APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday May 5, 2006 (MJD 53861) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Kaike Pan ET crew: Jian Ge, Scott Fleming Support: Jon Brinkmann ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- ET Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- We obtained templates and science data for four ET plates: 8025, 8021, 8027 and 8028. A photometric but bad seeing night. Dust levels were from 2000 to 3100. Integrated dust counts was approximately 23K. Problem: During afternoon checkout, we found that MONX3 lost its window manager, and that all servers died. See log for the detail. No guiding star infor readed for fiber #6 when loading cartridge 3, plate 8028 (see log). ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- During afternoon checkout, all servers were found died and MonX3 lost the window manager, and servers could not restart with "start_servers -K" and other usually commands, Jon was here to help me to get them re-running. Dust (~3K) and wind speed were relative high. No early ventilation. Night: ------ 02:35Z cart 9, plt E8025. F5 star was used to acquiring the field. seeing was variable and bad, 1.5 - 2.3". 04:45Z cart 6, plt E8021. Guessing offsets got stars. Seeing still bad. 07:08Z cart 2, plt E8027. stars on GTF. Seeing is really bad, about 2.7, at the begining. Partially because altitude is low, 48? Seeing danced around, from 1.4 to 2.8". 09:15Z cart 3, plt E8028. Stars on GTF. When loading cartridge, we got the following message: Found No Guide Stars for fiber ID 6 Coordinates are 285.05313000000001 45.203682999999998 So no guiding star in fiber #6. For most time, seeing was about 2.0 or worse. 11:50 endNight rejoced. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== 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): QA Procedures Done (y/n): UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 39116, plate -9999 ------- 00:43 39116 0.0 bias 02:06 39117 0.0 bias ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 03:00Z 9 8025 25.56 -0.0002 57.51 0.0012 201.20 0.0091 1.000190 05:05Z 6 8021 94.95 0.0023 50.86 0.0035 251.04 -0.0105 1.000250 07:28Z 2 8027 120.39 0.0022 48.70 0.0018 -93.12 0.0108 1.000190 09:34Z 3 8028 131.57 0.0015 68.23 0.0001 -63.35 0.0115 1.000110 ---=== 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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 03:00Z 9 8025 1.00019 -1876 -334 60 26 57.5 9.9 13 262 -- 1.5 05:05Z 6 8021 1.00025 -2469 -815 50 95 50.8 8.8 13 269 -- 1.8 07:28Z 2 8027 1.00019 -1876 -277 90 120 48.7 7.7 14 295 -- 2.7 09:34Z 3 8028 1.00011 -1086 375 140 132 68.3 6.1 21 302 -- 1.7 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 00:59Z 55 10 26 262 (W) 3119 - 01:31Z 52 7 25 257 (WSW) 3081 - 02:02Z 50 5 17 253 (WSW) 2865 - 02:33Z 50 4 19 263 (W) 2576 - 03:04Z 49 5 18 257 (WSW) 2335 - 03:34Z 49 4 13 259 (W) 2501 - 04:07Z 49 4 9 264 (W) 2567 - 04:39Z 48 4 6 316 (NW) 2592 - 05:11Z 47 4 12 277 (W) 2568 - 05:43Z 47 4 12 272 (W) 2499 - 06:15Z 47 4 14 261 (W) 2452 - 06:48Z 46 4 15 274 (W) 2464 - 07:20Z 45 4 11 267 (W) 2314 - 07:53Z 45 6 16 296 (WNW) 2348 - 08:25Z 44 6 19 302 (WNW) 2366 - 08:57Z 43 6 18 300 (WNW) 2359 - 09:29Z 42 6 19 306 (NW) 2177 - 10:01Z 41 9 12 318 (NW) 2417 - 10:34Z 41 14 16 301 (WNW) 3254 - 11:06Z 41 13 18 288 (WNW) 3120 - 11:38Z 40 15 14 289 (WNW) 3392 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 01:40Z Doors and louvers opened, fans on and enclosure off. 03:15Z enclosure off, cart 8 mounted. 11:45Z enclosure on, door and louvers closed, fans off. elescope parked at 121,30 with Cart 3 (Plate E8028) mounted Counterweights at 250 Spectro autofill reconnected No interlocks bypassed Dewar weights at 12:05Z Imager: 173 lbs 21 psi Spectro: 278 lbs 21 psi ---=== SOFTWARE USED ===--- IOP/SOP: v4_21_0 Watcher: v2_34_0 MCP: v6_3_2 TPM: tpm_v3_3_0 AstroDa: v15_11_1 TCC: TCC 2.7.2.1 August 6 2004 sdssProcedures: SoS: hoggPT: plate-mapper: ---=== MIRROR NUMBERS ===--- PRIMARY: -------- Scale: 1.000000 MIGS TONIGHT NOMINAL Axial A -5.8540 -5.8440 Axial B -5.6740 -5.6770 Axial C 0.9430 0.9420 Trans D -10.0010 -9.9940 Lateral E 10.3886 10.3759 Lateral F 11.9507 11.9380 GALILS Commanded: 4700. -2450. 3000. -7800. 3300. 3000.
