Smooth night!
I would like to remind you about the tracking issue, there is a drift to the west.
In addition, I’ve noticed when not guiding where the fiber is (x=286,y=242) guiding seems to be deficient, I saw the drift to the west.
Computer room air conditioning went off, so I restarted it. The temperature still hasn’t reached the set value, could someone please check during the day?.

Nice run back at the 1.5m telescope, I’m grateful for my colleagues on working on the issues specially electronics and mechanics.
Program completed successfully.
DIMM didn’t work from 0:15 to 1:40 UT. I used RINGSS for the first quarter of the night. And DIMM for the rest of the night.
Target RKS1555-0209, hard to see which star is the target, please clarify, I followed SIMBAD and I chose the one to the North (HD 142661B).
