MDM Trouble Report for 2002 Sep 2

Telescope: 1.3m
Observer(s): Erik Brogt (Columbia)
Instrument: 8k

Problem(s) Encountered:
Filterwheel is not moving. Neither by computer nor manual (ACE)
control. The shaft at the east side of the telescope is not
moving either.
Paul suggested a possible work-around if this can't be fixed.
Somewhere in the software it may be possible to overwrite the
check on filterwheel sensors, making observations possible by
opening the filterwheel door and moving the filters by hand.
Anyone any idea if, and how this is possible?
