Summary for Torun for Session 2011-2

Experiment End date Friend Result Problem Text
EC0322011-06-15Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresNoneBBC6 was unlocked during this experiment. No other known problems.
EC0332011-06-13Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresLATEObservations started about 1 hour late due to sheer late arrival of operator (because of scheduled service time there weren't any preceding obserwations). BBC6 was unlocked throughout this experiment.
EG049B2011-06-03Kaz BorkowskiSuccessNoneAs in EG051F, still some instabilities but more sparsely.
EG051E2011-06-02Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresRECE RECO HIGHOperator inserted a diskpack in Bank A after it was recorded in Bank B and, no wonder, could not start recording. Recording only started (in Bank B) from 15:20 UTC. However not much was lost since RCP is almost dead and in LCP FS indicates high Tsys (this poor receiver's condition improves considerably before this PI's next experiment).
EG051F2011-06-03Kaz BorkowskiSuccessNoneReceivers still show some instabilities but only occasionally.
EM084A2011-06-16Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresNoneBBC6 was unlocked during this experiment. No other known problems.
EM084B2011-06-16Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresNoneBBC6 was unlocked during this experiment. Some 20 minutes from 16:22 UTC are lost because of loss of connection with one of control computers (FS had to be restarted).
EP068C2011-06-01K. BorkowskiMinor failuresWIND HIGHBreak in observations between 13:39 and 16:29 due to thunderstorm. One of claps of thunder was associated with a short loss of power which resulted in BBC disconnection. BBC04 could not be forced to the 'locked' state. With high Tsys probably whole this observation will be of little use for the PI.
EP068D2011-06-12Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresNoneBBC6 was unlocked during the exzperiment. No other known problems.
ER026B2011-05-31Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresNoneAbout 10 minutes lost due to hang-up of FS at about 6:26 UTC. No other known proplems.
ES066A2011-05-28K. BoerkowskiSuccessNoneNo known problems.
ES066B2011-05-29K. BorkowskiSuccessNoneNo known problems.
ES066C2011-05-30Kaz BorkowskiSuccessNoneNo known problems.
ES0672011-05-30K. BorkowskiSuccessNoneNo known problems.
EV018D2011-06-02Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresRECE HIGHReceivers continue to be very unstable. RCP channels are practically unusable. Tsys in LCP was high in the beginning but seems to have returned to its normal temperature sometime after midnight.
EY015A2011-06-10K. BorkowskiMinor failuresRECOBBC6 mulfunctioning (unlocked). Last hour of observations (from scan at 7:21:20) did not get recorded (for unknown reason).
EY015A2011-06-10Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresRECOCorrection: An error in recording occured at a later moment, at scan 156 beginning at 8:30:50. Then Mark5A says (in the log file): "201116108:03:13 Mark5A errors() ERROR:  XLR error 168 Drive missing/failing on Bus 4 Master" and then: "201116108:03:16 MEDIASTATUS_FAULTED, NOT WriteProtected, Error 41 0"
EZ020D2011-05-27Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresNoneRecording off source between 21:53 and 22:08 UTC because of problems with pumps of cryo system earlier this day (compressor unexpectantly stopped working).
F11L12011-06-09Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresNoneBBC 6 continues to malfunction (no lock). No other known issues.
GG0742011-06-09Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresNoneBBC6 was unlocked throughout this experiment (like in preceding experiments).
GV020F2011-06-11Kaz BorkowskiSuccessRECOBBC6 was unlocked during the exzperiment. After disk-pack change (at 8:20 UT), the new pack (NRA0-103) after about 20 minutes begun to pose problems and was changed to HART-037 (so that about 20 minutes since 8:40) were lost). Thus to correlate this experiment JIVE will have three Tr recorded packs to deal with.
N11C22011-05-31Kaz BorkowskiFailureRECEA failure in the cryogenic system shortly befor the start of this experiment caused saturation of receivers so that no useful signal could be obtained.
N11L22011-06-07K. BorkowskiMinor failuresWINDThe first manually extracted ftp-file appeared to have wrong headers (unknown reason). A thunderstorm caused powerdown at 13:16 UTC (so we missed second ftp-scan). Observations resumed at 13:55 (fringes detected in the file from third ftp-scan, except for one BBC channel).
N11L32011-06-09Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresNoneBBC6 mulfunctioning (although locked, but at very low signal level and extreme gain). No other known problems.
N11M22011-05-26Kaz BorkowskiMinor failuresRECOMk5 did not want to record data despite of number of reboots (and change of diskpack at the end). Finally, we downgraded the recently updated SS firmware and this helped. Recording started from scan No 27 only. With the older firmware we had to manually extract the ftp-files which resulted in delays in their delivery.
