Adding equipment
================

After adding a system to the database, we need to add at least one telescope and one laser before you add a channel. 

Telescope
---------

To add a new telescope, click on the **HOI telescopes** in the *System settings* panel.
This will take you to a page with a list of all availabe telescopes that are connected with your station. 
This list should be empty if this is the first time you add a telescope. 

To add a new telescope to the database click on **Add HOI telescope** at the top right of the screen.
This will take you to a new page were you can fill in the needed information. Once again, the fields in **bold**
are mandatory and you will need to fill them before you can save you new telescope. 


The fields you need to add are:

Type
   The telescope type
   
Diameter
   The diameter of the primary mirror in mm

Focal length
   The equivalent focal length of the telescope in mm
   
Full overlap height
   The height where the full overlap is achieved.

When you are done, press the **save** button at the bottom right of the page. If no errors are present, you will return to 
the telescope list page. Your new telescope should appear in the list.


Laser
-----

To add a new laser, click on the **HOI Laser** in the *System settings* panel.
This will take you to a page with a list of all availabe lasers that are connected with your station. 
This list should be empty if this is the first time you add a laser. 

To add a new telescope to the database click on **Add HOI laser** at the top right of the screen.
This will take you to a new page were you can fill in the needed information. The fields in **bold**
are mandatory and you will need to fill them before you can save you new telescope.

The fields you need to add are:

Manufacturer
   The manufacturer of the telescope
   
Model
   The model of the telescope
   
Repetition rate
   The repetition rate in Hz
   
Type
   The type of the laser (ex. Nd:YAG)

When you are done, press the **save** button at the bottom right of the page. If no errors are present,  you will return to 
the laser list page. The new laser you added should be present there.
