-**NOTES FROM PETER MILNE**\\ \\  
-I suggest that you have two pages viewable in your browser, this mtnops  
-page and the status page. For a remote person (like me), I can see from the  
-webcam and the status variables whether things are working. For a local person,  
-the webcam saves walking into the dome (unless you enjoy that little bit of  
-limbo).  
  
-mtnops page: 
-http://slotis.kpno.noao.edu/LOTIS/tr/mtnops_test.html 
- 
-SL status page: 
-http://slotis.kpno.noao.edu/LOTIS/status.php 
- 
-This DOES NOT have the camera take images. It powers the camera, but no  
-images. The reason for this is that eddy controls the camera, and at this point  
-I need to figure out the way to run that from a script on slotis.  
- 
-Also, discussions are underway to set-up an override so the roof can be opened a  
-bit during the daytime. The script above only opens for 10 seconds and then sends  
-a stop, followed a minute later by a close....and it might only work when the  
-boltwood script is disabled.

-**TESTING SuperLOTIS AFTER SHUTDOWN**\\  
-  - Log into ''slotis.kpno.noao.edu'' (password in control room) 
-  - Log on as superuser by typing ''su'' (password in control room)  
-  - Type ''pete'' (changes directory to /home/slotis/pete_auto)  
-  - Open a browser, go to http://slotis.kpno.noao.edu/LOTIS/status.php (bookmarked)  
-    - The TCS block should be updating the local time and the TCS values should make sense.  
-    - Look for UT or LST values that make no sense.  
-    - The Weather Status should be regularly updating. The roof should show Closed and the Precip should show Not Raining.  
-    - The System Temperatures should make sense.  
-    - Check the Vacuum and Focus to make sure they do not show red (meaning out of bounds readings)  
-    - The Camera Status value that is important is Camera Power, as the others do not update until the camera software runs its start-up (which is not part of this testing)  
-  - Type ''./mtnops_testing''  
-  - That script will do the following in order:  
-    - Flash the domelight on and off a few times (as a warning and tests commands)  
-    - power the mount and camera and chiller  
-    - Send movement commands (zenith, south ELAZ (30,180), west ELAZ (45,270), stow)  
-    - Partially open roof, pause and then close roof  
-    - Power down and kill scripts that were running  
-  - Watch the webpage as these commands are executed. If onsite, you will hear some of these commands execute:  
-    - The domelight should be obvious in the webcam as it turns on and off.  
-    - The webpage should then show the MOUNT and CAMERA go from OFF to ON.  
-    - The telescope should been seen to move to the positions in the webcam and the TCS values should display those moves.  
-    - The telescope should return to stow.  
-    - The roof should be seen to open slightly in the webcam. Then stop. Then close.  
-    - The MOUNT and CAMERA power should turn off.  
-

-SuperLOTIS is good to go <del>(like a crunchwrap supreme)</del>
