HinOTORI is a China-Japan co-construction 50cm telescope with three-color (u', RC, and IC) simultaneous imager. The main purpose aims at identifying gravitational-wave electromagnetic counterpart and performing follow-up observation from ultraviolet to near-infrared band. The telescope locates at the Tibet plateau, China, with 5100 meters high altitude. The construction of the telescope has already finished, and now it is going on commissioning. In this paper we focus on the system and devices for remote control of multi-devices, including telescope, mount, dome, three cameras, Power Distribution Units (PDUs), sky monitor, and so on. We will also present system performance and site condition based on observations collected during commissioning.
HinOTORI is a 50cm telescope which is co-constructed and shared by China and Japan. It can image in u’, Rc and Ic bands simultaneously, its main scientific observation targets are gravitational waves (GWs) optical counterparts (OTs). The installation of the telescope has been finished, and the engineering first light observation was carried out in May 2018. This paper will give an overall introduction and parameters of the telescope and then concentrate on a focusing method, which aims at obtaining the best focus position from the fitting equation. The reason of the best position shifting is also discussed.
