Was the system restarted in the afternoon? Anyway, now it seems to be OK, the pc guider was very slow so I restarted it. Display and EXPMETER were down.
File 1120: counts affected for poor guiding (on a dim star): the error is evident in RA! Same sort of poor guiding on GAI2105-3515_gapZ. Solution is to help the auto with the manual guiding!
Instead of lines 23, 24 and 25 I did 24, 23 and 25. I guess that was the right thing to do.
Shortened int time for G2k000668 to 720 seconds: room for eta Car. Ended with Sun at -7.5 degress but etaCar is very brigh and EXPMETER "was OK".
No time left for: HIP31089, T0382437043.
