- | ====== Schulman Telescope Limits ====== | ||
- | The telescope has both mechanical limits and software limits in place. For purposes of this document the mechanical limits are defined by the diagram below (please refer to it in the following discussion). The software limits imposed on the system by the LCOGT software are effectively the mechanical limits on each axis. Other programs such as ACP have software limits that are adjustable. Generally these are either set to be very close to the mechanical limits or in some positions represent when the mirror is more than 50% occulted by the dome wall. | ||
