NAME

focus.csh - sets the telescope focus position

SYNOPSIS

focus.csh

DESCRIPTION

focus.csh reads the temperature of the telescope frame and calculates the best position of the telescope focus by a linear fit using the constants FOCUSCOEF and FOCUSNOMINAL taken from ait.config. If the secondary position is very near the desired position, the secondary is not moved.

If the file focusnominal.dat is present in the current data directory the value of FOCUSNOMINAL is taken from it rather than ait.config.
