16:00-21:00; Ioannis: System check begins directly after maintenance around 16:30. NIKA2 acquisition is restarted. After few trials we get a good tuning with 42/5/48 dead kids for Arr1/Arr2/Arr3. The correlated noise in the traces of Arr1 is still visible at 2.6, 5.5 and 8 Hz. We start with very good weather conditions (tau225 ~ 0.15 and baseline variations of 0.5-1 Jy/beam at 2mm) and do pointing and focus on Uranus (beam size 17.7" at 2mm and best focus -1.3mm). Manuel adjusts parameters P2 and P7 of the pointing model and I start a short pointing session with 16 sources that cover an azimuth range of 120-289 degrees and elevation range of 10-73 degrees. The results yield an azimuth correction of 1.81" +/- 1.99" and an elevation correction of -6.29" +/- 1.28". Given the large offset from (0,0) we readjust parameter P2 and run a second short pointing session with 11 sources that cover an azimuth range of 120-283 degrees and elevation range of 27-70 degrees. The final results yield an azimuth correction of 1.13" +/- 0.99" and an elevation correction of 0.47" +/- 1.56" and we decide to keep this settings for the ongoing pool week. The shift is finished with a retuning of NIKA2 in preparation for the night shifts. After few trials we get a good tuning with 38/8/48 dead kids for Arr1/Arr2/Arr3. Throughout the shift tau225 was below 0.2 and the baseline stability was between 0.3 and 4 Jy/beam at 2mm.
