Missing data points in CCD QA plots #426

Closed kadglass closed 2 weeks ago

kadglass commented 3 months ago

Some of the CCDs are missing their data points on the CCD QA plots (e.g., r1-CD, r4-AB,...). Segev suggested this might be due to missing calibration darks that are raising errors in qproc.

yes, the controls for these ccds were tweaked yesterday and we need new darks for them. Klaus

Looking further: this is more serious than I thought as several amps (e.g., r1c and r1d) have been missing readnoise, bias, and cosmic rates since the start of April. If this was raised in the nightlog, I missed it before now. Next steps:

Luke pointed out that some of the CCDs are now in 2-amp mode, which could be these "missing" data points. The conversion from 4- to 2-amp mode started in April, so the timing appears to coincide with the above comment. Perhaps all that's needed, then, is an update to Nightwatch to switch the ones in 2-amp mode to only have AB options (or something similar).

Of course. Duh!

Rather than change the plots, I'll probably just add a note to the page so that observers (and I) don't get tripped up on this in the future.
