We were observing the 1st object using a script. The 1st observation of the script was fine, the telescope then performed an offset. I then noticed that we were not exposing for the 2nd observation in the script. There was a timeout error. This occurred around UT 03:00. The 1st exposure in the sequence was obj_0041.fits. This error repeated again. See errors around UT 03:47-03:50. One cannot use the instrument like this.

We waited 2hrs to open for the humidity to lower to ~60%. At the star of the night it was ~90% and falling.
