              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
During checkout, the echelle appeared to be responsive but it hung when the exposure finished, ie. it got stuck when it went to write the data.  It looks like it eventully did read out, and showed a time out on the expose window.  I tried taking images for the IOL a little while later and it hung after the flush and before the exposure.  It was hanging when flush and reads would finish.  ICC had the scsi error scrolling.
No telescope issues tonight.
