APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Saturday June 26, 2010 (MJD 55374) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dmitry Bizyaev Elena Malanushenko ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! 26 Jun 2010 55374.0 0.95 03:57 10:16 15:14 21:34 MARVELS 7.3 hours ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The first part of night it was clouds and little rain, but became better ~6Z. We observed three marvels plates: Cart 5 plate 3904, side B Cart 9 plate 3514, sides A and B. Broken fibers in the log. We made Dan Long's astigmatism corrector test. SOPGUI did not do guider flat on gotoField for Marvels. It failed and stopped at calibs process even we did not select it. We investigated what was wrong. We found out that gotoField command line output behaved in the same manner, so the problem was located in sop itself. We applied the first aid when sop messed up, "mcp info & sop restart", and it fixed the problem for now. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- 23:28Z ThAr ON 00:05Z All system checked and they ok Cart 15 was mounted, plate 3954, sparse plugged.

BIAS NULL Cart 5 plate 3904, side B During gotoField there was large fiducial error on alt, we needed to correct it. Found guider stars with guess offset. Started observation but the rotator abort happened just in a minut. Axis brake was been seen on old MCP GUI but not in STUI Status. We aborted the integration, went to field again, and started another exposure. In the middle of observations, 15-30 min, there was thick clouds and pmt dropped below 10, but return to normal values after that. seeing 1.8" T06:34:57.660 5 3904B 3000. 18. 712.

TIO NULL Cart 9 plate 3514, side A gotoField using SOP GUI and only "slew" option. It did this right. We tried to use gotoFiled using log>command line but got the same problem with sop, it tried to do boss calibs for marvels cartridge. So, SOP GUI just respond to sop status.

It was not SOP GUI problem, but the problem of sop actor, which is messed up sometime, and it was happened now. In this case we might try "sop restart". We tried and and it helped:-)) Now, SOPGUI gotoField is working properly for marvels plates. Cart 9, plate 3514, side B Found stars on GTF, Seeingt 1.7" T08:46:20.750 9 3514B 3000. 27. 885.
