Handover notes

Please use this page to write up any notes on anything that needs to be passed on to the next observer or should go into the end of experiment message.

Notes should be placed below the horizontal line as a new blog entry.

Continuing problems should be copied to the Current Issues page.

**Template for Handover notes:**

Be sure to add any specific notes about the experiment if required, for example “Special back end configuration for x reason”. Put as much detail as you can - the more the better.

It is ESSENTIAL to put your name after EVERY entry. Copy and paste the template into the new handover notes

  • Getting pseudo-frequency antenna connection problems. Hacky solution: antenna=open@!,10m in field system. If antenna connected, this command is ignored, if the antenna isn't connected, it connects it. Not the best solution but it has been working (Lucas)
  • 23:20 UT, mk5 connection closed. Can't issue commands to mk5 from fs. Halted schedule. No idea what went wrong. EndDIM refused to end despite agreeing with me.
    • pkill DIM
      • (there was also a tstDIMino running??)
    • sudo reboot wouldn't turn of mk5ke, used ipske
  • Dimino now is working (Lucas).
  • Back on schedule 23:40 UT (Lucas).
  • 07:00 UT WARNING: Large difference between formatter and maser delays. maserdelay = 2.660e-7 and clkoff = 1.5531e-1 (!!!). Jamie has suggested to keep an eye on dbbc pps_delay = 61950. They will fix the problem next week (Simin).

  • 20:15UT - Just had a very strange problem where both log monitors thought their respective pcfs machines were locked up (and set off the alarm). However, shortly after, the logs in the log monitors started rapidly scrolling as it caught back up. The ERC windows appear to have remained connected the whole time. (Tiege)
