Problems:
Last night I reported some problems with the calibration lamps at the end of the night, tonight it was not possible to take any calibration lamp. When I tried to take a lamp I could see in the PI_LAMPS.vi that it turns on, but I could not see any signal in the exposure meter, neither in the spectra. Checking the calibrations at the end of the last night and this afternoon I could see several files without structure, please check them. Leonardo Paredes and I were connected by video call for a couple of hours, even we tried to solve this problem it was not possible, it is necessary a deeper revision ASAP. In order to continue with the observations Leonardo added targets with not calibrations needed.
