Summer occulter 991.6 was found to have a small ding on the NE edge which should be the SW region of the kcor image. ___end___ Fri Sep 11 17:27:44 GMT 2015 COMP Start Patrol on cookbook: comp.cbk ****EVENT COMMENT BY berkey**** : Fri Sep 11 17:28:51 GMT 2015 AR 2412 appears to have some small scale flaring this morning as seen in Halpha. ___end___ Fri Sep 11 17:34:23 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Sep 11 17:35:08 GMT 2015 CoMP is due for a O1 washing. I this morning I also saw some unexpected filament like structures on the lens that weren't there during Wednesday inspection. Typically we see individual pieces of dust or a haze for lots of small dust. This residue trail seems more like drip structures we see when the lens get wet, but the structures were random in random orientations and on both sides of the lens, so maybe some sort of insect was crawling around the O1. I had been trying to hold out on washing until post shutdown since we will probably want to wash both O1's before reinstalling. But now it looks like I should try to schedule a wash down some time in the next week. ___end___ KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Sep 11 17:41:26 GMT 2015 Initial Kcor real time images show a bright feature at the edge of the occulter in Solar north. The feature is slightly less visible in the quicklook gifs. I dont see a corresponding bright feature in the halpha, perhaps this is an instrument artifact. ___end___ Fri Sep 11 19:06:38 GMT 2015 KCOR End Patrol Fri Sep 11 19:06:40 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Calibration script: c:\kcor\mlso-calibration22deg-20150323.ini Fri Sep 11 19:23:53 GMT 2015 KCOR End Calibration Script Fri Sep 11 19:24:10 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Fri Sep 11 19:24:10 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol ****EVENT COMMENT BY berkey**** : Fri Sep 11 19:36:59 GMT 2015 CoMP also seems to have a bright artifact in the same region of the sun as Kcor. So maybe this is solar in origion. ___end___ Fri Sep 11 20:03:13 GMT 2015 KCOR End Patrol Fri Sep 11 20:03:26 GMT 2015 CoMP Paused for clouds GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Sep 11 20:04:11 GMT 2015 Dome closed fast moving fog just came up the hill. ___end___ Fri Sep 11 20:19:08 GMT 2015 CoMP Restarted from pause Fri Sep 11 20:21:08 GMT 2015 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Fri Sep 11 20:56:56 GMT 2015 COMP End Patrol Fri Sep 11 21:05:21 GMT 2015 COMP Start Patrol on cookbook: synoptic-00001.cbk Fri Sep 11 21:06:47 GMT 2015 COMP End Patrol Fri Sep 11 21:08:26 GMT 2015 COMP Start Patrol on cookbook: synoptic-00001.cbk Fri Sep 11 21:09:23 GMT 2015 COMP End Patrol Fri Sep 11 21:09:42 GMT 2015 KCOR End Patrol Fri Sep 11 21:12:54 GMT 2015 COMP Start Patrol on cookbook: synoptic-00001.cbk CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Sep 11 21:13:38 GMT 2015 Swapping CoMP code out with the new menu code that adds two new fits keyworks.
