MDM Trouble Report for 2015 Oct 02

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Ryan Chornock et al. (Ohio University)
Instrument: OSMOS

Problem(s) Encountered:

I slewed from my last science target of the morning to a standard star in twilight.  Upon arriving, I got no counts above the bias in my acquisition image.  Some tests indicated a likely shutter issue. I pointed at zenith and went in the dome, where I discovered that the cable leading to the shutter had become detached.

I plugged it back in and everything now works, but too late for morning standards.
