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.

Format for entering a comment It is important to stick to this formula - there is a good reason we need this information, so please include it!
Time stamp in UT * Comment * (Your Name)
For Example:
20:00UT: Wind stows, Missed scans 012-3456 to 012-3457 (Jim)
20:50UT: Mark5 lost connection, had to restart Mark5 and reconfigure DBBC, called Jamie on call to fix, missed scans 012-3456 to 012-4567 (Jim)
Again - as much detail as you can. It is important to remember that these notes will be sent to the correlator, so please make sure they make sense to others.

- The connection to the mk5 seems to be off and it seems unresponsive in general. The fmset does not return any of the three clock times; it just shows an error message. The autocorrelations are also off the charts, a problem which seemed to have arisen in the earlier experiment itself. Warren said that he would coordinate with the person at Ke in the morning and try sorting it out (Prad).

- 1800 UT: Experiment started OK (Jay).
- The clkoff and maserdelay commands not always return a value. Informed to Warren who's having a look at it (Prad).
- 0607 UT: clkoff, maserdelay fixed. Fixed by typing the commands in hb12 fs and the commands in newsmerd became responsive again. (Atifur)
- 1200 UT: Connection at AuScope room lost, resume observation at Mt Pleasant. Log file to be monitored is unable to be created.
- 1351 UT: monit3 not returning value, Tsys in SysMon is referred instead. (Lim)
