	Science!
---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===---


 We'll be using the old pointing model this months, could the day staff
mount a cartridge instead of eng camera please?

imager tested and it's alife. 

spectrographs are fine too, yet I still got a problem with running: 
apo_plotbias, 37464   (the dark current frame). It has to be a lock file
problem, since I can run apo_plotbias command on today's data. If someone
knows which file has to unlocked, please let me know - thank you :).

Primary and secondary mirrors homed/relaxed.

monthly system checkout.
------------------------

iop v4_18_0 and AstroDa v15_11 are setup and working (both imager bias and 
spectrographs were taken). 

Steph run endNight on all bright time nights without any problems.

New fiducial tables were checked (v1_46), but not installed. We decided that 
the old ones will do since the temperature during the last month is similar
to the current one. No pointing model will be necessary.

Mirrors homed and relaxed.

endNight run properly.
