Looks like both dome sensors when dark at the same time but the dome didnt move. On manual testing covering either sensor the dome to move. And multiple attempts where made to cover both at once but in ever occurrence the dome still moved. More dome troubleshooting to follow tomorrow with more favorable access to the dome sensors. As a short term fix the dome was manaully rotated to the west and we should be ok for the rest of the day. The dome never obstructed the instruments or guider. ___end___ Mon Apr 25 23:09:24 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelength_coronal.cbk line 0 Mon Apr 25 23:37:03 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelength_coronal.cbk line 0 Tue Apr 26 00:04:28 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelength_coronal_flat.cbk line 0 Tue Apr 26 00:19:37 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook waves_1074_1hour.cbk line 0 Tue Apr 26 01:28:23 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook no-occulter-flat.cbk line 0 Tue Apr 26 01:34:59 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelength_coronal.cbk line 0 Tue Apr 26 02:03:10 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelength_coronal_flat.cbk line 0 Tue Apr 26 02:18:30 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelength_coronal.cbk line 0 Tue Apr 26 02:46:34 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelength_coronal.cbk line 0 Tue Apr 26 03:14:01 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelength_coronal.cbk line 0 Tue Apr 26 03:34:48 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelength_coronal.cbk line 14 Tue Apr 26 03:42:35 GMT 2022 Running UCOMP Cookbook all_wavelength_coronal_flat.cbk line 0 UCoMP COMMENT BY mcotter: Tue Apr 26 03:49:21 GMT 2022 PM Washed UCoMP O1. Removed Ucomp 01#1 replaced it with Ucomp 01#2. The 01#1 lens showed quite a bit of contamination and foreign particles on the surfaces under inspection. The 01#1 lens was thoroughly rinsed with deionized water, both sides, then thoroughly cleaned with soap and water several times over the entire lens surface. Even after the repeated washings a speckling pattern of contamination could be seen on both sides of the lens. The lens was then cleaned thoroughly, both sides, with Acetone followed closely with deionized water to rinse. This was followed by thoroughly cleaning the lens, both sides, with Alcohol, followed closely with a deionized water rinse. The speckled pattern was observed to have diminished considerably by doing this procedure. The whole process was repeated; soap and water, Acetone and water, Alcohol and water and afterwards it was observed that most of the speckled foreign substance was removed. Spot cleaning with soap and water followed closely with a deionized water rise was done to remove a few areas where water residue remained. Afterwards the lens was taken outside and inspected in full sunlight and the lens was considerably improved from the initial condition. It was determined to be too late to put the 01#1 back into the instrument today. Tomorrow morning I will remove the 01#2 lens and reinstall the 01#1. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY mcotter: Tue Apr 26 03:49:59 GMT 2022 Emptied trash containers in clean room and control room. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY mcotter: Tue Apr 26 03:59:08 GMT 2022 Excellent day for observing!
