APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Saturday May 16, 2009 (MJD 54968) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Viktor Malanushenko Elena malanushenko ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- It was high humidity for whole night, clouds for most of night. We did not open last night. - We got spectro guider darks, slightly adjusted fiber position on CCDs, checked the wavelength positions (they are ok). - Got dithered flats series also. - We see some problems with last day mapping files (cart 8 and 7), could you please check them. - Spectro dewar has one fill which is ok by the next observations, but we will watch it. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- All checked and OK Collimate is done and now corresponded temperature ~ +13.0 C Night: ----- Clouds, high humidity, radar return. Humidity is better now and we started ventilation. 02:30Z opened doors, louvers, start ventilation Humidity is up again and we stopped ventilation. 04:40Z closed doors, louvers, stop ventillation. Cloudy night task: 05:14Z guiderDark 30 10 New guider dark file is created: /data/spectro/guiderDarks/dark-30-54968.fits Humidity is up and down and the difference is 3.1-3.2 The clouds is better. As the temperature is dropped, we moved sp1 spectro pistons by -3000 and sp2 by -2000. 05:38Z PostCalibs 05:47Z goSpecFoc We are in foc. Cart 2 is mounted, used positions for cart 2. The fibers positions on CCD is goos and I just little adjusted them by 2-3 pix: sp1> -3 pix, mechMoveColl 300 300 -300 sp2> -2 pix, mechMoveColl 200 200 -200 Checked wavelength position, and it is good and do not need to be adjusted. 06:25Z rain sensor alarm, very wet, humidity 100%. 07:27Z dithered flats -- specFlats 15 ff= 61170-61185 Cart 8 did not load from SOP GUI as new map file has been created even cart did not pug last day. New map file has wrong cart ID. Cart 7 plate 3426 has been pud last day but and has map file but it does not show at Nigh plan. 10:10Z the humidity is still high, so we desided to endNight. 10:27Z endNight finished manually 10:30Z switched from utility to generator for electricity on site. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== IMAGING RUN DETAILS ===--- ---=== SKIPPY RESULTS ===--- Run Frame nFrames stars muErr muRms nuErr nuRms rot az el --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== LTMATCH RESULTS ===--- Run Field nFields alt az nGood rowMean rowSig colMean colSig rot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== SPECTROSCOPY DATA SUMMARY ===--- Summary Checked (y/n): QA Procedures Done (y/n): UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 61153, plate -9999 ------- 23:59 61153 0.0 bias ----- sequence 61154, plate 3312 ------- 00:43 61154 10.0 flat 00:46 61155 2.0 arc 00:50 61156 3.0 arc 00:53 61157 3.0 arc ----- sequence 61158, plate -9999 ------- 01:25 61158 0.0 bias ----- sequence 61159, plate 3312 ------- 02:40 61159 10.0 flat 02:42 61160 2.0 arc 02:48 61161 3.0 arc 02:50 61162 3.0 arc 05:41 61163 10.0 flat 05:43 61164 2.0 arc 05:49 61165 3.0 arc 05:51 61166 3.0 arc 06:38 61167 10.0 flat 07:13 61168 10.0 flat 07:15 61169 2.0 arc 07:29 61170 10.0 flat 07:33 61171 10.0 flat 07:38 61172 10.0 flat 07:42 61173 10.0 flat 07:46 61174 10.0 flat 07:50 61175 10.0 flat 07:54 61176 10.0 flat 07:58 61177 10.0 flat 08:02 61178 10.0 flat 08:06 61179 10.0 flat 08:11 61180 10.0 flat 08:15 61181 10.0 flat 08:19 61182 10.0 flat 08:23 61183 10.0 flat 08:28 61184 10.0 flat 08:32 61185 2.0 arc 08:34 61186 2.0 arc 08:46 61187 3.0 arc 08:48 61188 3.0 arc ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 23:58Z 46 41 18 68 (ENE) 1185 - 00:31Z 43 41 17 51 (NE) 786 - 01:03Z 42 41 18 68 (ENE) 633 - 01:33Z 43 41 9 65 (ENE) 877 - 02:04Z 45 40 7 27 (NNE) 1273 - 02:35Z 48 41 0 95 (E) 2052 - 03:05Z 47 41 0 296 (WNW) 1903 - 03:35Z 47 41 6 279 (W) 2348 - 04:07Z 46 40 0 261 (W) 2079 - 04:39Z 46 40 7 20 (NNE) 1637 - 05:11Z 44 40 14 24 (NNE) 1307 - 05:42Z 45 39 5 72 (ENE) 1838 - 06:12Z 39 38 7 80 (E) 1597 - 06:43Z 37 38 6 92 (E) 438 - 07:15Z 40 39 13 142 (SE) 778 - 07:49Z 43 40 13 153 (SSE) 1577 - 08:21Z 42 40 7 142 (SE) 1471 - 09:22Z 43 40 4 182 (S) 1936 - 09:52Z 44 40 4 184 (S) 2024 - 10:22Z 44 40 3 179 (S) 1973 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 02:30Z - Began ventilation.
