2010-06-10 ========== Program: CL2 (YSOs, PI: Millan-Gabet et al.) Observers: Stefan Kraus, Rafael Millan-Gabet, John Monnier Telescope: S2-E2-W1-W2 POPs: 5- 2- 1- 5 CHARA/CLIMB Baseline: S2(pop5)-E2(pop2)-W1(pop1) (S2 on beam 1, E2 on beam 2, W1 on beam 3, E2 reference) LT 21:46 = UT 04:46 = LST 14:08 LT 21:55 - hd126035 (Lambda Vir calibrator) found fringes at 2.0719 (E2W1=2&3), -0.919 (S2E2=1&2) LT 22:50 - hd156365 (MWC275 calibrator) first fringe search not successful recording technical data without fringes, SYNC 500 Hz (=NON-DEST) recording technical data without fringes, NORM 500 Hz (=DEST) many time lost due to W1 cart stuck. LT 23:30 VME crashed, have to reboot to search for fringes have to home carts searching manually for fringe test shows that the CLIMB buttons do not apply the offsets to the delay-line to check this, turn off "OL" offset buttom (keeping "FT" and "MAN" pressed) then click the bottons and the delay-line offset should change after restart of climb, it works again -> Problem identified: -> Solution: If VME crashes, CLIMB-server has to be restarted. LT 01:?? - hd190327 (V1295Aql calibrator) LT 02:15 - have to close dome to due high humidity (>85%) LT 03:00 - taking one file in H-band to estimate background (technical test) saving data in H-band (*_001.fits) without fringes and dome closed LT 04:00 - opening again (humidity 76%). LT 04:00 - hd207920 (Omi Aqr calibrator) LT 04:30 carts are vibrating, so we would have to restart VCM which would also interrupt FLUOR operation LT 04:35 - since not enough time is left to make a new pointing, we are closing down
