Before doing the PM I noticed a smug in the eastcal,westcal and flat images for this morning (3-4-13 18:11), this turned out to match a large smuge of the same shape on the gong lens. This site might help gong monitoring. ___end___ Mon Mar 4 21:38:13 GMT 2013 CHIP Start Patrol Mon Mar 4 21:39:06 GMT 2013 MKIV End Patrol Mon Mar 4 21:58:48 GMT 2013 MKIV End Cal Mon Mar 4 21:58:57 GMT 2013 MKIV Start Patrol Mon Mar 4 22:05:43 GMT 2013 CHIP Start Patrol Mon Mar 4 23:01:39 GMT 2013 CHIP End Patrol Mon Mar 04 23:10:37 GMT 2013 COMP End Patrol Mon Mar 4 23:15:59 GMT 2013 MKIV End Patrol Tue Mar 5 00:20:02 GMT 2013 CHIP Start Patrol Tue Mar 5 00:22:25 GMT 2013 MKIV Start Patrol Tue Mar 05 00:22:54 GMT 2013 COMP Start Patrol Tue Mar 5 00:29:54 GMT 2013: PSPT Abort Patrol Tue Mar 5 00:30:08 GMT 2013: PSPT Start Patrol Tue Mar 5 00:32:48 GMT 2013: PSPT Abort Patrol Tue Mar 5 00:53:50 GMT 2013: PSPT Start Patrol Tue Mar 05 01:13:16 GMT 2013 COMP End Patrol Tue Mar 5 01:15:46 GMT 2013 MKIV End Patrol Tue Mar 5 01:19:29 GMT 2013 MKIV Start Patrol Tue Mar 05 01:20:34 GMT 2013 COMP Start Patrol Tue Mar 05 01:27:35 GMT 2013 COMP End Patrol Tue Mar 5 01:31:30 GMT 2013 MKIV End Patrol CHIP COMMENT BY GREG: Tue Mar 5 01:37:56 GMT 2013 New temperature controller installed on the Tek Temp chiller. The heating function is set for 24C. The cooling function is disabled, the chiller part is not working properly, it heats when running. I suspected that cooling function was previously not working prior to the RTD failure. The new controller doesn.t supply the low voltage VDC for coil of the SSR present so an alternative supply was added (there was not an suitable replacement power relay on site.) The system was installed and observed for functionality. Chip is back online now and ready for use.
