Log
-when starting up the telescope was very not at zenith, and when checking the control computer shutdown procedure was not followed -so tracking, drives, motor driver chassis and halt motors where on and out but the telescope would not move -shut down correctly and restarted but to no avail -because telescope was at limit no commands were getting to the motors -set up steppladder and pushed on the telescope while slewing in the southbound direction to get it out of limit -once out of limit could use hand paddle to get it to zenith and confirmed position in TCS -tried to open mirror doors but only south opened repeated opening several times on the control computer and tried it manually still stuck so decided to pack it in -
