MDM Trouble Report for 2011 Dec 14

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Murphy, Santana (Ohio University)
Instrument: R4K

Problem(s) Encountered:
When power cycled off the generator and back onto the electrical
grid, there was an apparent failure of the airbag controller 
and/or the airbags themselves.

The three telescope hard point values make no sense whatsoever,
(very far from the 30 value we want) and there are a series of 
error messages on the monitor:

dgh error 1 in read_dgh_response '?1 NOT READY'

... plus many more errors of a similar nature.

We also stopped hearing the usual sequence of clicking sounds
from the airbags at that point.
