P72-503: The local transient Universe
PI: E. Kankare, M. Stritzinger, T. Reynolds
ToO + SoftToO triggers with ALFOSC
Observations will be requested with ALFOSC and the OB generator will
be used to request all ToO and SoftToO observations.
To summarise:
Go to the directory
cd ~/scripts/72-503
List the available scripts
ls -lrt
and execute the OB generated scripts requested in the trigger email.
For these ToO and Soft ToO triggers, please remember to fill in the
ToO and
SoftToO reports.
Fixed scheduled Service observations with NOTCam
The OB generator will be used to request all observations. For each night,
the PI will submit OBS through the OB-generator. These OBs needs to be
queued and compiled by the observer.
In order to queue the observations, enter the OB generator and click on the
Queue it! button.
Then compile the scripts manually, either through the
compile buttons in the OB generator or from within the OB queue.
Scripts are placed in the directory ~/scripts/72-503/ and these
observations have their own EON form (i.e. no ToOMon report to fill!).
