| Popis: | We review the methods of determining the alignment errors of the primary mirror and flat reflector elements of the RATAN-600 radio telescope using a modern coordinate measuring system based on the Leica absolute tracker AT402. We computed the kinematic corrections for the elevation drives. The accuracy of the measurement method was estimated. The antenna readout with the introduced kinematic corrections was tested. |
