Delaying opening until we get above the thick clouds. ___end___ KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Jun 17 16:56:12 GMT 2016 Added a check to make sure the current days socketcam log exists before trying to copy it to mlsoserver. This should get rid of the error message we see in the morning after a day in which no kcor data was taken. Testing shows that it still copys logs if they do exist and does not pop up an error message if they dont. ___end___ WEATHER COMMENT: berkey: Fri Jun 17 18:19:20 GMT 2016 Temp: 55.1f, Humidity: 6%, Pressure: 28.671in, Wind: 13mph from 152degs, Skies: overcast over more of the sky ___end___ Fri Jun 17 19:23:06 GMT 2016 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Fri Jun 17 19:37:27 GMT 2016 KCOR End Patrol KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Jun 17 19:39:15 GMT 2016 Looks like the kcor field lens work on Wednesday did somethign funky/bad to the data in the S ___end___ CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Jun 17 21:01:06 GMT 2016 Spring that was installed wednesday has now been removed. Spring force+gravity on the stage is to much for the motor to overcome. ___end___ KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Jun 17 21:11:27 GMT 2016 Re-cleaned lens waiting on results. ___end___ KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Jun 17 21:12:27 GMT 2016 Lens reinstalled ~20:50 ___end___ Fri Jun 17 22:34:51 GMT 2016 KCOR Start Synoptic Patrol Fri Jun 17 22:37:18 GMT 2016 SGS Alignment complete Fri Jun 17 22:39:07 GMT 2016 COMP Start Patrol on cookbook: synoptic-00006.cbk Fri Jun 17 22:54:24 GMT 2016 KCOR End Patrol Fri Jun 17 22:54:24 GMT 2016 CoMP Paused for clouds CoMP COMMENT BY berkey: Sat Jun 18 00:44:48 GMT 2016 Tried a few more springs on the occulter stage in the east. I was unable to find one in our collection that was weak enough to allow smooth motion of the motor. :( ___end___ Sat Jun 18 00:55:27 GMT 2016 CoMP Restarted from pause Sat Jun 18 00:55:27 GMT 2016 COMP End Patrol KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Sat Jun 18 00:58:32 GMT 2016 I think the cleaning of the field lens today solved the optical issues we saw this morning the quick look images are much much much better. However in the few shots I got between cirrus clouds we didnt get any data that made it though the normalized pipeline so I am a little worried there may still be something wrong. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Sat Jun 18 00:58:49 GMT 2016 I forgot to run shabar today. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Sat Jun 18 00:58:59 GMT 2016 Cirrus looks unlikely to break. ___end___
