Bolometer's Observation:
The most important commands of the old system have been adapted to the NCS. Here is a typical starting sequence for the bolometer.
Setup the Bolometer
Pako> @wbolo ! Mambo2, central pixel 53, short onoff (@onf4)
Sources Catalog
Pako> catalog source pool ! Setup the project source catalog BR Pako> catalog source ihet ! Setup the pointing/calibration source catalog
Pointing sources: J1419+240 not 1419+240
Focus, pointing, Skydip
Pako> focus 1.1 BR Pako> start ! Start the focus BR Pako> set focus sfcz !Correct the focus with sfcz. Correction from MOPSIC (@f or @fsn for weak sources) BR 
Do a focus when atmospheric conditions are changing, typically after sunset/sunrise
Pako> p40 !Short pointing for weak sources+start BR Pako> p60 !Long pointing for strong sources+start BR Pako> set pointing azcor elcor !Correct the pointing with azcor and elcor. Correction from MOPSIC (@p or @psn for weak source)
Before each Onoff or map if they are longer than 30 mn.
Pako> bt !Skydip at the current azimuth+start
Every 2 hours in stable atmospheric condition.
Before an Onoff, be sure you are pointing with the right pixel (20).
Calibration
Calibration on a [primary|secondary] calibrator
Pako> @wbolo BR Pako> catalog ihet Calibrator_Name BR Pako> p60 BR Pako> set pointing azcor elcor BR Pako> @onf4 ! Shor Onoff integration (4 Subscans of 10 s)
You may do a short @onf4 after a normal pointing to monitor the pointing source flux.
Onoff and map
Pako>@onf 20 30 !Perform an on-off integration of 20 subscans of 60s with a wobbler throw of 30" BR Pako> @onf30 !Some project may have their own on-off macro
Don't try to make very long integration, you may loose the complete scan. In such case use a loop.
Pako> bmap laz lel elstep azv !Setup an OTF map of laz azimuth length, lel elevation length, elstep elevation step and azv azimuth speed (arcsec/s). BR Pako> start !Start the map after you checked it is correct (it gives you the total integration time).
The speed should not be larger that ~8 arcsec/sec
