NOTE: The Health Check and calChecker services are moved to qcFlow on an instrument by instrument basis. The current pages will not be updated any longer once the move has been finished.
SPHERE news:
Note that the current Health Check monitor runs with an incomplete pipeline and an incomplete set of QC1 parameters.
QCG can currently not guarantee completeness and significance at the usual level.
This plot monitors the instrumental issue: ZIMPOL shutter.
This plot shows a QC parameter which measures if all planes of the raw frame
data cube are illuminated (low rms over the plane medians) or not (high rms over the plane medians).
The issue is monitored for FastPolarimetry and SlowPolarimetry readmode and
for both camera, which should react syncroneously.
The issue started on 2016-05-01 and was fixed on 2016-06-01.
More details on the issue can be found on the SPHERE problems page (see
navigation bar) or on the plot tutorial page.
