-The simple answer is to use the blue beacon after having carefully checked the alignment. This assumes that the focus, as determined by the lab WFS, is correct. This focus includes both the OPLE and the BRT alignments, but since we assume that anyway while observing it's probably OK. Other than that follow the same procedure Matt describes for the [[:chara:files:chara_telao_calibration_source_6.pdf|scope AO system]].+The simple answer is to use the blue beacon after having carefully checked the alignment.
