APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Wednesday March 19, 2008 (MJD 54545) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Audrey Simmons s.watters ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Nothing ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- We took some imager calibrations and some signal on plate 2253. While running the image calibrator the session froze when we were nearly done with QE on r 1 and we couldn't get it going again before we were supposed to get on sky. This means the last 4 exposures for QE on r 1 need to be taken. While we were having these problems it would take 4+ minutes to start an IOP session and we had to log out the imager port to take a "normal" bias. It took several tries to then end that bias because "CAMERA im: FAILURE on ftelnet: connection error in ftelnet: connection refused Error: cannot take control of camera line". We ran the PT without opening the lower dome slit (dropout) as a test to see if we even need to open it. It looks like it's good (by eye) to a zenith angle of ~60 degrees. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- I ran goSpecFocus before taking cals so exposures 51150 and 51151 are useless. All systems checked and working. We didn't make any spectro collimation moves so we're still set for focus at ~0C. Night: ----- Imager Calibrations Run 7378 00:15Z MSP Bias: Frame 1 00:16Z QE on u 4: First exposure: Frame 2 - idR-7378-u4-2.fit Last exposure: Frame 33 - idR-7378-u4-33.fit 02:14Z QE on u 5: First exposure: Frame 34 - idR-7378-u5-35.fit Last exposure: Frame 66 - idR-7378-u5-66.fit 04:16Z QE on u 6: First exposure: Frame 67 - idR-7378-u6-67.fit Last exposure: Frame 100 - idR-7378-u6-100.fit We accidently made a keystroke in the MSP/IOP window so it started taking these measurements a second time (frame 101 - idR-7378-u6-101.fit) but we stopped it after that first frame. 06:33Z QE on r 1 First exposure: Frame 102 - idR-7378-r1-102.fit During Frame 144 MSP/IOP froze for > 10 minutes. Last exposure (Still 4 more exposures to go on this chip but it's misbehaving ["can't read cameraData"] and we need to get on sky. The network is also very slow *again*. Taking 4+ minutes to start an iop session. Ultimately we had to log out the imager port to take a "normal" bias.): Frame 143 - idR-7378-r1-143.fit 09:34Z CART 4, PLATE 2253, SEGUE121.
