This page defines the different types of operational constraints due to weather.

For a full study of wind on image quality, refer to SIT-Com `TN-126`_.

- If the observer has control to choose targets, observe out of the wind.
Report that the scheduler configuration needs to be changed, or change the scheduler program you are running.

Skip over any observing blocks that point the telescope directly into, or 90 degrees offset from, the dominant direction of the wind.
- Close the vent gate(s) at winds over 12 m/s.


.. note::
90 degree rule:
Due to the curved dome, pointing at targets 180 degrees offset from the dominant wind direction creates a wind eddy under the lip of the dome, which can create wind shake on the upper truss of AuxTel.
To compensate for this, it is recommended to look for targets that have a 90-degree offset from the dominant wind direction.
Opposite rule:
The optimum place to point when there are winds over 8 m/s is 180 degrees offset from the dominant wind direction.

Wind speeds greater than 12 m/s (measured over the last 10 data points):
- Observers should close once wind gusts have become greater than 12 m/s.

Wind speeds greater than 15 m/s (measured over the last 10 data points):
- Observers should close once wind gusts have become greater than 15 m/s.
If mount jitter is occurring frequently in all parts of the sky, close the dome.
Before deciding to open again, ensure that sustained winds have dropped below the closure limits for more than 15 minutes.
Reset the timer if the wind jumps over 12 m/s again.
Reset the timer if the wind jumps over 15 m/s again.

.. warning::
Dome drop-down shutter:
The AuxTel dome shutter has a drop-down shutter that opens like a flap, causing it to extend further past the dome structure.
It is opened when observing targets below 25-30 degrees elevation.
It is opened when observing targets below 25 degrees elevation.
The drop-down shutter is susceptible to wind gusts, and should be closed if gusts reach over 8 m/s.

The quantity that is more important than relative humidity is the **dew point temperature** and the **dew point difference**.
The dew point temperature is the ambient air temperature at which relative humidity will reach 100% -
the air is completely saturated with water vapor.
You can calculate the **dew point temperature** using this `online tool`_.
The dew point difference is the difference between the dew point temperature and the coldest structure in the telescope dome.

Example:
Dew point temperature = 8 degrees C.

AuxTel M1 temperature = 11 degrees C.

Glycol lines = 4 degrees C.
Truss temperature = 4 degrees C.

**Dew point difference = 4 degrees C.**
