program but then closed after that finished as the clouds were too thick to observe at this point. We never re-opened for the remainder of the night. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18:28 tcamera 450( 1019) 90 66 2.1 3.7 4.3 3.5 3.1 Ks 1.00 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 41 4 34 239 (WSW) 962 ptly cldy none 17:00 41 5 26 254 (WSW) 1770 ptly cldy none 18:00 37 5 21 268 (W) 1466 ptly cldy none 19:00 36 5 27 267 (W) 993 cloudy none 20:00 36 5 16 265 (W) 899 cloudy none 21:00 36 6 23 292 (WNW) 1016 cloudy none 22:00 35 9 16 265 (W) 2571 cloudy none 23:00 34 10 20 265 (W) 2934 cloudy none 00:00 33 12 16 267 (W) 2472 cloudy none 01:00 32 12 14 252 (WSW) 2588 cloudy none 02:00 31 11 16 254 (WSW) 2927 cloudy none 03:00 29 12 16 236 (SW) 2124 cloudy none 04:00 27 10 12 245 (WSW) 1605 cloudy snow Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
