The main reasons are as follows: 1) Two months of Bad weather conditions at the station, caused by a series of six large-scale typhoons 2) The fault of a dome drive part, which took four months to investigate the cause and repair it. 3) A problem of the timing measurement part. The cause is under investigation. We regret that we have had to stop the operation for a long period of time soon after the beginning of the observation. We are doing our best to investigate and fix the problem, so that the operation can be resumed by the end of the current fiscal year (i.e. the end of March). Thank you for your understanding.
