APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Wednesday November 11, 2009 (MJD 55147) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dan Oravetz Dmitry Bizyaev Steph Snedden (afternoon) Support: Craig Loomis (PY) Paul Harding (CWRU) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- BOSSScience! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- No data taken this night because of high humidity and cloudy sky. Craig worked with boss icc and actors in the evening. An RJ15 connector has shredded wires at the IPM card (same rack at TPM2 card in the lower telescope's enclosure). Probably it caused disappearing of some of numbers in TPM menu 2 days ago and tonight. We performed a cloudy night task from Kyle's list on wiki with cart. 12. Shutter status during long sequence if hartmann exposures showed "Closed" instead of "Right". Ticket #426. During tests r2 and b2 images failed to write on hub25m HDD, while r1,b1 pare was written. No error messages, boss status was ok. Ticket #427 Failed again, but this time for other camera. Ticket #428. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- No problems at telescope during afternoon checkout. Nick looked at the Lindy cart in order to design some simple ergonomic improvements. 23:00Z - Opened doors, started enclosure ventilation cart. 10 is mounted Craig released control of the telescope with these versions running: boss v2_0_3, sop v1_0_3, guider v1_0_15 Removed MJDs 55128 - 55135 data from disk, plus some old ARCSAT data from sdsshost2. The disk space is now: /dev/sdb1 917G 835G 36G 96% /data sdssfiles1p:/data1/data 1.8T 64G 1.8T 4% /files 2:16 sdsshost2.apo.nmsu.edu % df -kh Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 142G 123G 12G 92% / /dev/sda1 99M 30M 64M 33% /boot /dev/sdb1 917G 835G 36G 96% /data sdssfiles1p:/data1/data 1.8T 64G 1.8T 4% /files hub25mp:/home 92G 85G 7.4G 92% /home_hub25m Night: ------ 00:15Z dome opened Sky is partly cloudy but clouds are not think. 00:45Z We noticed that TPM starts reporting "unknowns" for LN2 scales weigth, temp[erature , etc. Steph called Fritz. He checked and said that this is not connected to overloading of the local network (UVa students consume almost all DHCP addresses yesterday, so new connectiins were hard to establish. But no this time, switches /routers are doing ok. We reseted TPM2 card in the lower enclosure. Also, we noticed that a connection wire (looks like RJ15 or RJ45) looks shredded, some loose wires are seen. We reseted the IPM card too (cause we barely touched the wires but the shaking was significant. 01:20Z Robert and Craig worked today and updated the versions of actors and ICC. Now we see that forst Hartmann exposre comes as "Closed", and second one comes as "Left". Should be Left-Right is "traditional" (yesterday's, for example) is used, or Right-Left if the fresh new version is running (that Craig implements) We cannot run SoS3 on these hartmans because the "collimate" code is confused and doesn't understand that these images are hartmans. Craig said that the images are correct, but incorrect keywords go to their headers. 01:40Z cloud camera stopped working. Following Wendell's directions we checked power supply, it works fine. Camera is taking images but they are blank. We contacted Fritz, he checked but didn't find any solid reason for the failure. Nevertheless, we tried to stop/start the irsc few times from the web menue, and finally got it back to work. 02:10Z Update from Craig: he can roll back to the previous version, but right now is cloudy, and we cannot take good data any way. We opt to let Craig work with scripts longer and see if we can get hartmans and other things fixed. 04:15Z dome closed because of rising humidity (hits 80%) and cloudy sky. Humidity and clouds don't want to improve, so we started a cloudy night task (from November observing starategy on wiki).
