Definition of equipment and task must be done with Ricardo Parra and one person from Sciop ( distribute the WO tasks.... ) the maintenance of the EMMI instrument could be separated on daily, monthly ... tasks and according the level of complexity TIO and Engineering group are involved. 8/10/2004 8:17:25 AM gandreon A meeting between AGI, RPA and mechanics will take place in order to determine the actions for each group. 8/10/2004 9:14:11 AM agilliot the meeting has been done . The list of the actual maintenance task performed by Telma is almost complete and can trigger flag when maintenance is required. 8/30/2004 3:55:11 PM agilliot The control of the Emmi functions is well defined and the operations are listed on the Remedy Task description. Mainly three level of maintenance is done on EMMI. The first level concerns the EMMI operationability in term of performances evalutations. It is under the SCIOP responsabilities. The second level concerns the maintenance of the optical element cleanliness under the responsability of the Optician of the Engineering group The third level concerns the verification of the proper behaviour of the EMMI functions regarding current requirement to move the functions. This part with known values is under the responsability of the Telma sub-group 9/7/2004 4:57:14 PM gandreon The actions in Remedy have to be reordered. 10/16/2004 3:17:12 PM agilliot A document has been issued and require approval before changing the Remedy system 11/9/2004 3:37:04 PM psinclai Iterations required as the document need some refining.

It has the option of creating an OB with the standard's coordinates, the proper slit and grism, and this OB can be loaded into the BOB and executed. The advantage of this tool for service mode observations is obvious. The tool weas developed on Paranal by Andreas Jaunsen and the software team. PROBLEM: I configured the tool to produce OBs for SofI, however, it looks like there is a conflict with the configuration of the local implementation of the VLT software because netiher the SofI OB is produced, nor OBs for any of the other instruments - i.e. I tested the ISAAC configuration and got the same result. It could be a problem of permissions too. I need help with debugging the problem.
