EverythingElseCheckedOutFine. Night ============ Tonight's weather looked very much like the two previous night's, i.e., cloudy. So, we waited. 06:15Z The sky seemed to be clearing, and we decided to chance it. 06:41Z We pulled the building, but we had clouds again. 07:00Z Cart 09, plate 1657 (chunk82). The window of opportunity for this plate expired before the clouds cleared, so we moved on to cartridge 07. 08:00Z Cart 07, plate 1857 (seguetest96). We still had thin clouds but were able to locate the Fk5 star. Some of the clouds cleared ~09:05Z, and we finally found the field. Only two exposures were completed, so this plate was not finished. We noticed that SOS reported, "Whopping fibers (may have adverse affect on S/N)." Could someone please check the S/N on this plate to see if the Whopping fibers are having an adverse affect? Thanks. 10:00Z Cart 08, plate 1112 (merged48). We had guide stars on goToField after the offsets were cleared. We got one exposure on this plate before the clouds became a problem again; however, the S/N was not above 2. We declared the exposure bad in SOS. We think this exposure may be declared good on the tape though. Sorry. See Problem Section for Misc. Watcher Errors. endNight finished and was happy. We did an Spectro force-fill. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4694 22:49Z 23:17Z 100 O -36.18 -28.97 62 ignore ---=== 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): y QA Procedures Done (y/n): y UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 27393, plate -9999 ------- 22:47 27393 0.0 bias ----- sequence 27394, plate 1706 ------- 23:02 27394 2.1 arc 23:04 27395 2.1 arc 23:11 27396 10.0 flat 23:13 27397 2.0 arc ----- sequence 27398, plate -9999 ------- 01:22 27398 0.0 bias 01:25 27399 0.0 bias ----- sequence 27400, plate 1657 ------- 06:48 27400 0.0 bias ----- sequence 27401, plate 1857 ------- 09:00 27401 10.0 flat 09:03 27402 2.0 arc 09:28 27403 1200.1 target 09:51 27404 1200.1 target ----- sequence 27405, plate 1112 ------- 10:20 27405 900.1 target 10:32 27406 528.8 target 10:36 27407 10.0 flat 10:38 27408 2.0 arc ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 09:12Z 7 1857 184.11 0.0013 44.10 -0.0007 17.20 -0.0199 1.000050 10:08Z 8 1112 -1.12 -0.0020 57.21 -0.0002 178.97 -0.0153 1.000430 ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== DATA TAPE SUMMARY ===--- Goes: JL7673 Stays: JL7674 ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 01:23Z 3 0 1.00000 0 1230 0 121 30.0 9.5 12 79 09:12Z 7 1857 1.00005 -494 867 75 184 44.1 9.6 8 125 gdr 1.6 10:07Z 8 1112 1.00043 -4244 -2305 50 -1 57.2 9.9 1 117 gdr 1.4 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 22:44Z 53 41 11 71 (ENE) 255 - clouds 23:17Z 52 40 16 57 (ENE) 233 - 23:50Z 50 43 15 71 (ENE) 247 - 00:21Z 48 41 16 72 (ENE) 476 - 00:53Z 47 41 12 2 (N) 205 - clouds 01:26Z 49 40 11 78 (ENE) 301 - 01:57Z 50 38 13 64 (ENE) 265 - 02:29Z 51 38 0 11 (N) 661 - 03:02Z 52 38 4 349 (NNW) 1030 - clouds 03:34Z 51 38 3 353 (NNW) 794 - 04:06Z 52 38 2 75 (ENE) 1003 - 04:38Z 53 38 0 182 (S) 1014 - clouds 05:10Z 51 37 1 112 (ESE) 681 - 05:43Z 50 37 6 104 (ESE) 266 - 06:15Z 52 36 2 49 (NE) 599 - 06:46Z 52 37 1 295 (WNW) 964 - clouds 07:16Z 52 37 0 232 (SW) 837 - 07:48Z 50 37 6 182 (S) 271 - 08:21Z 49 37 6 180 (S) 393 - 08:53Z 49 38 5 108 (ESE) 385 - clouds 09:24Z 49 38 2 122 (ESE) 417 - 09:57Z 49 38 2 141 (SE) 425 - 10:30Z 49 38 1 191 (S) 502 - 11:02Z 50 37 1 187 (S) 482 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 02:50Z doors cracked, fans on, louvers opened. 06:41Z Enclosure off 10:50Z Enclosure on, fans off, louvers closed.
