NCS User's Guide

This section contains an extended guide about how to setup and execute observations. The examples are in the form of valid scripts in the command language. These example scripts are available to each observer who can edit them according to their needs. Comment out (or delete) those lines of the scripts that don't apply for your observations.

It starts with some general commands and the selection of a source catalog. Then two more subsections explain how to do ``Spectral Line Observations with Heterodyne Receivers'' and ``Continuum Observations with Bolometers''.

Remember that in command language scripts based on SIC:

! starts a comment; - indicates that a command is continued on the next line; PAUSE pauses the execution of the script, e.g., in order to allow the user to review the parameters set; and the case (upper or lower) generally doesn't matter.
