APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Wednesday November 7, 2007 (MJD 54412) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dan Oravetz (swing) Shannon Watters (observer) Dmitry Bizyaev (observer) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- SN & SEGUE Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- SN stripe 82 N was imaged from lambda=113 to -123 (including ramps) with one break in the middle caused by a crate failure. We got cirrus but good seeing. Then we got some signal on spectro cartridges 7 and 4 (didn't finished). ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- All systems checked and focused. Ran 'byebye' on 54404. As of 22:29Z there are 33G available on /data and 584G available on /files. Spectro focus set for ~6C. 23:13Z - Began ventilation. Doors and louvers opened, fans on.

We answered "no" and tried to run procedure from folklore (makerunlog). It didn't help. Then we (actually, Shannon) edit log-par file /astrolog/54412/idReport-54412.par and replace missed numbers shown by -9999 with real numbers. After that endNight ran smoothly! Again, makeRunLog didn't fix things and the newly created txt-file contained wrong lambdas in it (we checked it again after all).
