Remote observing

This observing mode where the remote observer actually controls the telescope very much like on Pico Veleta, is available from the IRAM offices in Granada and Grenoble, as well as from the remote station at the MPIfR in Bonn and from OAN in Madrid. The remote station in Paris may also come on line soon. If you are planning to use remote observing, please contact the Astronomer on Duty (for Granada) ,Clemens Thum for Grenoble, or Dirk Muders, muders@mpifr-bonn.mpg.de for Bonn, or J.F. Desmurs for Madrid well in advance of your observing run. As a safeguard, please email observing instructions and macros to the AoD and/or operator. A dedicated phone line to the control desk for voice mail is available for remote observers: +34 958 482009.
