Night Assistant: 
Roberto Aviles
Problems: 

1. Before this trip, I followed the visitor's computer guide to submit my MAC address to ITOps,  so that my laptop can be connected to the intranet. The approval was issued by R. Cardemil. After trying a few ethernet ports in the control room and Javier's help, the connection via ethernet is not successful. If this instruction is out-dated due to the new security protocal, please update the visiting astronomer's website.

2. Also, it is odd that the ctimac4 is considered an outside computer, even though it stays in the 1.5-m control room. Ctimac4 can only connect to the PublicWiFi. 

3. The telescope finally slews to the intended zero point for the first time, but it only works for just one field!
