APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday September 25, 2006 (MJD 54004) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Observers: Kaike Pan and Howard Brewington ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- High humidity; we never opened The rot-axis sings: see Log ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ------------ We had to reboot photo-2 because id4 became unhappy during our goDrift -bias. During the telescope checkout, we had an Alt abort at about 41-degrees. And, we also noticed that the rot-axis produced a high pitch sound when moved from 100-degrees to 00 as test slews were done. Night: ------- 00:56Z At sunset, we had high humidity. So, we mounted the imager and waited. 05:15Z Conditions did not improve; we did not open. endNight finished and was happy see Problems Section for misc Watcher messages. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6395 23:07Z 23:16Z 100 O 60.53 62.85 30 ignore 6396 23:23Z 23:42Z 100 O 64.53 69.50 47 ignore 6397 01:24Z 01:50Z 100 O 94.95 101.50 58 bias ---=== 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): y QA Procedures Done (y/n): y UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 40768, plate -9999 ------- 23:02 40768 0.0 bias ----- sequence 40769, plate 2556 ------- 23:15 40769 10.0 flat 23:17 40770 2.0 arc ----- sequence 40771, plate -9999 ------- 23:28 40771 0.0 bias ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== DATA TAPE SUMMARY ===--- Goes: JL Stays: JL ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 23:33Z 5 2556 1.00000 0 1257 0 121 30.0 14.3 2 200 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 22:41Z 55 45 7 267 (W) 488 - 23:11Z 59 47 9 224 (SW) 507 - 23:42Z 55 45 6 222 (SW) 535 - 00:13Z 54 45 3 268 (W) 569 - 00:43Z 52 45 3 250 (WSW) 670 - 01:13Z 50 45 3 266 (W) 684 - 01:43Z 50 45 3 256 (WSW) 685 - 02:13Z 50 45 2 268 (W) 768 - 02:44Z 49 45 3 257 (WSW) 755 - 03:14Z 49 45 1 245 (WSW) 720 - 03:44Z 50 45 2 256 (WSW) 781 - 04:14Z 50 45 2 259 (W) 807 - 04:44Z 50 45 2 263 (W) 818 - 05:14Z 49 44 9 214 (SW) 767 - 05:44Z 49 44 5 194 (SSW) 755 - 06:15Z 49 44 5 189 (S) 659 - 06:45Z 49 44 7 188 (S) 677 - 07:15Z 49 44 8 231 (SW) 639 - 07:45Z 49 44 6 215 (SW) 648 - 08:15Z 49 44 4 242 (WSW) 682 - 08:45Z 49 44 4 253 (WSW) 683 - 09:16Z 48 44 7 218 (SW) 671 - 09:48Z 48 44 7 220 (SW) 632 - 10:20Z 48 44 4 190 (S) 596 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- We never opened No interlocks bypassed.
