Ghosts (no internal focal plane mask for this run only)
Signs of condensation (no getter for this run only)
(new issue) There are bad columns in the sensor which I expected to freeze out but have not. I will continue to optimize.
There are three readout speeds currently possible. Read times are about 10, 30, and 50 seconds. I plan to set the default to the middle (30sec) speed but want to see how it looks on the mountain.
There is a bad dewtemp temperature sensor (-999 reading for this run only). So assume a >24 hour hold-time and cool once per day.
The first image after power-on/reset may take an extra minute or so for controller sync.
The fill LN2 wand is not finished so it should just be pushed in but not threaded to fill. We will find a way to support a rotating “nut” before the next run.
If you get a chance to take a “pretty picture” with the new system the ITL staff would appreciate seeing it😊
