MDM Trouble Report for 2011 Mar 23

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): John Thorstensen (Dartmouth)
Instrument: Nellie direct; retrocam

Problem(s) Encountered:
Around midnight, a sequence of exposures failed with an error
message about camera communication, which I failed to write down
(sorry).  I tried clearing the camera and starting again, but it
failed again.  Then I tried pushing the reset button, which 
didn't work; then I repeatedly cycled the CCD power supply.  
After several dozen attempts at reviving the system I went over
to retrocam.  So, it's still broke.
