I suspect this is showing the O1 tilting w.r.t. to the occulter/aft-end. Not sure if/how this is helpful to understanding the performance of the spar or coronagraphs. ___end___ Thu Feb 10 23:06:51 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook dark_200_1sums_80ms.cbk line 0 Thu Feb 10 23:11:55 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook no-occulter-flat.cbk line 0 Thu Feb 10 23:18:26 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelenght_coronal_flat.cbk line 0 Thu Feb 10 23:51:12 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelenght_coronal.cbk line 0 ****EVENT COMMENT BY berkey**** : Fri Feb 11 00:45:05 GMT 2022 Prominence eruption seen launching in the diff images near PA300 at UT22. ___end___ Fri Feb 11 01:17:26 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelenght_coronal.cbk line 32 Fri Feb 11 01:47:15 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelenght_coronal.cbk line 0 KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Fri Feb 11 02:48:39 GMT 2022 Noticed the pointing on kcor ins't performing as well we would like as the aerosols increase.. Trying to change the threshold of which pixels we are using for the alignment. Was hard coded to 10,000counts. Now the threshold is available on the front panel and set to 20,000. By eye this appears to give a better results in the high aerosol regiem we have this afternoon. For futher testing/need changes the threshold control is found just below the realtime image display. ___end___ ONSITE STAFF: berkey
