| - | Now you can re-start the schedule. Just use the schedule name without any line number suffix. e.g. <code>schedule=a1308hb</code> This will start the next scan that occurs at least 5 min in the future. Check that the antenna goes to the next source in the schedule that satisfies this criterion. | + | Now you can re-start the schedule.

| Now make a note in the log that the schedule has been restarted following system checks. e.g. <code>"Schedule resumed following system checks</code> Also, if there were any problems during the checks or anything else of note, now is a good time to do it. For example, if the weather was too cloudy to verify the pointing: <code>"Pointing check not successful, probably due to bad weather</code> | Now make a note in the log that the schedule has been restarted following system checks. e.g. <code>"Schedule resumed following system checks</code> Also, if there were any problems during the checks or anything else of note, now is a good time to do it.
