Ino explained: MOS was totally desynchronised with PLC. (It was assuming that the telescope was parked.) He parked the telescope manually. Thanks!
Experts will investigate on Monday. But the shift crews can continue to use the Drive Control and tracking.

On park-in command, telescope went to the right position 95/-1, but did not recognise that it was there.
Pushed Park-In again
Acknowledged one error
Then everything fine.

Sat Jul 6 22:47:38 2019, Dirk Hoffmann, Telescope Operations, General, Car flash from road above+,
|
When checking the telescope visually outside, while it was in the "park-out" position, a car happened to pass by from the upper road (coming
from the other telescopes). Its lights flashed directly into the camera. It seems that the road is in direct prolongation of our current park-out position.
We saw the CAM HV going down several times in the park-out position (where the shutter is typically opened) during the last weeks. Can |

Changes in Drive.ccp to allow azimuth negative values.

new session of high speed drive tests after issues with Power Supply.
Tests of emergency stop (with a speed at 25% and 43 % GRB speed) with a modification of the jerk value from 0.08 to 0.2 ==> OK
Tests
of azimuth movements : (-90 to 270 degres)
at 60% of GRB speed. ==> Ok for 6 movements
at 80% of GRB speed
Ok |

Different ParkOut and Parkin done with different values for testing the torque limitation.
By decreasing the torque and the
position , the parkin failed because we are not in the CSS locking sensor (in locking position)
By setting back the original values, th
parkin is ok but the bolt cannot be properly inserted.

- During shutter tests, we were requested to move the telescope many times between two positions at different zenith. Sometimes, once the position is
reached and in the log I got the message 'GoToTelescopePosition Done received', the command panel stay stack with the "action in progress"
bar without possibility to perform other atctions. I need to click to 'general abort' to stop the action and get the panel comand back. It |

When parking in the telescope, accidently hit "Shutdown" button instead of "Parkin" in Drive Semi-epert GUI. Nothing seem to happen
for minutes despite telling command in progress "Shutdown"
Texted Drive experts, they told to just hit again the correct "Parkin" button. |

After finishing the normal start-up procedure, we tried to park out by GUI, but got an error (22:30 local time): "MSG_WARNINGPark_Out_TimeOut"
The Drive, FSM and Command Statuses were "Parked", "in parking Area" and "No command in progress," respectively.
We closed&reopend the GUI and "Park Out" three times, but everytime got the same error. |

First we checked the LEDs of the black Ethernet cable. LINK in green was constantly ON and ACT in orange was blinking. |

Drive GUI stacked due to a wrong shutdown procedure (Jul. 27th 01-02UTC). This was simply a human error.
First, we pushed ParkIn button as usual in the end of the night. We confirmed the telescope was in Locking Position in GUI, but most probably overlooked |
