With this off all instrument temps other then rockwell and ilx would have been constant. I have turned this back on so going forward the fits files should see changes in LCVR, BODY,BASE,RACK and Optical rail tempatures. ___end___ Mon May 05 18:16:54 GMT 2014 COMP Start Patrol CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Mon May 5 18:19:49 GMT 2014 Testing writing temp to fits . ___end___ Mon May 05 18:20:20 GMT 2014 COMP End Patrol Mon May 05 18:24:22 GMT 2014 COMP Start Patrol Mon May 05 18:27:44 GMT 2014 COMP End Patrol CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Mon May 5 19:10:16 GMT 2014 Looks like the cropico isn't resonding via serial. More troubleshooting to figure out why. ___end___ Mon May 05 19:17:32 GMT 2014 COMP Start Patrol CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Mon May 5 19:17:39 GMT 2014 Sky seems clear enough for a meadowlark test. Right now I think the two D3040s are in the proper order. With the Polariaztion (two output) unit addressed as the first unit, and the Wavelenght (four output) unit addressed as the second. ___end___ CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Mon May 5 19:28:52 GMT 2014 We have corona. ___end___ Mon May 05 19:29:17 GMT 2014 COMP End Patrol Mon May 05 19:30:07 GMT 2014 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol GENERAL OBSERVATORY COMMENT BY berkey: Mon May 5 19:29:30 GMT 2014 SGS alignment ___end___ CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Mon May 5 19:30:59 GMT 2014 Trying a test to swap the address of the two meadowlarks to ensure this kills the corona. ___end___ Mon May 05 19:34:17 GMT 2014 COMP Start Patrol Mon May 05 19:42:19 GMT 2014 COMP End Patrol CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Mon May 5 19:42:49 GMT 2014 No corona seen with the addresses were swapped.

I think the issue is serial related but I am out of ideas as to what to try next. ___end___ CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Tue May 6 02:13:46 GMT 2014 Looks like the way to deal with miss-addressed meadowlark d3040s is to shutdown the comp.vi then power cycle the lower D3040. By forcing the bottom D3040 to be the last started in windows, the D3040's will be seen in the order we want by comp.vi ___end___
