Problems: 

Bad seeings (2~3arcsec)

Comments: 
  • We had bad seeings (~3arcsec) at the beginning of the night, which tricked psc into claiming the seeing was 1.2arcsec. This made us not believe the results given by psc, for example, the large pointing offset, and thus we could make a pointing correction later after the situation got stable.
  • We had to set the guider exposure time to be 1800ms (instead of 1200ms) for the N419 filter.
  • The seeing was bad (2~3arcsec) during the whole night.
