Observer Support:

Night Assistant: 
Alberto Alvarez
Also Present: 
Jennifer Marshall, Erika Cook, Marcus Sauseda
Problems: 

DECalS software was not working. Maybe some network problem? More investigation is needed.

 

We had several oclusions alarms, similar to the ones I had on August 4th. In all cases, the exposure started while the dome was still moving. As it was the case in Aug 4th, the slews between fields for the observing program were small. The times of the oclusion alarms were: 06:13, 06:24, 06:32, 07:08, 07:25. Affected images were re-queued.

Comments: 

Engineering night.  ToO program 2017B-0110 was completed with no problem.
