Night Assistant:

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.

Comments: 

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
