How to start up observatory
Check weather (outside conditions)
Log on to control PC via VNC skydome.mpe.mpg.de port 5200
1st check if mount handpad program and focuser program are running
and connected to mount and focuser respectively.
This should usally be the case.
- If they are not started, start up windows internet explorer.
Log on to ePower #1
Check if focuser and mount are powered on ePower #1.
- Power up the focuser is necessary
- Power up mount if necessery: (switch on power supply, then toggle mount switch both on ePowerSwitch #1)
- if not yet powered up (usually it should be powered up).
- power imager(s) if not already powered up (ethernet PDU)
- open dome
How to start up GOWI
- cool imager to target temperature (-30C typically)
- start dark and bias frame sequence
- set focuser to expected setting for the night (if known)
take skyflats until start of actual observations
