P72-017: PRE-Supernova Targeted Observations (PRESTO) during the Rubin Era
PI: Maximilian Stritzinger
ALFOSC SoftToO
SoftToO triggers will be requested with ALFOSC in Nordic Service or
technical time.
The OB generator will be used to request all observations.
The OBs will automatically appear in the OB queue and OB generated
scripts will be automatically placed in the directory ~/scripts/72-017/.
For the observer:
Go to the directory
cd ~/scripts/72-017
List the available scripts
ls -lrt
and execute the OB generated scripts requested.
Remember to fill the
SoftToO tracking log of this program.

Observed this because it was the only target downwind, though it was observed outside LST limits and partly into the lower hatch. I will mark this as failed, but let us know if this should be changed to completed. |

Observed during high clouds, varying seeing and wind conditions. There was an error after the HeNe arc, so I had to run the script again and continue from where the error occurred. |

Observed during thin clouds and seeing <1".When doing calibration frames, got an error in XPA communication to ALFOSC and had to ctrl+c the script and restart the obssys. Ran the script again (reading out the science frame) just to do the missing calibration frames. |
