1730UT Experiment started okay (JS)
1945UT SystemClock1 errors. Attempting to diagnose (JS)
1950UT Looks like the generator has died at hb, Brett is going out to refuel (JS)
- Affected scans: 286-1941 to 286-2307a. ie first good scan was 286-2311
2311UT Experiment restarted (Liz)

2016.287.03:28:26 Scan name = 287-0027 2016.287.03:28:26 ALARM: error m5 -900 already off

11:40 UT Autocorrelations look a bit askew in sub-bands 7 and 9. I'll monitor them over the next few scans and configure the dbbc if they persist (Lucas)

Katherine 12m:

Disk VSN: HOB+0015, start 1533.39 GB

1730UT Experiment started okay (JS)
2117UT Katherine switched back to bank A (HOB+0015) since bank B was at capacity.

HOB+0015 will need to be shipped off for the r1761. So it's best to start recording to a third module as soon as we can, and then retrieve the data for this experiment from HOB+0015 later before shipping. Speak to the on-site person when they're in to switch out a module

0030UT Katherine switched back to bank B (XAO-1013) for bank A (HOB+0015) to be able to be shipped etc for r1761. (Liz)
- Missed scans 287-0027 and 287-0029 (Liz)
0328UT alarm sounded ALARM: error m5 -900 already off, WARNING: error m5 -906 mark5 return code 6: inconsistent or conflicting request, ALARM: error m5 -900 no scans, and then fixed itself. On closer inspection, log monitor seems to be printing information about scans from the last 2 hours in quick succession over 0321-0331UT. All outputs before and after this bracket match the schedule file. Seems to be fine now, and eremote was unaffected so appears to be a strange log monitor artefact rather than anything wrong with the experiment. Will monitor for now. (Liz)
0509UT Happened again. Alarm at 0457UT and 0503UT. Spoke to Jamie. Log file was reading from a tmp file which he thinks was probably the cause. Made new log file on /vlbobs/~ seems to be something was26 GB

2016.287.06:05:10 Scan name = 287-0605b interfering with the tmp file and log monitor was having to rewrite experiment history (Liz).

11:40 UT Autocorrelations look a bit askew in sub-bands 1, 3 and 8. I'll monitor them over the next few scans and configure the dbbc if they persist (Lucas)

1720UT No response from MK5 needs to be rebooted, can't get trhough to yg telephone!! (JS)
1740UT reset mk5 via ip switch (JS)

- missed scans: 286-1730 to 286-1745
2345UT For some time yg has had formatter to fs time difference 0.5s or greater as mk5=dot? response nearly 1 sec out. According to Jamie fix with fmset after this experiment end. (Liz)
