I have been working on bringing everything back up and have most everything booted up. I'll begin to startup instruments shortly. ___end___ WEATHER COMMENT: Sat Jan 19 18:29:18 GMT 2008 Scatterd cirrus, wind southeast 5-10 mph, temp 32F. Some snow and ice on upper 3-4 miles of the road. ___end___ WEATHER COMMENT: Sat Jan 19 18:59:28 GMT 2008 Fog/mist blowing up from southeast, domes closed. ___end___ Sat Jan 19 20:44:43 GMT 2008 CHIP Start Patrol Sat Jan 19 20:45:04 GMT 2008 PICS Start Patrol Sat Jan 19 20:53:50 GMT 2008 CHIP End Patrol Sat Jan 19 20:56:46 GMT 2008 MKIV Start Patrol Sat Jan 19 22:07:37 GMT 2008 MKIV End Patrol **PSPT PROBLEM**: Sat Jan 19 22:15:52 GMT 2008 Can't get pspt to run, it hangs during startup at "Take 3 Dark Frames ...". I've tryed rebooting the sun with the pc shut off and also manually entering "exp" on the pc keyboard. The pc seems to be getting commands from the sun but the sun is not getting the replies.?? ___end___ Sat Jan 19 22:27:15 GMT 2008 MKIV End Cal Sat Jan 19 22:27:21 GMT 2008 MKIV Start Patrol Sat Jan 19 23:34:07 GMT 2008 CHIP Start Patrol Sat Jan 19 23:35:41 GMT 2008 CHIP End Patrol Sat Jan 19 23:49:39 GMT 2008 PICS End Patrol WEATHER COMMENT: Sat Jan 19 23:57:50 GMT 2008 Orographic clouds are beginning to degrade images. ___end___ Sat Jan 19 23:59:47 GMT 2008 CHIP Start Patrol Sun Jan 20 00:00:53 GMT 2008 CHIP End Patrol Sun Jan 20 00:05:12 GMT 2008 PICS Start Patrol Sun Jan 20 00:10:04 GMT 2008 PICS End Patrol Sun Jan 20 00:13:46 GMT 2008 MKIV End Patrol WEATHER COMMENT: Sun Jan 20 00:13:56 GMT 2008 In orographic clouds, instruments idled. ___end___ **CHIP PROBLEM**: Sun Jan 20 00:22:00 GMT 2008 I have been unable to get Chip to run (Pics runs fine). The kii screen comes up OK and patrol starts but it stalls at trying to take the first exposure. Restarting the program or restarting Alakai doesn't help. Using the ps command on kii shows nothing unusual except the process "WaitCame" which suggests that its waiting for the camera. I can't tell if the camera controller is on - its power switch is on and power cord connected and secure but the inicator light is not on (it is just outside my normal field of view and I have no memory of seeing it on or off in the past). ___end___ Sun Jan 20 00:40:58 GMT 2008 MKIV Start Patrol Sun Jan 20 00:41:26 GMT 2008 PICS Start Patrol WEATHER COMMENT: Sun Jan 20 01:17:08 GMT 2008 Clouds have cleared pics and Mk4 restarted. ___end___ **MLSO PROBLEM**: Sun Jan 20 01:18:39 GMT 2008 One of the casualties of yesterdays power surges was the Win98 PC to the left of nene - it would not boot today. The power supply seemed bad so I swapped in the supply from a spare pc we have - it now runs normally. (I still use this pc for email and its also used when we have two people at MLSO.) ___end___ Sun Jan 20 01:39:20 GMT 2008 PICS End Patrol Sun Jan 20 01:39:58 GMT 2008 MKIV End Patrol WEATHER COMMENT: Sun Jan 20 01:41:05 GMT 2008 In clouds again, instruments idled. ___end___ Sun Jan 20 02:01:09 GMT 2008 MkIV 00_01.rawmk4 01_22.rawmk4 21_32.rawmk4 22_36.rawmk4 23_29.rawmk4 00_04.rawmk4 01_25.rawmk4 21_35.rawmk4 22_39.rawmk4 23_32.rawmk4 00_07.rawmk4 01_27.rawmk4 21_38.rawmk4 22_42.rawmk4 23_34.rawmk4 00_10.rawmk4 01_30.rawmk4 21_40.rawmk4 22_44.rawmk4 23_37.rawmk4 00_40.rawmk4 01_33.rawmk4 21_43.rawmk4 22_47.rawmk4 23_40.rawmk4 00_43.rawmk4 01_36.rawmk4 21_46.rawmk4 22_50.rawmk4 23_43.rawmk4 00_46.rawmk4 20_56.rawmk4 21_49.rawmk4 22_53.rawmk4 23_46.rawmk4 00_49.rawmk4 20_59.rawmk4 21_52.rawmk4 22_56.rawmk4 23_49.rawmk4 00_52.rawmk4 21_02.rawmk4 21_55.rawmk4 22_59.rawmk4 23_52.rawmk4 00_55.rawmk4 21_05.rawmk4 21_58.rawmk4 23_02.rawmk4 23_55.rawmk4 00_58.rawmk4 21_08.rawmk4 22_01.rawmk4 23_05.rawmk4 23_58.rawmk4 01_01.rawmk4 21_11.rawmk4 22_04.rawmk4 23_08.rawmk4 c22_07.rawmk4 01_04.rawmk4 21_14.rawmk4 22_11.rawmk4 23_11.rawmk4 c22_14.rawmk4 01_07.rawmk4 21_17.rawmk4 22_17.rawmk4 23_14.rawmk4 c22_20.rawmk4 01_10.rawmk4 21_20.rawmk4 22_23.rawmk4 23_17.rawmk4 01_13.rawmk4 21_23.rawmk4 22_27.rawmk4 23_20.rawmk4 01_16.rawmk4 21_26.rawmk4 22_30.rawmk4 23_23.rawmk4 01_19.rawmk4 21_29.rawmk4 22_33.rawmk4 23_26.rawmk4
