APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Wednesday December 1, 2010 (MJD 55532) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dmitry Bizyaev Audrey Simmons Kaike Pan (afternoon) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Clear night with good seeing. Observed: Cart 11, plate 4292 - DONE Cart 14, plate 4359 Cart 12, plate 4353 - DONE Cart 16, plate 4424 - DONE Cart 13, plate 4442 - DONE Cart 15, plate 4441 - DONE (with extra signal) Cart 17, plate 3813 - DONE (with extra signal) Cart 10, plate 3818 - DONE (with extra signal) More work is needed with cartridge 18. Please see afternoon section of log. Red b1 WSIGMA values for arcs taken with cartridges 11, 13, 14, 16, and 17. We recieved a critical alert at 11:15Z complaining about the SP2LN2fill and SP2SecondaryDewerPressure. We stopped observing and force-filled the dewers. Everything was happy after that. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- All actors and systems were checked, no major problem to report. We did some tests on collimations on different cartridges and telescope positions, here are results: Mean offsets (in pixels/degree or steps) cart # position Temp B1 R1 B2 R2 13 Stow 6.2 -0.84/16.7 -0.03/-213 0.04/-0.7 0.06/384 13 Zenith 6.0 -0.80/15.8 0.05/298 0.18/-3.2 0.07/427 18 Zenith 5.5 -0.98/19.4 -0.09/-597 0.36/-6.6 0.27/1750 10 Zenith 5.3 -1.21/24.2 -0.33/-2134 0.05/-0.9 -0.09/-555 11 Zenith 5.2 -1.19/23.4 -0.37/-2391 0.13/-2.3 -0.01/-42 11 Stow 5.1 -1.16/23.2 -0.37/-2391 0.09/-1.6 0.05/341 11 Stow 5.0 -0.84/16.7 -0.02/-128 0.08/-1.4 0.04/256 We moved B1 blue ring by + 17 degree, then another hartmann requests -9 degree, then we moved -6 degree. Things seems okay then. We took flat and arc on cartridge 18, its XMID values are out of spec by 20 pixel on SP1 (#1 slithead was moved wrong way). The frame number is 122989. 22:40Z started ventilation. Night: ------- 00:02Z - Opened enclosure and filled spectrographs. 00:22Z - The short hartmanns failed, complained of large blue and red camera moves. Took several full hartmanns afterwards, and fixed the blue camera ring (when the blue sp1 camera asked for 10 degree move, we needed to move it 5 degrees in order for the next hartmann to be in focus. Hartmanns 123007-8, transient error. 01:00Z - gotoField cart 11, BOSS plate 4292. GSFOGTF. 01:01Z - Hartmanns 123011-12 all cameras in focus. 01:09Z - 15 min exposure.
