I have added formatting comments, rest are clarifications on what is already mentioned.
Primary extra feedback is--
- consider including graphics /images to show the hardware of the dome and their locations
- The Dome interlock system (DIS) needs a separate page or separate dedicated section at the very least
- Include the aperture shutter field of view in degrees.

| * Provide controlled ventilation and flushing of the dome interior with external ambient air during night operation to minimize the thermal effects on image quality. | ||
| * Facilitate maintenance of both the telescope and the Dome itself. | ||
| * Provide a controlled thermal environment during the day for preconditioning and testing. | ||
| * Be light tight during the daytime to enable testing and calibration of the telescope’s optical system. |

"light tight" -- > either light-tight or light-proof

| As a result of its wide field of view the Simonyi Survey Telescope is very susceptible to stray light and requires a significant amount of optical baffling. The Dome constitutes one of stray light baffles of the overall Simonyi Survey Telescope system. The Dome enclosure is a cylindrical carousel with an aperture "biparting" shutter and light/wind screen function together to provide the stray light protection around the telescope line of sight by actively following the observing light path. The 34 vent openings with light baffling louvers have the conflicting requirements of simultaneously providing ample airflow and substantial scattered light attenuation. The rotation of the Dome is completely independent from the motion of the telescope. Since the Dome operates at non-trivial velocities while the telescope is observing smooth operation is paramount. |

- what do you mean by "biparting" in this context?
- ".. conflicting requirements.." -- > perhaps contrasting requirements? sounds less negative.
- " The rotation of the Dome is completely independent from the motion of the telescope"-- >
- highlight also that despite this it will still be moving at speeds comparable to the Simonti Telescope because the wide field of view of the telescope does not give any allowance for the MTdome for delayed in-position and settle times.
- "... independent from.." ---> " ....independent of..."
- "Since the Dome operates at non-trivial velocities while the telescope is observing smooth operation is paramount." --- > the point/suggestion above makes it clearer. You can remove this sentence in that case.

it might also help to add a graphic with a view from the top to mark the position of the light baffles, vent openings, etc. (Check docushare) Alternatively, you can include the MTDome tracking screenshot from LOVE.

Hi Kshitija,
Thank you for your comments.
- The shape of the shutter. That text is taken directly from the technical dome documentation.
- Done.

| MTDome Main Mechanical Components | ||
| ================================= | ||
|
|
||
| * *Azimuth Drive and Bearing "Bogie" System (ADBS)*: This is the MTDome rotation mechanism. It has five motors spread evenly along the sides of the dome, the motors imprint velocity, acceleration, and jerk values to the MTDome and have power off software limits. The encoder system allows the determination of absolute position and it is able to determine position through the entire range of motion. It has a locking pin system for mechanical interruption of movement. |

- "Azimuth Drive and Bearing "Bogie" System (ADBS)" ---> please bold-face this instead of italics. We use italics for filenames/paths/links etc. Anything to be highlighted should be in bold.
- "It has five motors spread evenly along the sides of the dome, the motors imprint velocity, acceleration, and jerk values to the MTDome and have power off software limits. "--->" It has five motors spread evenly along the sides of the dome which imprint velocity, acceleration, and jerk values to the MTDome and have power off software limits."
- "....have power off software limits. "--- > unclear

The shutters have motorized locking mechanisms to restrain them in both the fully open and fully closed positions. The Aperture Shutter also has a locking pin system for mechanical interruption of movement. |

- give also the aperture in terms of sky size observed / aperture field of view (in degrees).

Aperture shutter in bold-face

- After digging around, I found there is no clarity about that value. Since the official value in the documentation is the current one, I will leave it as it is.
- Done.

Dear colleages,
The MTDome intro webpage is now live in obs-doc. The html version can be accessed here.
It is one page long, it gives an overall picture of the MTDome and offers a brief description of its main controllers. At the bottom, the webpage will include in the future the operational procedures as they begin to be created/migrated.
Your input and fact checking is highly valuable.
Best,
Karla Peña.
