TCS startup

You have to startup the Telescope Control System (TCS) before starting up the DAS/ICS system. The TCS runs on an DEC-Alpha station, which can be accessed from an Xterminal in the control room. At this Xterminal, startup a TELNET session to lpas1.

         Username: JKT_LOGIN
         Password:
                           (the current password is posted in the control room)

This will bring up a menu. You can start the TCS by typing

         START

This will fire up two new windows: the Telescope Info Display which displays the telescope position etc., and the TCS User Interface window.
