ENR CTIO Blanco 4-m 2018-12-27

Date: 
Thursday, December 27, 2018
Telescope: 
CTIO Blanco 4-m
Submitter: 
Alfredo Zenteno
Submitter Email: 
azenteno@ctio.noao.edu
Observer Support: 
Manuel Hernandez
Night Assistant: 
Alberto Alvarez
Also Present: 
Alexandra Amon, Antonino Troja, Ting Li
Problems: 

During the afternoon calibration we got an alarm (reason: component not ready due to Hexapod). We restarted the calibration.

Shortly after that, we got an alarm (reason: component not ready due to DECAL). We restarted DECAL and then SISPI, and restarted calibration.

Everything works fine after that.

Comments: 

None.Chicken alarm rang twice and we had to redo the calibration each time. The cause of the alarm was first the hexapod, then decal.
