DX LUCI2 AO and ESM unavailable (June 3, 2024)
A detached mirror in the pyramid modulator of the LUCI2 WFS was discovered. LUCI 2 full AO and ESM will remain unavailable until a repair can be made. This repair will require the procurement of parts, as well as the removal of the instrument. As such, it will likely take place during the summer shutdown period.
DX LUCI2 DL and ESM unavailable (May 31, 2024)
During daytime testing, a blockage was discovered on the DX WFS that was blocking the light going to the pyramid (possibly a moth). Diffraction-limited full AO or ESM on DX-LUCI2 is unavailable until an intervention can be performed and the blockage removed.
