Jon rebooted it. Spectro focus checked but no adjustment made. Still set for about 8 C. 00:20Z - Fans on, louvers and doors open. Night: ----- 03:20Z - Enclosure off. Opened late due to clouds. 05:19Z - Plate 2677 (cartridge 4), segue. An fk5 was used to acquire the field. We finished this plate in 4 exposures (total 4200 seconds). SoS gave an assortment of whopping fiber, scattered light and sky residual warnings. SoS also gave red monster warnings for frames 43770, 43771 and 43773. We verified that the lift hand paddle was turned off. 06:02Z - Plate 2502 (cartridge 8), legacy. An fk5 was used to acquire the field. We finished this plate in 3 exposures (total 2500 seconds). SoS gave no warnings. 07:08Z - Plate 2509 (cartridge 6), legacy. GSOGTF 14 minutes of idle time due to observer error. We finished this plate in 3 exposures (total 2224 seconds). SoS gave no warnings. 08:29Z - Plate 2515 (cartridge 3), legacy. GSOGTF We finished this plate in 3 exposures (total 2400 seconds). SoS gave no warnings. 09:36Z - Plate 2457 (cartridge 9), segue. GSOGTF We finished this plate (had signal from yesterday). b1 had 14.9 and b2 had 29.9 and we declared it done. SoS gave an assortment of whopping fiber, scattered light and sky residual warnings. 10:33Z - Plate 2121 (cartridge 5), legacy. GSOGTF We finished this plate in 3 exposures (total 2700 seconds) SoS gave no warnings. 11:48Z - Plate 1848 (cartridge 2), legacy. GSOGTF We finished this plate (had signal from yesterday). SoS gave no warnings. 12:21Z - Enclosure on. 12:39Z - sp1 calls for a fill, but sp2 does not.
