Mauna Loa Solar Observatory Observer's Log ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jul 6 17:02:13 GMT 1994 Year: 94 Doy: 187 Observer: koon WEATHER COMMENT: Wed Jul 6 17:02:51 GMT 1994 Clear, wind ~5 mph from the SSE, temp ~ 45 F. Wed Jul 6 17:07:48 GMT 1994: Patrol Start LOW-L COMMENT: Wed Jul 6 17:12:30 GMT 1994 Stopped program, removed L00072, installed L00073, restarted. DPMON COMMENT: Wed Jul 6 17:17:50 GMT 1994 Daystar filter was moving in and out so I recycled the Plessey and kept everything running, this should work as long as the diffuser isn't in the path Wed Jul 6 17:25:04 GMT 1994: Patrol End Wed Jul 6 17:27:07 GMT 1994: Patrol Start DPMON COMMENT: Wed Jul 6 17:27:10 GMT 1994 Well, the diffuser was stuck partially in the path, so I stopped Patrol and Manually moved the diffuser out, then restarted Patrol.

Since this problem has been plaguing us I took some time to figure out a way to gracefully recover from this type of crash where the dPMon Status window shows Camera:Busy. Ideally we need to clear the Busy state so that the program continues and writes to the same tape, but I have found a way to bring the program down then back up without having to reboot the computer like we were doing. Basically the existing Kill command needs to include killing the "Status" and "Command" processes in addition to what it now does, with those inclusions we can type Kill then change tapes then type Run to restart. I'll see what I can do to make it work. Wed Jul 6 19:02:13 GMT 1994: Filemark-Calibration COMMENT: Wed Jul 6 19:54:29 GMT 1994 Extended dome slot. DPMON COMMENT: Wed Jul 6 19:54:42 GMT 1994 Switched to optimum disk image setup: 0.7" LS, mike = 3.85, exp.= 50 ms.

I have several ideas that I will test later to try to come up with a command to change the camera status while running Patrol to allow us to unstick the program without exiting or rebooting and without using extra tapes.
