Scientific paper
The article discusses the automated optical observatory at Calgary, Alberta, Canada at which three sophisticated optical instruments are operated unattended via telecommunications between the laboratory and observatory computers. These instruments are a single-etalon, 15-cm Fabry-Perot interferometer with six filter channels, a tilting filter with four filter channels, and a 1-m Ebert-Fastie spectrophotometer. The instrumental control computer is a LSI-11 microcomputer packaged with dual floppy disk drives. The observatory has been operating with good results since September 1981.
