* 02:00UT We go to the sky for the first time. Clear sky, opacity about 0.2 pretty stable.
The sky noise seems good on the 3 arrays (see the plots below). A little worse on array 3 (1mm NIKEL DC).
Figure. Noise on the sky for the 2mm, 1mm (array 1) and 1mm (array 3).

* Andrea arrived at the telescope.
* Status of the Instrument:
- The cryostat is at the nominam temperature T_100mK=150mK
- All the 20 feedlines are connected.
- The acquisition works nominally (few problems in the morning concerning the ports closed in nika2)
- We are producing normal,compressed and mini file on nika2 and mac12 during the night to check if they are right. First check is ok. We will keep checking tomorrow morning.
- We checked the modulation of the HWP and all the polarisation facilities of nika2. It seems to work nominally.
Hereafter some plot to check the good health of NIKA2:
Figure. Left: trace of the 1140 pixels of array 3; right: monitor with all the 20 boards tuned.
THE NOISE is taken with the window on the cryostat. It is in agreement with the previous observing campaign. No traces of the pulse tube.
Figure. Noise with the window on respectively the 2mm, 1mm NIKEL_RF (array 1) and 1mm NIKEL_DC (array 3)
