Observation requests for Lesedi+Mookodi

370 bytes removed, 9 October
/* Configuration: spectroscopy */
*'''Type''': Choose ''Expose'' here. 
*'''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'': do not use this for spectroscopy, option simply points the target will not land on telescope and starts the slitobservation 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.
#''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.
===Instrument Configuration===
'''Instrument Category'''Setup the instrument configuration as per the section on either [[#Configuration: SPECTRAsingle filter imaging |single filter]] or [[#Configuration: multiple filter imaging |multiple filter]] imaging.
'''Instrument Configuration''' '''Filter''': Mookodi has two filter magazines, which the OCS calls Filter and Obfilter (below). There needs to be one filter – and only one filter – in the beam at any time, so you need to select one from one of the two magazines. In this box you can select an SDSS filter. If you want to use a clear filter, it is in the next field, so select OUT here.'''Obfilter''': If you have selected an SDSS filter in the Filter option, select OUT here. Otherwise select Clear. Do not select OrdBlk_Fltr - this is for spectroscopy.'''Slit''': OUT'''Grism''': OUT '''===Target'''===
'''Type''': ''Non-sidereal''
