MDM Trouble Report for 2004 Nov 24

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Glikman, McGreer (Columbia University)
Instrument: TIFKAM

Problem(s) Encountered:
After the humididty dropped to 85% around midnight, we opened up 
according to the mdm manual chacklist.  
The TV GUIDER never registered an image on the tv monitor.
The tvguider program started up ok, but there was never any 
signal on the tv (except for the oval and square cursors, and 
coordinates in the corner).  We tried to switch to 'finder' mode
and it beeped and said:

No video signal - guiding stopped!
No camera present - attach camera or hit any key to exit!

We looked in the dome and didnt see any obvious camera or cable 
to be plugged in.  There didnt seem to be any loose cables 
anywhere.  We simply could not get a picture on the TV of 
anything - even noise.

Stopped trying at 3am.
