Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
This program concers H and K band observations with a field of view of
8"x8" of selected stars in embedded Galactic clusters. Each OB is composed by
an acquisition template and by several (up to seven) obs_GenericOffset templates.
Labels on the finding charts indicate the sequence of obs_GenericOffset templates.
The total number of OB is equal to 17, of which 7 make use of the AO mode.

Critical Observing Condition Constraints
Time-Critical Aspects
Special Execution Requirements
Particular CAUTION for the selection of the GUIDING STAR:
ACQUISITION: the brighest star in the field of view should be centered.
Please, try to complete H and K observations of the same cluster,
rather than to cover more clusters with only one band (Many Thanks :).

Is this a Pre-imaging run ?
Pre-imaging Requirements
Source(s) of Pre-imaging
Pre-imaging sources not listed above
Do all your OBs comply with the instrument-specific requirements listed
on the instrument-specific Phase 2 web page ?
If this is a pre-imaging run, did you select PRE-IMAGING for the Observing
Category for each Observing Template ?
Do all your finding charts comply with both the general and instrument-specific
Phase 2 Web Pages ?
If you submitted OBs for standard stars, did you specify the magnitude
and spectral type of all standard stars in the OBs ?
Have you included OBs for any calibrations that you need but which are
not part of the Calibration Plan ?
If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris
files to your OBs?
If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first, did you make
use of the User Priority field in the OBs ?
If this is a run that requires coordinated observations with other facilities,
did you give proper instructions in the Time-Critical Aspects Section ?
Did you indicate the magnitude of the brightest object in the field in
each SINFONI OB?
If you are using the AO: Did you indicate for every OB the magnitude
of the guide star, and its distance to the target (if any)?
If you submitted OBs for standard stars, did you use the provided StandardStar
templates?
If you are using a specific offset pattern or position angle: did you
check carefully the definition in the manual?
Did you make really sure that none of your OBs ever saturates the detector?
If you are using the AO: did you enter the correct Strehl Ratio (on-axis,
K-band) AND the seeing value in the constraint set?
