We had one slew fail due to being at the end of the rotator wrap at timestamp 2023-09-02 08:50:25. There were wispy and thin clouds coming through for most of the night, but the seeing was decent and no other weather trouble. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19:52 dssi 405( 2013) -14 50 17.3 19.2 19.2 19.3 17.6 692 0.95 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 72 34 13 196 (SSW) 579 mstly clr none 17:00 68 29 16 129 (SE) 428 mstly clr none 18:00 68 33 8 180 (S) 573 mstly clr none 19:00 66 32 10 208 (SSW) 564 mstly clr none 20:00 63 29 14 168 (SSE) 556 mstly clr none 21:00 63 31 15 152 (SSE) 620 mstly clr none 22:00 63 30 16 142 (SE) 644 mstly clr none 23:00 61 32 21 127 (SE) 853 mstly clr none 00:00 61 30 20 126 (SE) 967 mstly clr none 01:00 60 30 19 126 (SE) 1142 mstly clr none 02:00 60 31 14 131 (SE) 1170 mstly clr none 03:00 59 33 20 131 (SE) 1217 mstly clr none 04:00 58 33 20 133 (SE) 1390 clear none 05:00 57 32 18 147 (SSE) 1301 clear none 06:00 58 30 15 147 (SSE) 1234 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
