MDM Trouble Report for 2001 Dec 23

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Helfand/Johnson (Columbia)
Instrument: Columbia

Problem(s) Encountered:
During the second half of the night the TCS displayed  Moving with
Autodome Off!  even though the switch was up.  For some (not all)exposures the 
dome did not track (dome error as much as 8), and we had to get it 
in the right place by resending coordinates after each exposure.
Tried 'kick dome' and flipping the aoutodome switch off and on which 
had no effect.

Also, yellow light for Dome enable switch not lit up, even though
depressed and dome did at times track.  Related?
