ENR CTIO 1.5-m 2024-12-01

Date: 
Sunday, December 1, 2024
Telescope: 
CTIO 1.5-m
Submitter: 
Sebastian Carrazco
Submitter Email: 
jcarrazcogaxiola1@gsu.edu
Observer Support: 
None
Night Assistant: 
None
Problems: 

At the beggining of the night, UT 2:12, and UT 2:48 exposures were automatically been taken with less than a second for no clear reason. Exposure time in the CHIRON GUI seemed correct until you click the Start button. I tried to change the modes and restarted the CHIRON GUI until it was working again.

RA; At UT 4:40/CT 1:40 guide was lost by a problem in the RA movement. Aprox HA 02:28:50 Offset movement started getting really slow. Also since then, NOS wasn't sending coordimates to the TCS so I manually introduced the coordinates for the targets. Conections problem?

Saludos.
