Comments: 

- DIMM off at 02:39 UT (partially cloudy.) Then intermittently back.
- 03:55 UT OPTGUI button START fails to start integration on TOI 618.0, rebooted OPTGUI once, OK.
- Object 2MASSJ08040005-4954589 looks fainter than a 9.5Mag.  Plus, is cloudy!
- CTI3MAC mouse tracking ball does not move UP, just L, R and DOWN.
- 05:12 UT Fails to START exposure on TOI-1861, rebooted OPTGUI. In meantime OPTGUI shows a msg in RED under Last Async/Error and after the reboot, the OPTGUI was still UNABLE to get a lamp test so, Leo did the quick "press no_hold" of the DHE button and then the system was able to pick the lamp.
- 06:15 UT: cloudy, STOP and wait at zenith, with shutter and mirror cover closed. 
- 0843 UT ails to START on T0142378043. Rebooted OPTGUI, OK. But, line #43, fails to start a ThAr lamp, also fails from OPTGUI. Rebooted again and got the lamp, forget the night.
