Once the Startup procedure is complete, the button will read '''Shutdown''', and should be used to close everything at the end of observing. The shutdown script essentially reverses the Startup procedure:
# Turn on Set the dome to remote control (in most scenarios it will already be in remote, but just as a precaution)# Switch on slew lights# Close the mirror covers# Close the dome shutters# Park the Stop dome from tracking telescope # Park dome at alt=50, az=90270°# Park the dome telescope at az=27090°, alt=50° # Park rotators# Switch off the slew lights# Switch off fluorescent lights (likely to be off, but as a precaution)
Control of the dome is not given up, but it can be "taken" using the lockout in the dome. It is not necessary to lockout the dome after use; staff will use this function when working in the dome.
'''If you don't want to run the full Startup procedure''' (e.g. because it's daytimeand the dome should not open), but do need to interact with the telescope, control of individual subsystems can be ***************how much of commanded from the controls Advanced tab works . Buttons on the Controls tab will work without startup?****running Startup (with the exception of Shutdown), though the telescope will need to be "unparked" from the Advanced tab before it can slew.
