  • Be sure to shut down the observing software as specified in the instrument manual, leaving running items like lois and anything else called out in the manuals.  Clean up the observing computer desktop (dct-obs1 / dct-obs2) to how you found it.
  • Fill out the LDT Feedback form (on the observing computer desktop).  This form provides information to the staff about the quality of the night and any issues that need to be followed up upon.
  • Take your data with you.  You may transfer over the internet, via portable external hard drive, etc.  The observer is responsible for getting their data from the LDT to their home institution and maintaining proper backup copies for their use.  Please note: Due to the remote location of LDT, bandwidth is limited.  Only transfer files over the internet during your assigned observing time or between local sunrise and 11a and 3p MST.  Do not transfer data during another observer's time, as this causes undue lag for the VNC connections.
