- 01:05 UT TCS display wrong coordinates after completing movement!
- 01:25 and 01:50 UT OPTGUI START button fails to start exposures, reboot does not helps so, rebooted ctioe1. That worked but, detectors lab tablet shows IODCTEMP in red and LabView 'Monitoring Points' shows IODC and INST SETP and TEMP in red, though the system is already acquiring data.
- So, lost chance to observe: T0063898957, T0306263608 and V960 Tau!
- ~ 03:20 UT while on file 1139, telescope jumps ~ 10" in Declination (south.)
- Some NOS lines fail to START (e.g., 2 and 19) and OPTGUI freezes if we try a ThAr Fiber lamp from the GUI. Finally at 04:45 UT OPTGUI is not responding ("attempting communication to DHE...") Rebooted DHE, recovered system.
- ~ 6 UT Air conditioning unit, E1 status: room hot. Did an APH, set to 18C.
- 07:35 UT NOS lost connection to database. After minutes recovered.
- 08:05 UT OPTGUI fails to start a new exposure, rebooted OPTGUI, again!
- No time for G2K001084.
- Completed last integration with the Sun at -10.5 degrees of altitude.
