MDM Trouble Report for 2015 Nov 23

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Hodges-Kluck, Park, Shinn, Jeon (Michigan/SNU)
Instrument: OSMOS-B

Problem(s) Encountered:
At the end of the night the dome encoders got lost and the dome 
started rotating and getting stuck, occulting the telescope 
(possibly similar to the  fugue state  mentioned in prior 
trouble reports).

The TCS stated (and continues to)  Dome occulting telescope 
and  Attempting to move with drives off  and  RA or DEC encoders
not responding  (earlier it just said  Dec ). We manually moved
the dome to home at the end of the night and put the telescope
at zenith, but both may still be somewhat lost. 

We tried to follow solutions from the archive, but nothing 
seemed to work. Since daylight was breaking, we didn't 
investigate pointing, but the telescope was able to basically
find zenith.
