Info on backups
 09/10/2014   ULTRASPEC's non-data disks are backed up each day. The system disk of the data reduction PC is rsynced to the clone disk at 04:00 UT daily. The system disk of the rack PC is rsynced to the clone disk at 02:00 UT daily. If you need to recover a file, please contact Paul Kerry. (PK)

Readout noise 02/10/2014The new NARIT earth seems to have improved the readout noise, which is now typically around 4 counts (3.2e-) with the telescope tracking, but fluctuates between ~3 counts (2.4 e-) and ~6 counts (4.8e-). (VSD)
Software update: end_of_night tasks 02/10/2014
end_of_night_tasks script updated to find the log files recorded by both the python and the java usdrivers. (VSD)
Software update: start_uspec
 02/10/2014start_uspec script updated to make Tom's new python usdriver the default GUI. Java GUI can be accessed with the command start_uspec old. Script also now checks if camera server, filesave server and usdriver are already running and, if so, does not attempt to start them. (VSD)
Software update: slogger 02/10/2014slogger updated to remove redundant columns (e.g. grating, slit width, slit PA) and add useful new columns (RA, Dec, focus, PA - if available). Should now work with the output from either the java or python versions of usdriver. (VSD)

Software update: SDSU DSP
 01/10/2014SDSU CCD controller DSP software upgraded from v130417 to v140331. This fully implements the double-clear (to fix the saturating-in-clear-mode problem) and SDSU power off function, and correctly sets the DSP version number in the file headers. (VSD)
Software update: ultracam pipeline 30/10/2014ULTRACAM data reduction pipeline software upgraded from v9.12 to v9.13. This version handles the new DSP version number correctly, removes some old and irrelevant warnings from rtplot, and correctly implements GPS timestamping for clear mode, which has changed due to the double clear. (VSD)
DRPC CPU heatsink/fan reseated 29/09/2014The heatsink and fan on the CPU of the ULTRASPEC data reduction PC in the control room has been reseated, with new thermal compound applied. The PC still seems to be running warm, but we suspect this is ok. (VSD)
New filter available 29/09/2014Replacement CIII/NIII+HeII filter (#31 in the filter database) put in ULTRASPEC filter box in the dome. The original (#23) was cracked. (VSD)
Hardware change: filter wheel 29/09/2014The 5 SDSS+KG5 filters have been swapped from their original wheel to the spare wheel (that contained some test apertures installed by Christophe), as this spare wheel seems to run more smoothly in the wheel housing. The o-ring was also replaced around the original wheel. A washer has also been added to the bolt on the filter wheel door so that the door can now be fully tightened without worrying about compressing the wheel too much and causing it to fail. The grub screws securing the filter wheel housing to ULTRASPEC have also been moved so that they can now be fully tightened without compressing the gap in the filter wheel housing, thereby causing the wheel to grind. All of the changes, in conjunction with the firmware change detailed below, have hopefully made the filter wheel reliable now. (VSD)
Firmware update: filter wheel 29/09/2014Filter wheel controller firmware updated from v3.01 to v3.02. This fixes the bug where an attempt to move from position #3 to position #6 results in an actual move to position #1. A complete, spare filter wheel has also been placed in the ULTRASPEC crates on the ground floor - this has v3.02 pre-installed. (VSD)

Modified ls332.py
 29/03/2014   Modified the Lakeshore temperature monitoring script to make it more robust against serial port clashes with other processes, e.g. usdriver.py (TRM)
Fixed problem with saturation in clear mode
 29/03/2014finally managed to fix the problem with weird saturation behaviour in clear mode, with help from David Atkinson (UKATC). We now clear the chip twice instead of once. This only takes ~10ms longer per frame, but isn't a problem as clear mode is only ever used for calibrations and acquisition. CCD tested extensively to see if any knock-on negative consequences of this change (e.g. dark current, noise, bias, etc) - no problems found (VSD)
Modified start_uspec
 29/03/2014added "tom" option to run Tom's new python usdriver instead of the default java version. To run it, simply type: "start_uspec tom" (VSD)
Recalibrated slide
 28/03/2014modified slide.c to correct for ~10 pixel position error. Also aligned and focused the blade. Good to ~1 pixel now in focus, position and tilt (VSD)
