APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday September 13, 2001 (MJD 52166) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Mike Harvanek Dan Long Scot Kleinman Eric Neilsen Jurek Kzresinski Bill Boroski ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Completely shut out by weather. Afternoon testing of fast binned scan ( bias ) showed fragility of the ptvme link. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- No observing done.

The DA crashed both times. The first time it crashed during the binned bias. The second time it crashed during binned ''data'' taking. The instructions that were executed for each attempt are included below. It appeared that something in this procedure caused the ptvme link to fail and both times it appeared that ad4 was the problem. When rebooting the DA after the first attempt, we came across the following error: errno = 5: read (fd=3, 0x7F7F2B30, 0x00000004) = -1 (I/O error) CSB status: 0x80420010 AUX = (Timeout - Target failed to select within 1 second) CMP = (Command Completed With Error Status) INNA = 0 A second reboot of the DA seemed to fix the problem.
