This section describes the basic hand control procedures needed to
operate the CPC. These procedures are grouped into three categories:
Alignment, Setup and Utilities. The alignment section deals with the
initial telescope alignment as well as nding objects in the sky; the setup
section discusses changing parameters such as tracking mode, tracking
rate and setting lter and slew limits; nally, the last section reviews all
of the utilities functions such as PEC, polar alignment and hibernating
the telescope.
