23:10: we reach 45deg elevation

• the aircraft system shuts down lasers but does not tell the loop to open, AdSec fails...

SDSS J134332.85+415503

23:20: preset finished, aligning lasers. We run the beam shaping: corrector at 300, focus at -125k (elevation 72deg).

• when closing the loop through the preset if the operator is too fast in clicking on "confirm LGS acquisition" the Pyramid could still have old noisy slopes that can be feeded in the TS?!

1:00: SW issues, LAN controller died... Also AOS dies at 7:56 UT.

NGC6384

1:15: general SW restart and go to new target

1:48: we give up, we're facing into the wind so no chance to keep the LGS in the FoV.

SDSS J1958

After the general restart our BCU does not start properly. It is not sending slopes. We reset it...

Preset sent as MAG12, PYR BIN2, 200Hz. We decide to change binning and to go to BIN4, 500Hz.

• Change all TT configurations to use only BIN4
