Problems: 
  • We started doing a zpoint (on the guider) in the usual way (M2 desactivated) but the star disappeared (we couldn't find it again). Then we tried to do it with M2 activated, but the star disappeared again (this time it went 40" to the north and 10" to the east). Omar Estay gave us some tips about this issue.
  • Then we went to the position of the grid for the Skymap (e.g. near HA 0, Dec -90) and we couldn't find the star again. This happened with stars of all the catalogues.
  • The F8SEC app had some comunication issues (we lost the telescope focus, we lost de M2 baseline).
  • We couldn't end the Skymap.
