APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday April 6, 2007 (MJD 54197) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Observing team: Elena Malanushenko (day) Shannon Watters Audrey Simmons Steph Snedden Dan Oravetz ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- ShakeDown and Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The night was lost due to heavy clouds, rain, high humidty, and lightening. Completed the remaining shakedown tasks. All completed tasks from last night (4/5/07)and tonight (4/6/07) include: 1)We took spectro biases and darks. 2)Exercised spectrographs and guider. They work just fine. 3)Pointing model: We did not got a new pointing model. But we observed three cartridges tonight, and found guiding stars on goto field on all three. So we think we may do not need a new pointing model. 4)PR6084: With astroDa V15_13_1, TCC header keywords are confirmed to be written in sdR headers correctly in both frames moving and non-moving telescope during readout. Spectro and pt data taking work properly, but no imager data taking was tested. 5)PR7123: Checked and found okay. PR has been closed. 6)PR6888: Spectro and pt data taking work without error. No imager data taking tested. 7)sdssProcedure v2_26 checked and found good. Watcher messages (problems?): We had watcher TCC warning message about disconnected sensors and MCP messages about low imager and spectro dewer when they actually at 215 and 130 lb (see problem section). They did not came back after being cleared. 8) Completed and checked imager bias (run 6770) and flat (run 6771). We got a watcher error at 08:15Z with the spectro secondary dewer pressure faults. We checked and saw that the dewers have not filled for over 12 hours. We immediately hooked up the lines and they automatically started filling (See problem section). Another watcher error came up at 08:30Z, saying that the ln2 was empty. We forced stopped and started the secondary fill (problem section). ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- The telescope has been checked and prepared for obserations. All systems work fine. As part of ShakeDown we used test version of iop v4_32_0. Telecsope is focused on 9C. Clouds and rain and radar return nearby. We have to wait and do not open now. Night: ------ Did not open due to heavy clouds, rain, high humidity and lightening. 07:24Z Mounted imager to start bias (run 6770) and flat (run 6771).
