The DIM cables have now been re-routed through the polar bearing to get them a shielding from the rest of the instrumentation. So far this was not enough to solve the noise. ___end___ Mon Mar 16 18:59:59 GMT 2015 COMP Start Patrol Mon Mar 16 19:28:28 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Mon Mar 16 20:13:53 GMT 2015 KCOR End Patrol Mon Mar 16 20:13:54 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Calibration script: c:\kcor\mlso-calibration22deg.ini Mon Mar 16 20:29:48 GMT 2015 KCOR End Calibration Script Mon Mar 16 20:30:05 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Mon Mar 16 20:30:05 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Mon Mar 16 21:01:13 GMT 2015 KCOR End Patrol Mon Mar 16 21:01:22 GMT 2015 COMP End Patrol GENERAL OBSERVATORY COMMENT BY berkey: Mon Mar 16 21:01:24 GMT 2015 Some dome occulting seen in kcor.

Kind of washing out the kcor images and leading to high sintilotaion on shabar. It also looks like the low clouds may move in over the next little bit. ___end___ Tue Mar 17 00:10:48 GMT 2015 KCOR End Patrol Tue Mar 17 00:11:23 GMT 2015 COMP End Patrol Tue Mar 17 01:15:17 GMT 2015 COMP Start Patrol CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Tue Mar 17 01:14:18 GMT 2015 Testing some logic to pasue the comp obseving for a few minutes which clouds pass by the observatory.

While doing "Run Cookbook" if the Clouds button is pressed the cover will be put in (if it is not already in) a note will be put into the log, and comp will go into a wait ........ To exit the wait state the CLOUDS button can be unpressed (unchecked?) then the cover will be returned it is pervious state, a note will be put into the log and observing will continue on the next recipe. If Exit Cookbook is pressed: the cover will be left in, a note will be put into the log and the cookbook will be exited (as happend before the clouds feature). ___end___
