1. Instrument switch-on and connection of the warm electronic boxes


- currently done with tcl-script PACS_Switch_On.tcl (maintained by FGB)BR - after execution: PACS is in SAFE mode


2. Cooler recycling (only at HeII temperatures)


- starting out of SAFE modeBR - CUS script: BOLO_cool_recycle (no sub-procedures are called)BR - ending up in SAFE modeBR


3. General Setup for Photometer Operation (at warm, HeI, HeII temperatures and after cooler recycling)


- starting out of SAFE modeBR - CUS script:BR


4. Operation of the bolometers (starting out of PHOTOMETRY mode)


4.1. start/stop of bolometer data flow

4.2. Change of the bolometer data/sequence mode and gain

4.3. Take data with manual chopper & filter movements

4.4. Take data with pre-defined OBCPs

4.5. Execute AOT observations


5. Reset after photometer operation



6. Instrument switch-off
