MDM Trouble Report for 2017 Nov 10

Telescope: 1.3m
Observer(s): Ryan Chornock et al. (Ohio University)
Instrument: Templeton

Problem(s) Encountered:
We experienced some issues moving the telescope in dec near the beginning of the night.

It was working for our initial twilight flats, but we started getting  pointing not converging errors  and eventually we reached a state where I couldn't even home the Dec drive.  I tried a telescope stop/start and restarting the TCS GUI to no avail.

I spoke to Eric over the phone and he talked me through power-cycling the dec controller, which was displaying an error.  We had no more problems after that.
