ENR CTIO Blanco 4-m 2014-04-10

Date: 
Thursday, April 10, 2014
Telescope: 
CTIO Blanco 4-m
Submitter: 
Catherine Kaleida
Submitter Email: 
ckaleida@ctio.noao.edu
Observer Support: 
Manuel Hernandez
Night Assistant: 
Mauricio Rojas
Also Present: 
Sean Points, Jay Elias
Problems: 

The TCS focus in the ISPI GUI frequents doesn't get you to the requested value on the first try: You have to command it to the same position ~2 times to get to the desired focus value.

The GUI crashed twice, once at the beginning of the night just before dome flats, and once in the middle of an observing sequence, between images ngc5532j.222.fits and ngc5532j.223.fits.
