MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observing Report for 2010 Sep 23

Observer(s): Chien-Ting Chen
Institution(s): Dartmouth

Instrument: CCDS

Worked for 12 hours (all night)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Clear, Winds Calm
   Mid: Seeing 2.43 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm
   End: Seeing 3.15 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

Due to my lack of experience, I didn't made the correct pointing at the beginning, but the bottom half night went smoother. 

During the last few hours of the night, sometimes I'd hear a beep from the telescope, and the control panel would show a sentence :  sent failed operation to Dome/ Network out  in a very short period of time. I'm not sure if there's anything wrong.
