The problem was the below error when you = set the gcam instrument block. I don't know how to solve this particular = problem, but the errors you received after this are irrelevant because = the TCC explicitly stated: "the guide camera TCC_GCAM1 will not be usable until you fix the = problem" when you tried to set the gcam instrument block. Messages like this showed up in old night logs, but I don't know the = solution. At least, though, we should be pointing to the correct = problem.
