Date: 
Friday, December 11, 2020
Telescope: 
CTIO Blanco 4-m
Submitter: 
Harold Pena
Observer Support: 
Manuel Hernandez
Night Assistant: 
Claudio Aguilera
Also Present: 
Sean Points
Problems: 

We lost 2 hrs for pointing and acquisition problems. We don't understand this problem. We performed start of the night procedures similar to the previous 2 engineering nights, but the objects were not in the field.  We eventually restarted the observing software and performed a new zero point that solved the problems.

Usual login and password for astronomers in Night Report did not work.  We were able to logon to the Night Report webpage using the account of "spoints" and his password.
