MDM Trouble Report for 2011 Aug 31

Telescope: 1.3m
Observer(s): Nathan Utterback (Dartmouth)
Instrument: Red4k

Problem(s) Encountered:
The burst script, that has been used as a workaround for the trouble with focusing via TCS, has been having problems. The displayed focus is not accurate, and sometimes when running ./burst, the script will fail to execute at all, or change by wildly different amounts. This made it very difficult to focus the telescope, as it was impossible to properly set the focus.
