Preparing telescope systems to take dome flats

Prepare everything to move telescope and dome

1. Turn HBS on
2. Raise M1
3. Put SCS in follow mode
4. Cass rotator on
5. Locking pins out
6. Dome in computer mode
7. Init dome
8. Set the Deployable Baffles to RETRACTED and the periscope to OPEN
9. Be sure that the mirror cover and instrument cover are open
10. Move telescope, CRCS and dome to:
11. Telescope at Az= 265deg, Elev=+45 
12. Rotator= 180deg
13. Dome Az at 185deg.
14. Disassert the Az/El and CassRot drives - this breaks the telescope in place

Once the flats are done

1. Take the telescope back to Zenith
2. Turn HBS off
3. Park M1
4. Remove SCS from follow mode
5. Locking pins in
6. Close mirror and instrument covers
