... The distomats measure the average height of the platform every 2 minutes. If the average platform height is more than .04 inches from the nominal position, the tiedowns will pull (or release) equally on all 3 corners to bring the average height back to the nominal position. ... The platform corner height versus dome position (at fixed average platform height) shows that the platform corners move by +/- 6 inches just from the dome motion (this was before the alfa upgrade). ...

... This plug-in enables you to add various types of lighting effects to your (RGB) image. ... Directional light . ... Well, you get the idea :) The default settings for this light-type is [-0.5,-0.5,-1.0]. ... Higher values makes your image reflect a lot of light (appear lighter or more intense), while smaller values makes it appear more dull or matte. ... A value of 1.0 makes your image very shiny (bright high-lights) while smaller values makes you image less shiny, making the high-lights dimmer. ...

... We report on the status of a two channel photometric restoration technique and its current implementation as an IRAF task called GIRA. This method is particularly suited to stellar photometric measurements in crowded fields or in images where an extended structured background is present. ... One such method is a two channel photometric restoration method known as GIRA first conceived by one of us (L. B. Lucy) and which is under development at the ST-ECF (Pirzkal et al. ...

... The J, H and K bands are characterized by a bright background, such a background is mainly due to the emission of atmospheric lines and of thermal radiation. ... If the source cover a large fraction of the slit, spectra off-source must be observed to adequately sample the sky background. ... The on chip integration time (time spent in each position of the slit) must not exceed 40 seconds in J and H bands and 60 seconds in K band. ... We suggest a sequence of 10 for each elementary integration time. ...

... The following is a description of how to adjust the declination drive motor and worm mechanism.  ... In an earlier MAPUG post, I described adjusting the worm carriage spring tension to minimize retrograde motion by REDUCING carriage spring tension just enough to lift the worm into contact with the worm wheel and NO MORE.  The purpose of the carriage spring is to variably remove backlash in the Dec (and RA) drive.  ... The amount of carriage float is adjusted by the carriage set screw stop.  ...
