Problems:
Images presented deformations since image 280 at 1:48 UTC / 22:48 CT. Tried to improve the imaging by restarting SISPI. We took 3 images of 30 sec and the images looked better but not perfect (the trim value was about 700), then the trim value lowered to 670 degrading again the images. Because of that the z trim value was changed manually to 750 and the imaging was greatly improved. After several images the trim value remained constant at 750. For some reason it seems that the trim value mostly did not changed, and when it did, it did it for worse
