Performance remained good so we now point the default guider version at the new code. If needed the old guider code can be accessed by running the sgs-old.exe short cut on the desktop. It should just run seamlessly in the background and require no special observer intervention after statup and the inital alignments. However if we ever get to a situation with major occulter spill on kcor the observer should manually adjust zeropoints to fix it. ___end___ Fri Feb 04 00:18:22 GMT 2022 UCoMP Restarted from pause GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Feb 04 00:21:31 GMT 2022 Looks like it wont clear again today. ___end___ ONSITE STAFF: berkey
