... The scheduling routines assist in creating an observing list (stored in the startable) from scratch or from another list stored on disk, and computing the visibility of the stars in a specific night and array configuration. The date of observation is taken from the variable date , and the array name from the variable systemid . If these are not defined, defaults are used for date (the next night) and for array (NPOI). ... addstar , stars _char Add one or more stars to the startable. ...

The Planning and Scheduling Tool was designed allow the user easily to take advantage of all available resources of the four telescopes (LASCO's three coronagraphs and the EIT Telescope) to maximize the use of the telemetry downlink. The Planning Tool allows users to develop customized observing sequences while monitoring compression factors and on-board processing times to realistically work within the limits of the instruments. ...

Next: Reducing the observations Up: PEPSYS general photometry Previous: Influencing the plan . ... If the telescope and instrumentation are unfamiliar to you, you may have trouble keeping to the schedule for the first night or two, so try to work with a previous observer on the equipment for a night or two of training before your observing run. If you fall behind, try to keep as many low-altitude observations of extinction stars as you can, and drop some circumzenithal ones if necessary. ...

... The various Inst :Focus scripts allow you to take a series of exposures over a range of secondary mirror focus values, report the resulting FWHMs and optionally adjust the focus to the estimated best value. ... Slitviewer scripts assume the focus star is on the boresight. ... Focus scripts runs in three phases: . ... The script moves the boresight so the focus star is visible next to the slit, sets the focus to Center Focus, takes an exposure and tries to measure the star's FWHM. ...
