Summary
| Description |
English: Hereford Arizona Observatory - 20100206
The control room has dedicated computers for the M14 (right) and C11 (left). Each computer commands the telescope, focuser, CCD, etc using serial and USB cables or wireless units. Communication with the CCD cameras employs 100-foot ethernet cables and pairs of USB boosters (Icron). Each computer has a dual DVI video card for display on two LCD monitors. In this view both telescopes are observing the same object, as seen by their respective left panel displays. The right displays are usually used for display of TheSky/Six which assists in positioning the main chip FOV so that the autoguider chip has a sufficiently bright guide star. The M14 station includes a wireless audio/video camera display; this provides audible and visual feedback of M14 movements. |
