TURPOL close-down in the morning

As soon as morning twilight starts, go to the dome and close the dark slide by pulling it out. NB! Important!
Do not switch the polarimeter off.
In the control room, turn both high voltage supplies to zero.
Do not switch them off!
Close the data file and exit from the PP program.
The DOS session has a number of means of copying the files out of the computer. These are the commands:
- FTP (regular ftp client)
- SFTPDOS user@remote-host, again, as with normal sftp
- SCP2DOS filename user@remote-host:path as with normal scp
So, for example, if you'd like to copy the files to florence, then you can type
C:\SOMEDIR> SFTPDOS guest@florence

NOTE: The MS-DOS network drivers are a bit fragile and they may fail after a couple of uses. If you have problems connecting to other computers, just reboot the machine and try again.
Close the lid of the STV laptop and switch of the TV monitor.
Close down the telescope according to the Closing Down Procedure in the Observer's Cookbook which can also be found in the Cookbook folder in the Control Room.
