The different areas available for guiding defined for NOTCam have been implemented and tested in the TCS. This means that we can now auto-guide in all observing modes without risking that the guide probe enters a forbidden area and thereby stopping the autoguiding. This is a fundamental improvement for the beam-switch observing mode. As long as the correct guide area is entered by the user, the telescope will be able to auto-guide both in ON and OFF positions. The NOTCam step-by-step guide has been updated accordingly.
