---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===---

Viktor Malanushenko
Audrey Simmons
Kaike Pan (afternoon)

---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===---

	Science!
---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===---

We did not open tonight because of falling snow (additional 1" or so) and high humidity.

We completed dithered flats manually. There were a few times when boss 
moveColl was issued and the motor positions moved the correct amount, but 
error messages appeared in the log saying that the motor positions failed. 
These messages appeared immediately after the command was issued (we were 
moving the collimators by 62 ticks at a time).

A flat field bulb burned out during the test. We replaced it.
---=== OBSERVING LOG ===---

Afternoon:
---------

All actors and systems were checked and conformed working
properly.

High humidity and snowing prevents from ventilation.

Shelved snow from walks.

Night:
-----

We could not open due to snow, clouds, and high humidity.

***

We began gathering dithered flats.

SOLUTION:

log> sop restart
   and against

-->> SYMPTOM: the 'mcp' does not worked or worked strangely=non-standart

SOLUTION:

log> mcp info

08:35Z - FF bulb burned out (at 3-6:00 position). Had to replace it. 

09:20Z - Finished dithered flats.
