Title of Example Procedure

Note

This is a procedure template file that is associated with a template directory structure. This note be deleted when the section is properly populated.

Overview

This section should give a top level description of what this procedure is for and when it should be performed.

Prerequisites

This section should list the prerequisites (e.g. required conditions) to perform the procedure. If multiple sentences/conditions are required this should be presented in bullet form.

  • This is an example bullet (e.g. Telescope azimuth must be at 0 degrees)

    • This is a sub-bullet (e.g. Telescope elevation position is not important)

Post-Condition

This section describes the state of the system after performing the procedure. If multiple sentences/conditions are required this should be presented in bullet form.

  • This procedure leaves the telescope with the E-stop activated.

    • Add Extra-guidance when required/useful. (e.g. De-activate the E-stop to re-activate the system, see Procedure XYZ)

Procedure Steps

This paragraph describes for the format of the procedure. This is optional as the usefulness depends upon the complexity of the procedure.

In the case of a very straightforward procedure, a simple numbered list could be used, like as follows:

  1. This is Step in a numbered list
  2. This is step two.

Separate into Subsections

In the case of more complicated procedures, more sophisticated methodologies may be appropriate, such as using multiple section headings, then numbered lists under each heading.
