APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday January 14, 2011 (MJD 55576) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Elena Malanushenko Alaina Shelden Steph Snedden (afternoon) Support: Jon Brinkmann Stephen Bailey ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- MARVELS until 10:08 (8.9 h), then BOSS (2.5 h) ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- PLEASE CHECK SP2 MOTOR B!!! It's movement failed, but sop DID NOT FAIL. See log for details and error messages. Az fiducial info is failing to read at all. We were able to find the field anyways. There is a buzzing alarm in the enclosure, similar to the enclosure off sound but not as loud. It buzzed at least 7 times within the time we were opening. We didn't see any lights or anything obviously wrong, but the alarm continues to randomly buzz. High wind for almost all of the night, opened for the last hour of the night. gcamera is still broken, Paul is working on the fix. Observed the following: Cart 16 3847 not done ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- We spent a lot of time trying to get the right cartridge/plate combinations to show up in platedb. The root cause was a typo during the day that created plug map files with the same plate on two different cartridges. At first, we did not see the duplication, and we wound up putting two sets of plugMap files for one cartridge/plate combo in the platedb. This prevented "loadCart" from working properly. Stephen B. had to manually delete one set from the database. Ugly. Power-cycling the guider camera did not change the set-point temperature problem reported the last few nights. Paul requested the camera serial number, as it will have to go back for repair. 23:33Z - Ventilation started, but doors closed. BOSS bias, dark, hartmanns and flat taken on cartridge 10. Collimation was in spec. Although an arc was scheduled in the STUI SOP doCalibs window, one was not taken. 23:45Z - ThAr lamp on. Jon installed the latest versions of STUI, MJCI and MJDD on landru and minidru (plus STUI on the telescope laptop). MJCI and MJDD have new default exposure times for calibration exposures; required after the cartridge upgrades. 00:15Z - Cartridge 5 mounted. Doors opened, but wind went beyond the closing limit, so opening was delayed. Ventilation left on. Night: ----- 08:19Z Had borderline humidity for a little while, but it went back down. Clouds have cleared, but wind is still high. Marvels time is over now, so if we can open we will start Boss. 10:35Z Enclosure off, wind is low enough 10:46Z ThAr lamp off 10:48Z Discovered that Az fiducials are not reading at all. There is no response in the fiducial windows, and forcing it did not help. We're trying to find the field anyway. 10:32Z loadCart: ct=16, pl=3847, sd=A; 10:48Z sop.gotoField hartmann frames 12522-23 failed to read motor status 10:55Z sop.gotoField hartmann only, frames 12524-25 MOTOR FAILED BUT SOP DID NOT!!!!!! 10:56:37 client.v10.sos 423 boss w text="Failure from sp2mech: Failed motor command 128 "0MN,1MR-1000,2MR-1000,0WE50,WA100,0MF " timed out" 10:56:37 client.v10.sos 423 boss w text='move failed; ignoring' 10:56:31 "moving sp2mech from [19783, 19231, 20744] to [12724, 12172, 13685] **** Current motor position 12725, *18232* 13685 LogFun gave this info (gotten from sop) for above hartmanns 10:57:38 hartSp2: r=-1458, b=-5.0, txt=OK; sp2Temp = -0.8 10:58:02 hartSp1: r=-227, b=-0.8, txt=OK; sp1Temp = -0.5 11:00Z sop said that everything was fine, so we continued. 11:05Z Found stars, regardless of no Az fiducial. 11:24Z science, but had to be aborted 11:35Z Noticed that there is indeed a huge tilt in sp2, moved sp2 motor 2 -6060, which worked fine.
