MDM Trouble Report for 2006 May 17

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Sebastien Lepine (AMNH)
Instrument: Direct + Echelle

Problem(s) Encountered:
Around 1pm I got the following error from CCDCOM:

*** Problem clearing CCD, Camera not responding

I fixed it by doing several  cl . But about 10 minutes
later I got the following errors:

*** WARNING: Did not receive shutter close indication from camera
*** Problem clearing CCD, Camera not responding

I then tried a hardware reset of the camera. It came back on, 
but on the next exposure I got this error message:

*** Error encountered in asynchronous read: data suspect

and no image would write down. I finally turned the gold
power supply off and on again, apparently fixing the
problem; I did not get any more errors afterward.
