The DFM Engineering Telescope Control System (TCS), provides
a user-friendly interface to the telescope.
Utilizing an IBM compatible computer with multiple displays
and a keyboard, you have continual position display, status
reporting, and an easy-to-use, menu-driven command set.
Our pointing model corrects for precession, nutation, aberration,
atmospheric refraction, mount misalignments and flexure.
Typically, the DFM Engineering TCS and pointing model will
achieve 10 to 20 arc- second blind pointing to a 60°
zenith distance.
Computer operation is simple. A total of 28 commands are divided
into four submenus: initialization, movement, rates and miscellaneous.
All commands are available to your external computer, allowing
you to create your own custom user interface.
And the TCS becomes a peripheral to your computer system,
allowing integration with your own observing program.
