    Notes
    1. All commands are run from a waimea login session.
    2. Arguments in parenthesis are optional.
    3. nodn and node are NIRSPEC keywords that can be modified from XNIRSPEC, EFSGui, or by typing "m node = value", for example (on waimea).

Name (command) Function
box9 Dither telescope E/N in a 9 image pattern determined by node and node. Files are mosaiced and the summed result displayed.
scam-acq n Take n SCAM exposures; take 1 exposure first manually.
snapi Take object and sky exposure with nod in between determined by node and nodn. Sky-subtracted result is displayed; object is positive.
spec-acq n Take n SPEC exposures; take 1 exposure first manually.
