We have designed, realized and tested a dedicated software tool defined so as to enable a wide non-specialist community to perform optimal adaptive optics observations with VLT instrument NAOS-CONICA. We first precise the requirements derived from NAOS complexity due to a large number of configurations, ESO/VLT operational policy including service mode observations and limited human interaction during observations, and astronomical observation requirements. We then present the developed software tool, so-called "Preparation Software", that couples a user-friendly interface that accepts observation conditions (including seeing, star magnitude etc...) and an elaborate simulator of adaptive optics based on the NAOS characteristics.
