Observing Log

Test observations with WHSF and MAC

Test observations with WHSF and MAC†

↑

Tasks†

Reduce baseline instability of DASH345.

↑

Preparations†

Basic checks
- Make sure that DASH3 and BAND8 are linked to the following files
```
[aste17@aste-ms1 ~]$ ssh astecntl@aste-1c "ls -l /cosmos3/aste/etc/kisag/{DASH3,BAND8}"
lrwxrwxrwx 1 astecntl astctl 12 May 31 07:58 /cosmos3/aste/etc/kisag/BAND8 -> BAND8.170531
lrwxrwxrwx 1 astecntl astctl 12 May 31 07:33 /cosmos3/aste/etc/kisag/DASH3 -> DASH3.170531
```
  - If not, contact with CSV lead.
- Set all subref parameters (dx,dy,dz,dtx,dty,dtz) zeros in the subref offset GUI.
- Confirm that Aspirin is working in the "WIND ON" mode. If not, start it following the instructions in How to restart Aspirin.
