We experienced some unusual behavior as we were verifying that fiducials were reading properly during test slews. The first slew from 121,30,00 to 121,90,00 at 22:39Z began as usual, but the altitude axis slowed down and eventually came to a stop at an altitude of 43 deg. After 5-10s the altitude brake then engaged. A 'tcc axis init' to clear the brake and then another commanded slew to 121,90,00 worked as expected. The subsequent slew from 121,90,00 to 75,90,35 did not complete because at 22:41Z the azimuth axis slowed down and eventually came to a stop at 112 deg. The azimuth brake came on a few seconds after azimuth motion halted. A 'tcc axis init' to clear the brake and then another commanded slew to 75,90,35 worked as expected. Note that these two uncompleted slews are different from "typical" axis aborts because (1) the axis slowed down to a stop as if it were approaching a target position and (2) the brake came on noticeably later than the axis motion halted. The "typical" axis aborts usually result in the axis motion halting relatively quickly with no obvious indication that the axis slowed down before the halt and the brake comes on almost immediately to coincide with the halted motion.
