So now everytime the "center sun" routine runs there will be a new routine that homes the filter wheel too. This should happen throughout the day before each observing sequence, the cals, and the High Res data sequences. The following message displays in the IDL GUI "pspt_center_sun homing filter" when it happens, and you can see the PC messages showing that it is happening. It looks like it is working. ___end___ PSPT COMMENT BY DARRYL: Tue Jun 29 18:29:43 GMT 2010 Observing. ___end___ Tue Jun 29 18:52:58 GMT 2010 MKIV End Patrol Tue Jun 29 18:53:05 GMT 2010 MKIV Start Cal NOTE BY DARRYL: Tue Jun 29 18:55:51 GMT 2010 Just felt a decent sized earthquake, short duration, just one big bump. ___end___ Tue Jun 29 19:11:46 GMT 2010 MKIV End Cal Tue Jun 29 19:14:50 GMT 2010 MKIV Start Correct MKIV COMMENT BY DARRYL: Tue Jun 29 19:14:56 GMT 2010 Running a Correct as part of some adjustments and measurements requested by Joan. ___end___ Tue Jun 29 19:16:21 GMT 2010 MKIV End Correct MKIV COMMENT BY DARRYL: Tue Jun 29 19:39:13 GMT 2010 I put the height mask on the occulter at the primary focus and will now do 2 calibrations. ___end___ Tue Jun 29 19:40:10 GMT 2010 MKIV Start Patrol MKIV COMMENT BY DARRYL: Tue Jun 29 19:40:26 GMT 2010 I accidentally started Patrol, it will stop ASAP and go into the calibrations. ___end___ **MKIV PROBLEM COMMENT BY DARRYL**: Tue Jun 29 19:45:54 GMT 2010 Barrel was stopped at CCW limit for some unknown reason, manually moved off limit but couldn't get Cal to start, reset KCC to fix. ___end___ Tue Jun 29 19:52:58 GMT 2010 MKIV Start Cal Tue Jun 29 20:11:37 GMT 2010 MKIV End Cal Tue Jun 29 20:15:35 GMT 2010 MKIV Start Cal MKIV COMMENT BY DARRYL: Tue Jun 29 20:15:40 GMT 2010 Running the 2nd height mask calibration now. ___end___ Tue Jun 29 20:34:27 GMT 2010 MKIV End Cal MKIV COMMENT BY DARRYL: Tue Jun 29 20:42:33 GMT 2010 Going up into dome to remove the height mask and improve the "gain" by better aligning the camera. ___end___ WEATHER COMMENT: Tue Jun 29 22:06:37 GMT 2010 Clouds are passing over. ___end___ **MKIV PROBLEM COMMENT BY DARRYL**: Tue Jun 29 22:06:56 GMT 2010 I can't get the camera aligned any better yet, and now it is off and clouds are present, taking a much needed break. ___end___ **PSPT PROBLEM COMMENT BY DARRYL**: Tue Jun 29 22:10:45 GMT 2010 Restarting in coordination with Alice. ___end___ Tue Jun 29 22:40:42 GMT 2010 CHIP End Patrol **MKIV PROBLEM COMMENT BY DARRYL**: Tue Jun 29 22:28:38 GMT 2010 I shimmed the SK lens just before the camera out a little, this extra adjustment has been needed for a long time. Thick clouds, mk4 may be out of service until I get back on Sunday. Camera is not aligned. ___end___ WEATHER COMMENT: Wed Jun 30 00:26:27 GMT 2010 Foggy. ___end___ **MKIV PROBLEM COMMENT BY DARRYL**: Wed Jun 30 00:26:40 GMT 2010 The camera alignment is completely off, the mk4 can't get data until I finish aligning it. The clouds came in quick and thick and I wasn't able to get the alignment back to something usable. I will continue the camera alignment ASAP. ___end___ Wed Jun 30 00:29:22 GMT 2010 MkIV 16_54.rawmk4 17_29.rawmk4 18_04.rawmk4 18_43.rawmk4 c18_53.rawmk4 16_57.rawmk4 17_32.rawmk4 18_07.rawmk4 18_46.rawmk4 c18_59.rawmk4 17_00.rawmk4 17_35.rawmk4 18_10.rawmk4 18_49.rawmk4 c19_05.rawmk4 17_03.rawmk4 17_38.rawmk4 18_13.rawmk4 18_56.rawmk4 c19_52.rawmk4 17_06.rawmk4 17_41.rawmk4 18_16.rawmk4 19_02.rawmk4 c19_59.rawmk4 17_09.rawmk4 17_44.rawmk4 18_19.rawmk4 19_08.rawmk4 c20_05.rawmk4 17_11.rawmk4 17_47.rawmk4 18_22.rawmk4 19_56.rawmk4 c20_15.rawmk4 17_14.rawmk4 17_50.rawmk4 18_28.rawmk4 20_02.rawmk4 c20_21.rawmk4 17_17.rawmk4 17_53.rawmk4 18_32.rawmk4 20_08.rawmk4 c20_27.rawmk4 17_20.rawmk4 17_56.rawmk4 18_35.rawmk4 20_18.rawmk4 17_23.rawmk4 17_58.rawmk4 18_38.rawmk4 20_24.rawmk4 17_26.rawmk4 18_01.rawmk4 18_41.rawmk4 20_31.rawmk4
