 +==== Temporary HMI model ====
 +This is a temporary model applied in HMI during broadband tests with the Callisto system. ​
 +
 +Original model:
 +<​code>​
 +P1 -0.0335
 +P2 -0.4380
 +P3 0.0066
 +P4 -0.0026
 +P5 -0.0023
 +P6 0
 +P7 0.1538
 +P8 0.0214
 +P9 0.0026
 +</​code>​
 +
 +Additional offsets are 
 +<​code>​
 +Az = +2.7 arcmin = 0.045 deg
 +El = -4.0 arcmin = -0.0667 deg
 +</​code>​
 +
 +The DC terms in the pointing model are P2 (Az) and P7 (El), so new model is:
 +<​code>​
 +P1 -0.0335
 +P2 -0.393
 +P3 0.0066

 +This solution was put into HMI on 22 June 2016, ~23:45 UT (day 174). Parameters are:
 +
 +<​code>​
 +G1 -0.0105
 +G2 -0.0070

 +G8  0.0158
 +G9  0.0007
 +</​code>​
 +
 +Note that these were initially put in to HMI on June 20 but the sign for G4 was wrong. Not sure if that had a significant impact or not.
 +
 +Also updated HMI (on day 175, 00 UT) with revised station coordinates. Only sig change was to elevation which was 50m too low.
 +
 +<​code>​
 +Lat, Long, Elevation:
 +Before: -29.0465, 115.3467, 200.0
 +After: -29.0469, 115.3465, 250.48
