Problems:
The DHS system crashed twice. The first error occurred during the first acquisition. To resolve this we had to stop and retsart the NOCS. The 2nd DHS failure occurred during a calibration lamp. We were able to save the file by updating the Shared Memory Cache staus in the DHS vncviewer.

Good engineering night with COSMOS and COSMOS training with J. Seron. Took spectrophotometric standards using the older blue and red grisms in addition to the new high-res red grism, high-res visible grism, and low-res wide grism. The data look good with prelimenary analysis. Obtained standard star data for the following configurations:
b2k center slit 2x300; 2x600
r2k center slit 2x300; 2x600
v4k center slit 2x300; 2x600
hr4k center slit 2x300; 2x600
hr4k red slit 2x300; 2x600
v4k red slit 2x300; 2x600
l2k red slit 2x300; 2x600
