SNAG+LIST

=20 Inch F4 in Dome task list=

=Wide field camera task list=
 * ACP plans need refining to remove objects that are not galaxies or are too small/faint (ONGOING 80% complete as of Nov 2010).
 * Dome can stick with ice to the skirt in very cold weather. Old the skirt to the dome rub ring. When this happens you get bad scope comms in he Sitech controller as the scope has run into the dome az limit and cut the power. You need to move the dome physically back in sync with the scope. PROBLEM SOLVED. Grease the skirt to the dome wall. White grease sprayed on. PROBELM REAPPEARED. The dome skirt has now been added in sections so it is not too tight. COMPLETED
 * Dome Azimuth motor too slow. Need to replace to increase slew speed to >2 deg/sec. VSD required as in run off roof to replace shunt motor.
 * Absolute encoders to be installed
 * Motorised Focus (now under control using the Observatory Auxiliary Control sofwtare. COMPLETED)
 * Derotator drive Sitech needed (not essential at the moment with short exposures for Supernova runs)
 * ACP to Sitech offset VERY important! Still not fixed. Dan has been emailed. No response as yet. PROBLEM SOLVED. New version V0.53H has fixed the problem.
 * Indictaor required to state doem open or closed and/or ok to open the dome. Web cam be able to see indicator. (COMPLETED, new Observatory Auxiliary control softare and internal web cam)
 * Dome door drive too slow. New more powerful and faster drive required. (this has now been upgraded with a new motor. COMPLETED)
 * Plan chaining in ACP. Dry run first in the day with any plate solves. Not now required. New larger plans being developed
 * Add SHUTDOWN to the ACP plans (this is added to the last or approprite plan (SEE USER GUIDE)
 * Replace the main rain sensor and add additional for backup. Add shroudd to protect from direct sunlight.
 * ASCOM problem with ACP/Sitech.? Dan/Bob do not know what the problem is. Fix at the moment is to bin out Sitech immediately after starting ACP run (TIMER EXCEPTION) then restart Sitech and reconnect to scope in ACP. roblem fixed. Not great!
