HET Operations Manual
The purpose of doing afternoon Operations Engineering is to insure that the telescope is in the correct state for conducting nighttime observations. The essential ideas are to:
- Check early on the dome air conditioning to make sure that it is set properly for the anticipated sunset temperature.
- Bring up systems needed for nighttime operations and, check that they are running correctly.
- Recover from any issues found during Operations Engineering and recover from them before science begins.
- Record all issues accurately in bugzilla and in the OPS comment sections.
This document is the expanded form of the "OPs Checklist".
