Observer Support: 
Hernan Tirado
Night Assistant: 
Alberto Alvarez
Also Present: 
Alistair Walker, Kathy Vivas (remote)
Problems: 

At 02:54 we obtained the error: "Component(s) not ready for the next exposure: DECAL". We reset SISPI but did not work and Alberto went to the MZ floor to restat DECAL machine. After that, we pressed reset again in the Observer Console, the Interlock appeared green and then we go without any trouble. It took less than 5 minutes to do this. At 02:59 we were observing again. 

Comments: 

SISPI was quite slow today. We have to kill and refresh the page from time to time.

I realized in the telemetry viewer that there was a peak at 04:30 in the LN2 Heater Power, Cryocoolers, Level, and LN2 diff pressure.
