Enineering: scan of M464 completed successfully. The calibration lamp however could not be controlled from the main LabView application bu only from the Base Power Utility. A spectrophotometric star sequence (star in each chip) was attempted but unfortunately clouds started to appear at mid-sequence with M411. Sequence aborted and observing was handed to the DELVE program.
