More Tracking Woes
Wednesday, November 1, 2017 2:31 PM
Problem(s) Encountered:
Telescope stopped tracking and could not be fixed for at least
a couple of hours. Stop and start TCS didn''t fix it. Then it
spontaneously started working again.
Solutions:
This issue seems like it may be limited to a specific orientation on-sky. Specifically, it has happened with some repeatability around HA=-04:56/Dec=53. Of course, when trying to watch for anything odd on motor pulses/signals, the problem did not occur. It’s a kn own issue that we are scratching our heads over currently.
