MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2016 Sep 02

Observer(s): Halpern, Alford
Institution(s): Columbia

Instrument: OSMOS

Worked for 10 hours (all night)
Conditions were Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 1.6 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable
   Mid: Seeing 1.4 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable
   End: Seeing 1.4 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

The only problem was that the mirror AC wasn't working all afternoon,
from about noon onward.  This was apparently not because of the
dewpoint, which was low.  I rebooted the computer this morning
following the instructions on the page in the computer room.
It still doesn't seem to be cooling, as the AC coils are at
ambient temperature. I (Jules) will check it again around noon.
