APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday April 12, 2010 (MJD 55299) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dan Oravetz Howard Brewington ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- BOSS Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The night was lost to wind, rain, high humidity, and clouds. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- 23:30Z Started the checkout 23:33Z Restarted the Watcher server 23:35Z Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 142G 130G 4.7G 97% / /dev/sda1 99M 30M 64M 33% /boot /dev/sdb1 917G 847G 25G 98% /data sdssfiles1p:/data1/data 1.8T 115G 1.7T 7% /files 23:42Z Verified that the STUI actors were happy. We called Craig about BOSS since exposures would hang during the flush cycle. He ask that we do 'boss reloadControllers controllers=sp2cam,sp2daq' and 'boss clearExposure' 00:00Z Spectro focus was checked and adjusted. See Problems Sectioon for collimate numbers. 00:45Z Opened doors and turned on fans after rain stopped and humidity decreased. 01:39Z Sunset with clouds to the south and nearby radar returns, so we waited. Night: ------ 02:57Z twilight end 03:00Z Clouds began to clear. 03:10Z Enclosure off, topped-off spectro secondary dewars, checked top/bottom balance, did a test slew, checked fiducial crossings for each axis, and started the DIMM. 03:30Z Enclosure on again as orographic clouds began to form over the site. With wind from the east, seeing was also about 3" as reported by the DIMM. 06:23Z Doors closed and fans off as humidity went over the limit. 08:47Z Wind gusts at 40mph 09:30Z Humidity at 85% 10:32Z endNight finished 11:10Z morning twilight 12:28Z Sunrise ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== 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): QA Procedures Done (y/n): UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 23:35Z 47 31 8 128 (SE) 667 - 00:07Z 42 36 14 119 (ESE) 747 - 00:39Z 42 37 21 106 (ESE) 556 - 01:11Z 42 36 15 108 (ESE) 432 - 01:42Z 41 35 13 112 (ESE) 529 - 02:15Z 45 33 19 122 (ESE) 500 - 02:47Z 43 33 19 120 (ESE) 404 - 03:24Z 44 31 16 126 (SE) 326 - 03:56Z 44 32 24 127 (SE) 386 - 04:28Z 44 33 26 125 (SE) 273 - 05:00Z 43 36 18 122 (ESE) 265 - 05:32Z 42 35 29 124 (SE) 219 - 06:04Z 42 36 21 126 (SE) 330 - 06:36Z 41 37 25 131 (SE) 304 - 07:09Z 42 36 25 146 (SE) 288 - 07:41Z 41 36 26 160 (SSE) 366 - 08:13Z 41 37 24 175 (S) 427 - 08:45Z 42 37 23 171 (S) 596 - 09:17Z 41 37 27 185 (S) 620 - 09:49Z 41 37 10 188 (S) 497 - 10:21Z 40 39 23 180 (S) 586 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 00:45Z Doors and louvers opened, fans on. 03:00Z Enclosure off. 03:30Z Enclosure on 06:23Z Doors and louvers closed, fans off.
