Observing via Zoom is less than ideal and causes significant issues repeatily during the night. First, there is a delay in the screen updating which has the end result of only being able to read the values displayed in the GUIs for a split second, every few seconds. Second, due to the lag between keystroke and GUI being updated taking up to five seconds, I end up hitting buttons multiple times which causes a lose of observing efficently. For example, it is difficult to know if you have hit a button, you wait five seconds, the screen does not update, so you press the button again to then discover two button presses are registered. This is very problematic with focus and IRAF commands.
