This looks to be related to how we were polling the cameras. Changed the polling interval to be a little slower and current testing shows things looking a lot better. Testing will continue a bit longer to see if anything pops up over time. ___end___ Wed Oct 13 21:35:43 GMT 2021 Running UCOMP Cookbook dark_200_1sums_80ms.cbk line 0 Wed Oct 13 21:40:42 GMT 2021 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelenght_coronal_flat.cbk line 0 Wed Oct 13 22:06:21 GMT 2021 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelenght_coronal.cbk line 0 Wed Oct 13 23:14:06 GMT 2021 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelenght_coronal.cbk line 0 Thu Oct 14 00:21:30 GMT 2021 Running UCOMP Cookbook dark_80ms_2beam_16sums_BOTH.cbk line 0 Thu Oct 14 00:22:47 GMT 2021 Running UCOMP Cookbook 1074_Pol_Calibrate.cbk line 0 Thu Oct 14 00:27:24 GMT 2021 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelenght_coronal_flat.cbk line 0 Thu Oct 14 00:52:32 GMT 2021 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelenght_coronal.cbk line 0 UCoMP COMMENT BY mcotter: Thu Oct 14 01:25:30 GMT 2021 Realigned polarizer stage linear slide. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY mcotter: Thu Oct 14 01:30:17 GMT 2021 Removed Yaw Cam from spar. Built another mounting fixture for the camera and occulter, as the existing one was intended for a temporary period of time only and lacked the mechanical integrity to stand up to daily use and spar movements. The Yaw Cam has been reinstalled on the spar, but I was unable to get the video software to transmit an image. When Ben and I are in tomorrow we can get the software working and make the physical adjustments that are going to be necessary for proper alignment. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY mcotter: Thu Oct 14 01:41:10 GMT 2021 Overcast skies all day. No data today. ___end___ ONSITE STAFF: mcotter
