-After you first login
-.In a unix (xterm) window type "dataserver" and minimize it
-.in another xterm window, type "galilserver" and minimize it
-.In yet another, type "fw-gui" and minimize it.  The gui comes up saying "filter in beam", all you need to do is to hit "unload" (This begs the question of the possibility of a filter in the beam and the wheel rotated. we supposedly have safeguards)
-Then:
-.Click on "READ FILTERS"--> this spins the wheel twice to read and verify filter codes (don't ask why. and i THINK it's still true that there must be 6 good filter codes, ie, 6 filters in the wheel)
-.Click INITIALIZE --> this spins the wheel once more (again, don't ask why)
-.Select a filter with radio button. click SELECT and it spins the filter wheel
-.Put filter in by clicking LOAD
-.To change filters:
-UNLOAD
-SELECT
-LOAD
-FOCUS button moves focus that number of stepper motor steps. Stepper motor steps are what you enter into ficus routine in CCD GUI.
-NOMINAL PLANE sets differences between focus actuators ABC to stored, magically derived, values.
-SET REFERENCE- stores best focus once you've derived it
-RESTORE FOCUS- sets ABC to what's stored by SET REFERENCE
-POPULATE and POPULATE DONE are for physically installing filters (done by day crew)
-So a normal sequence is:
-.Load a filter
-.NOMINAL PLANE
-.Run Focus sequence on CCD computer
-.Set best focus and SET REFERENCE
-.Observe
-.Restore focus
-.Observe
-.Restore focus
-The telescope control software needs to be running for things like ra/dec to be in header.
-The operator has to start things on his computer for guider actions.
