MDM Trouble Report for 2019 Oct 19

Telescope: 2.4m
Observer(s): Rupert (MDM)
Instrument: OSMOS/B

Problem(s) Encountered:
Had an issue with the telescope focus tonight. I noticed it
wasn't maintaining the focus I set at the beginning of the
night (was supposed to be 5275, I caught it at 5299). Couldn't
move it my giving it a focus value in the  Misc  window. I
power cycled the TCS computer and the chassis, but still it
wouldn't budge through the  Misc  window. Throughout these
attempts to adjust the focus in this way I could hear the motors
running, but to no avail. I finally tried to move focus with
the hand paddle at its fastest speed which worked. I was able
to move the focus with the  Misc  window after that. Lost about
20 minutes.
