Telescope Initialisation ======================== After powering the telescope for the first time, upgrading the firmware or in case of a power loss, the telescope initialises itself when setting the power flag in automatic mode. #. The main PLC boots the TwinCAT firmware. #. If the PLC firmware is running, a blue signal is enabled on the PLC. #. The TwinSAFE is reset within 15 seconds, if no emergency stop is pressed. #. The power transformer is activated after one second, if the power switch on the main panel is in "ON" position. #. Available power is indicated by the power lamp. #. After TwinSAFE is ready the hydraulics system can be activated by pressing the "START" button. #. If "BRAKE CLEAR" is in "ON" position on the main panel, the hydraulic brakes will be opened. #. When the hydraulic brakes open, the azimuth axis and the elevation axis will perform a self calibration ("wake-and-shake"). #. When all axis are ready, they move to their predefined home position.
