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

  • 1730UT experiment started OK (JS)
  • 1730UT iread power levels are a bit low 28000 and 38000 of 48000 | changing attentuation did nothing to help (JS)
  • 0630UT problems with cryo pressure, temps rising, called Jamie and he has sorted it. (Tiege)
  • 0920UT Two scans (0910 and 0919 i think) where “previous source in this schedule not reached before new source was commanded”, seemed to imporve after this, keeping an eye on it.

  • 1057UT He supply pressure dropped rapidly, now at 273psi although somewhat steady. Warren consulted will leave it for now. If it goes below 270psi, ring him back (Liz).

  • Ran fivept several times, the offsets are looking a bit dodgy (xoffset 157.5670 65.7470 0.00000 0.04678 0.09617 0.01788 0 1 0521m365) - this is an improvement from the -0.3 offsets that were happening earlier (Bryn)
  • Best fivept I could get is xoffset 178.4848 58.5974 0.03901 0.01897 0.01672 0.01623 1 0 pictora after switching source. (Bryn)

  • 1700UT Experiment started OK (JS)
  • 1345UT Massive spike in delay difference (66064883248634.000 us). Halting schedule to reset DBBC (Bryn)
  • 1352UT Recording Resumed, missed scans 304-1342b through 304-1347c (Bryn)
  • 1530UT alarms going off for illegal state error and unable to read systemclock1. antenna=open antenna=operate fixed the issue. (Bryn)
  • 1600UT More alarms, probably caused by the storm. Really slow connection to telescope. Resetting antenna drives, as the antenna is stuck.
