What's new at the 61"?
There is now a Telemetry Quick Look
GUI on gerard's desktop.
Displays in large font information that astronomers want!
It is still in the process of being developed
Any feedback or bugs can be sent to davner at email.arizona.edu
The password for bigccd1 is “azcam”.
The “kill bigpop” icon on bigaux is working again. You will need to enter the same username and password as Gerard.
The first time coming out of lightning shutdown, bigccd will freeze on the first exposure you take, locking the entire system and forcing you to hard shutdown the computer. To prevent this, when you first turn on bigccd restart the computer through the “start” menu before opening azcam. This has now been fixed. You can use bigccd as you normally would.
There is a new generator that fires up automatically when Trico power is lost.
With a new instrument being used at the 61“, homing the focus at the beginning of each night is of upmost importance. After homing, select Mont4K
from the FOCUS panel to set to a value close to the best focus for the Mont4K. Observers may not even see stars in images if the focus is too far off.
