MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2018 Feb 05

Observer(s): Douglas, Weaver
Institution(s): Columbia

Instrument: OSMOS/R

Worked for 9 hours (most of the night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
Problems were encountered, see the separate trouble report for details.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable
   Mid: Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable
   End: Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

We got on sky in twilight and observed as long as M44 was up, but cirrus clouds 
affected our observations all night. 

We ran into trouble with the mdm24ws1 remote connector---it seems to have 
died completely at this point---and closed early. The guide probe also got stuck 
and we had to restart the MIS a couple of times.
