APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday October 22, 2009 (MJD 55127) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Alaina Shelden Viktor Malanushenko ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Tonight was partly cloudy sky. We can not worked with imager. So we observed all BOSS cartridges: 10,11,12,13,14 and received 21 exposures of 900 sec each: Plate 3611, cart.10 -- 4*900 sec Plate 3540, cart.12 -- 3*900 sec Plate 3588, cart.13 -- 8*900 sec Plate 3655, cart.14 -- 6*900 sec We could not find guide stars on Cart.11. Kyle also asked for plate 3647, which we don't see on the on the database website? Also, Kyle asked for plate 3611, Cartridge 10, which we observed tonight. We left it, as well. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- 23:00Z Restarted servers 23:19Z Tried to take an imager bias, got the following error: im> goDrift -bias Error: {ad1 {ICC ad1 (crate 3, board 0) is not available Bad ICC}} Tried setting inst=imager, and got the same error. 23:20Z Disk space: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 142G 124G 12G 92% / /dev/sda1 99M 30M 64M 33% /boot /dev/sdb1 917G 850G 21G 98% /data sdssfiles1p:/data1/data 1.8T 271G 1.6T 15% /files hub25mp:/home 92G 76G 16G 83% /home_hub25m 23:24Z All actors present and accounted for. 23:25Z boss exposure bias frame 102734 23:26Z gcamera dark time=20 23:30Z boss sp1cam raw=1 tcheck 2 tcheck, T=-119.6C, -99.6C 23:31Z boss sp2cam raw=1 tcheck 2 tcheck, T=-121.1C, -101.6C 23:32Z sop hartmann frames 102735-736 **Cart 11 sp1 sp2 ------------------------------ temp 10.4 9.2 b -21.5 2.0 r 2668 1164 pre motorPosition=17237,17704,17999,29024,29021,29024 post motorPosition=19897,20373,20665,30188,30208,30207 23:47Z sop hartmann to double check focus frames 102737-738 sp1 sp2 ------------------------------ temp 10.4 9.2 b -12.7 4.9 r -213 -97 pre motorPosition=17237,17704,17999,29024,29021,29024 00:00Z Had to reboot imager crates.
