APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Sunday June 25, 2006 (MJD 53912) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Night: John Barentine Viktor Malanushenko Shannon Watters Visitor: Don York ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Hydrological Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- It was a dark and stormy night.... with a deep, soaking rain, thick low-level clouds, and high humidity. Our chance of observing was the only thing left high and dry tonight. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon --------- We are Dan-less today. Despite that fact, checkout went pretty smoothly. Spectro focus has been left at 13 deg C. Night ----- Thunderstorms persisted through the afternoon into the early evening. Around 04:00Z it began to rain, and the humidity quickly went through the roof. Rain continued on and off for the rest of the night, and it was still raining when we called the night done at 09:50Z. endNight rejoiced and was hung out to dry. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6224 00:38Z 01:01Z 100 O -7.30 -1.60 42 ignore ---=== 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 39961, plate -9999 ------- 00:47 39961 0.0 bias ----- sequence 39961, plate 0 ------- 00:56 39962 10.0 flat 00:58 39963 2.0 arc ----- sequence 39964, plate 2545 ------- 01:04 39964 10.0 flat 01:06 39965 2.0 arc 01:26 39966 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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 00:48Z 8 0 0.99999 99 1369 30 121 30.0 14.2 7 88 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 00:43Z 58 46 8 85 (E) 603 - MstlyCldy 01:15Z 56 45 13 75 (ENE) 603 - MstlyCldy 01:45Z 54 46 11 80 (E) 593 - Overcast 02:16Z 54 45 12 70 (ENE) 650 - Overcast 02:47Z 54 44 16 66 (ENE) 589 - Overcast 03:19Z 52 45 11 17 (NNE) 614 - Overcast 03:51Z 49 47 6 111 (ESE) 705 - Overcast 04:24Z 44 42 33 64 (ENE) 595 - Overcast 04:56Z 44 43 24 62 (ENE) 512 - Overcast 05:28Z 44 42 24 66 (ENE) 605 - Overcast 06:00Z 44 43 13 78 (ENE) 591 - Overcast 06:32Z 44 43 25 74 (ENE) 372 - Overcast 07:04Z 44 43 18 79 (E) 310 - Overcast 07:36Z 45 43 13 94 (E) 264 - Overcast 08:09Z 45 43 16 64 (ENE) 265 - Overcast 08:41Z 44 44 19 73 (ENE) 195 - Overcast 09:13Z 45 44 22 67 (ENE) 182 - Overcast 09:45Z 45 44 20 71 (ENE) 118 - Overcast ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- Telescope parked at 121,30 with Cart 8 (Plate 2545) mounted Counterweights at 250 Spectro autofill reconnected No interlocks bypassed Dewar weights at 10:15Z Imager: 127lbs 19psi Spectro: 107lbs 25psi ---=== SOFTWARE USED ===--- IOP/SOP: v4_24_0b Watcher: v2_34_0 MCP: v6_3_2 TPM: tpm_v3_3_0 AstroDa: v15_12_1 TCC: TCC 2.7.2.1 August 6 2004 sdssProcedures: v2_18 SoS: v5_1_0 hoggPT: v1_6_9 plate-mapper: v4_3_1 ---=== MIRROR NUMBERS ===--- PRIMARY: -------- Scale: 1.000000 MIGS TONIGHT NOMINAL Axial A -5.8540 -5.8440 Axial B -5.6850 -5.6770 Axial C 0.9410 0.9420 Trans D -9.9980 -9.9940 Lateral E 10.3632 10.3759 Lateral F 11.9380 11.9380 GALILS Commanded: 4700. -2450. 3000. -7800. 3300. 3000.
