168 | | - use a good guess for the mid-point: |
169 | | focus in zd filter = -8400 + (1.4C - Ttruss)*110 |
170 | | * an instrument focus step of -100 (or -70, if the seeing is good) |
171 | | * at least 7 focus iterations and |
172 | | * a detector pixel shift of 30; |
173 | | * Make sure you have chosen the zd filter |
174 | | - execute the focus sequence |
175 | | - Edit the /data2/observer/mscfoc.cl script to change the file name of the focus image |
176 | | - In the IRAF window, type "mscfoc.cl" and follow the instructions |
