Abstract

The architecture, composition, specific features of operation, and technical characteristics of an automated control system of the Large Solar Vacuum Telescope of the Baikal astrophysical observatory are considered. The system is used for automation of both the observation process (automatic telescope guiding to the Sun, selection of a needed region in the solar disk image, guiding based on prescribed coordinates, and video monitoring of the basic subsystems of the telescope) and the auxiliary operations (evacuation, siderostat mirror unloading, and dome control).
