Telescope Motion Failure, Tracking Shuts Off
Monday, June 10, 2019 1:50 PM
Problem(s) Encountered:
At 20:15 I tried to observe target, but suddenly slew error occurred. And changed tracking off. I tried again at 20:45 but same error occurred. At 20:45,target was RA=09:36:08.7, dec=65:10:54.9
Second slew error occurred at 01:08:58. Target's RA= 13:23:49.52, dec=65:41:48.2
Solution:
Were these targets well off to the east? If so, this is likely a known issue that occasionally crops up when pointing in that region.Tested telescope motions today and all appears well currently.
