**PSPT PROBLEM**: Thu Sep 30 18:14:19 GMT 1999
The telescope came up on the sun OK, it is taking data, the image is just
slightly to the lefty of center.  It looks like the Quadcell stage is in
the same Y position, I will watch this during the calibration to see if
it will actually move.  I will probably stop the observing later to try
to align the guiding system.
**PSPT PROBLEM**: Thu Sep 30 19:07:56 GMT 1999
I could see the Y direction movement of the Quadcell, so it does move on
command.  Yesterday I used the "xys goto ..." command without success on
that axis (X axis worked).  I'll try the "axis # goto" today.
**PSPT PROBLEM**: Thu Sep 30 19:33:54 GMT 1999
There were some fuzzy images taken during the flat section of the cal.
Bumping the spar can cause the fast mirror to go unstable, and bumping
it again in the correct direction can also make it stop.  I'll try
turning down the gain(s) once I figure out where they are.

MkIII PAU
**PSPT PROBLEM**: Thu Sep 30 21:33:27 GMT 1999
I'm trying to get the quadcell and ccd aligned but have run into problems,
waiting for Haosheng to call back.  I was able to get manual images but
can't disply them.

I actually have some time to work on this but since it was stalled and
Haosheng couldn't get back to me I cycled the Sparc power to clear the
stall, brute force but it has been done before without any problems.
Then I tried a few more times unsuccessfully to get images on the
display. Then I lined up the beamsplitter on the lens by eye while the
guider servo was on, then ran an ephmcal.  I'll have to try Haoshengs
suggestions another day when I can talk to him as I try them.  For now
I'll try one more data set to make sure it works for tomorrow.  There is
still no easy way to do a small data set when starting obs from scratch
so I have to get it going now at the expense of doing more on the
guiding troubleshooting.  So besides the ephmcal the only thing I 
chnaged was the mirror softaware gains, they were at -25 and I turned 
those gains down (smaller absolute value) to -10.
