MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2012 Aug 20

Observer(s): Rhiannon Griffin
Institution(s): University of Oklahoma

Instrument: OSMOS

No Observing (see comments below)
Conditions were Mixed most of the night.
Problems were encountered, see the separate trouble report for details.

Seeing and Weather:
   Clouds from 19:00 until 2:00.

Observing Summary:

Weather was poor for most of the night.  I tried to observe around 2 am.
The first time I tried to take an image using the observe command,
the pr command line gave me:

   Starting IR image 1 of 1  
   [IS > ERROR: No Route to Destination Host IR - host is unknown/
     unlisted]

It did take the image but then took image 2 of 1, then tried to do 
 image 3 of 1, but I aborted it (ended up closing and restarting
the pr window)

When I tried again it gave me the same error except it said image 1 of 0
and wouldn't actually start the exposure.  I tried quitting out of 
xtcs, xmis2, and the terminal windows (including prospero) and restart them
but got the same error message.  Except then when I tried to initialize 
xmis2 several of the buttons were red and there was an error message:
'Error NO Lamp communications, check log'.  Then the humidity had climbed to
just above 85% so I shutdown for the night.
