APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday November 22, 2010 (MJD 55523) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Viktor Malanushenko Dmitry Bizyaev Steph Snedden (afternoon) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- MARVELS Science ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Smooth clear night with almost full Moon. MARVELS cartridges exposed: (in all of them fibers 49,50 are dead because of broken long fibers). 9 3519 A fibers 15,16 extremely weak, 85,86 no signal 9 3519 B missing fibers 105, 106 1 3076 A -*- 105, 106 1 3076 B -*- 67, 68 8 3220 A -*- 47,48, 85,86, 117,118 7 3638 A -*- 33,34 5 3634 A ok 5 3634 B ok 3 3705 A -*- 27,28 6 3707 B -*- 87.88 Paul and Craig worked with codes in the first part of the night. STUI complained after each guider exposure about some guider errors (like "unknown SM device") with sound alert. The alert is impossible to disable in STUI. It did not affct guider operations, just our ears and alerts monitoring. gcamera failed 4 times this night: guider silently stopped working. STUI died 1 time on landru. Marvels gang-connector is very hard to put in the floor, probably the issue of lower temperatures. Please check it. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- Plate 3519 did not show up in the platedb webapp when it was on cartridge 4. Now it is on cartridge 9 and still does not show up. However, I do NOT think it is a webapp problem. The RA is just out of range for the webapp. 22:40Z - ThAr lamp on 22:45Z - Building ventilation started. Doors closed. 23:08Z - Doors opened. BOSS bias and dark taken. No arcs or flats since a fully plugged plate was not in the bay. All actors verified to be alive (except ecamera, as expected). 23:30Z - No problems noted at the telescope during checkout. Cartridge 9 mounted.
