+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.
