 =====Notes===== =====Notes=====
 +Had a difficult time getting the PICSI2 mounted correctly, a crucial cable (USB to USB micro-b) for the circuit board was missing and we had to make do with what was in the control room. Not the best quality.
 +Most of the night was spent trying to get the ASI533 feed to come through the NUC's Sharpcap - and reseated the connections multiple times before looking for other cables to swap out. We eventually got a feed going at 0200, but it was greatly out of focus.
  
-=====Weather=====+Additionally pointing was horrendously off. We repointed the telescope using Arcturus
  
 +Takeaways:
 +Update the training with astropol trouble shooting 
 +Make a manual for the PICSI2 using the document Ian Kirn has written - just a simplified explanation of all connections and software (complete with photos)
