You can tell this from the fact that the numbers in a tpm window are a steady red. This can be solved by rebooting the MiG box on the telescope. I imagine most people already know where this is, but for those who don't, it is on the side of an enclosure at the back of the telescope on the PSS to the left of the podium, and is most easily reached with the altitude at zenith.
