| | ===== How to add and schedule a new target? ===== |
| | |
| | There is a [[howto:mpec|MPEC howto]]. Entering target is very similar, just instead of MPEC one-line you put in target name (resolvable by SIMBAD): |
| | <code>rts2-newtarget 5004 M74 01:37:14+15:50:14</code> |

Second and third are RA and DEC of image centre expressed in degrees (RA 0..360.0, DEC -90..90). In bracked is error in RA and DEC, again in degrees. Assuming your image centre is at RA DEC 12:00:00 05:00:00 and the telescope was pointed to 12:01:00 05:01:00, the output string should be: | for the scanf.

| Selector (//rts2-selector//) is process responsible for selecting new observational targets. It sends targets IDs using **next** command. You can imitate selector behaviour by running //rts2-mon//, selecting **EXEC** component and typing: //next 1000// to select target with id 1000. The selection is executed on the following occasions: | Selector (//rts2-selector//) is process responsible for selecting new observational targets. It sends targets IDs using **next** command.
