Observation requests for Lesedi+Mookodi

37 bytes removed, 9 October
/* Configuration: imaging with non-sidereal tracking */
*'''Acquire Mode''': The options are as follows, where AcN stands for "acquire nearest star" and "Acq" means to "acquire RA & Dec":
#''AcN:OFF&Acq:OFF'': this option simply points the telescope and starts the observation without making any pointing adjustments.
#''AcN:OFF&Acq:ON'': this option will centre the requested coordinates on the centre of the CCD. This should be used if the field is crowded and/or the target wouldn't be visible in a four second acquisition image. This is probably the best option here.#''AcN:ON&Acq:ON'': this option first centres the specified coordinates on the centre of the CCD, then adjusts the pointing to recentre on the brightest star found within a 3 arcsec search area around that position. This is useful for transients which may not have such accurate coordinates.
*'''Dither''': Select ''None'' as this is not commissioned on Lesedi+Mookodi.
