SHWFS
After recharging the battery, the camera now connects fine and can be remotely controlled by the Mac mini. Screensharing on the Mac mini still works. I think we're basically ready to take this on-sky again.
Anemometer
Power supply arrived. The new connections are more secure and the labjack is immobilized in a box. Also, Wouter will try to put this into the CSC in January. But for now we are taking data with the Mac mini.
Example 1 minute of anemometer test data (where I fanned it in the middle). Data is in anemometer_test.db
Now I've started a scan that should last for the duration of the observing run (of course, we can stop and move the anemometer if we want - right now the anemometer is on the table at the edge of the dome, as it was in May). It's called anemometer_2022_DecA.db. Here's an initial look:
Note - the dome is closed right now.
Differential temperature sensor
Also started a run that should last until Friday afternoon, and thus cover the whole observing period. (I will of course check periodically to make sure it's still saving the data.)
Dec. 6
Got a DHCP reservation for the new Mac that will run the DIMSUM:
auxtel-macmini03.cp.lsst.org
139.229.164.205
It can now connect to the RubinObs-LHN wifi and it's possible to ssh into the computer.
Also installed globus endpoints on the meerkat and the anemometer Mac mini. Just need to tar the data and then it can be transferred to the RC storage.
Details of the installation of DIMSUM are detailed in Ali's logbook.
