MDM Trouble Report for 2011 Jan 17

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Jackie Faherty and Sebastien Lepine (American Museum of Natural History)
Instrument: Nellie

Problem(s) Encountered:
We had an issue with the TCS where it froze as the telescope was slewing.  We were moving from a position close to zenith to a southern target (at +11 dec).
The telescope continued past the target without stopping and then turned off
as it reached the limits.  We then tried to re-adjust back to the zenith manually but the TCS was frozen so 
we had to re-boot the TCS computer completely (following the lightning shut-down
procedure through the TCS shutdown step).  After we restarted everything worked fine with the TCS for
the rest of the evening.
