Problems: 

Brief problem with DECAL at start of night:  sispi interlock broken "Failed to prepare the following componenets for next exposure: DECAL". Solved by restarting DECAL, resetting SISPI. 7mins lost.

The "wait=autocorrect" command in the pointing script does not seem to work. We utilise this in the 2nd half of the night, but it makes no noticable difference.
