This was in the middle of a cal series. I restarted the icc and all was good. The night started clear with good seeing and we had no problems! A lovely 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18:30 ecamera 384( -277) 174 41 0.7 3.5 3.2 3.3 1.8 ND1 1.24 03:27 tcamera 404( 846) 250 37 1.2 0.5 1.3 0.8 1.1 Ks 1.07 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 38 14 6 261 (W) 2513 clear none 17:00 38 8 6 314 (NW) 1765 clear none 18:00 37 13 5 207 (SSW) 2494 clear none 19:00 36 12 5 235 (SW) 2682 clear none 20:00 33 6 5 277 (W) 1850 clear none 21:00 33 4 3 260 (W) 1816 clear none 22:00 35 0 6 240 (WSW) 1640 clear none 23:00 35 -2 12 233 (SW) 2042 clear none 00:00 36 3 10 272 (W) 2239 clear none 01:00 35 3 8 266 (W) 2267 clear none 02:00 36 2 13 263 (W) 2317 clear none 03:00 35 3 8 277 (W) 2581 clear none 04:00 35 4 9 265 (W) 2546 clear none 05:00 33 5 10 278 (W) 2511 clear none 06:00 33 6 7 264 (W) 3146 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
