In the warm room, you will find:
* '''If using STE3 or STE4''', a PC labelled '''imag40''', running the CCD Camera Control software.
* A thin client with monitor labelled '''ltsp''' that saves the data from the instrument PC and can be used to run a web browser, ds9, etc. For SHOC, it can be used to run the instrument control software via a web browser. It is possible to download your data to a laptop on the network from this PC (use '''scp''' or '''sftp ccd40@ltsp.suth''' - the monitor is labelled with the password).
* A PC running the '''Telescope Control Software (TCS)''' for acquisition and guiding. Associated with this are a second monitor on a shelf (which displays the target and telescope coordinates, etc.) and '''hand paddle''' for fine adjustment of the telescope coordinates while acquiring an object.
* Several network cables and power sockets for use with laptops.
* A black & white printer. Print command: '''lpr -Ppr30in ''filename'''''
At present there are no DVD writers, USB ports or DAT drives in the dome for copying data from ltsp.
