Wise Observatory One Meter Telescope Manual
2016
The Wise Observatory of Tel-Aviv University saw first light in 1971. Currently it operates a 40 inch telescope, a Centurion 18 inch telescope, and a Centurion 28 inch telescope. In the last few years a vast upgrading of the observing equipment and the operating systems has been conducted. The most frequent used observing systems for the 40” telescope are the PI-CCD Camera, and the eShel spectrograph. The operating systems include programs to set the telescope to objects, automated guider, automated observations, operation of the CCD and the instruments, remote observing, and various other tasks. The purpose of this manual is to describe the use of the above instruments on the 40” telescope as well as other instruments, programs and facilities at the Wise Observatory. The aim is to help the observer operate the instruments properly and avoid mistakes, so that the observing time will be fully and properly used. Since the Wise Observatory is in constant development this manual will hopefully be updated according to the developments.
