MDM Trouble Report for 2019 Jan 28

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Elisabeth Newton (Stephanie Douglas remote) (Dartmouth College)
Instrument: Modspec

Problem(s) Encountered:
The guider was very out of focus and the focus setting would not change. We approximately focused the telescope on the slit viewer, but the guider was extremely out of focus. Pressing the In/Our buttons on the Guider Focus GUI had no apparent effect, even when holding the buttons down for >10 seconds. I changed the track box size to maximum, but the donut was too large to guide on. Took two spectra without guiding, pretty ratty. The weather was poor so this issue had minimal impact on data.
