 system.
 
+The process is actually two steps.   Select the location to move the probes and then tell pfip to move the probes.
+
 One can move the probes in this X and Y coordinate system:   
 
-Command:  {{{ syscmd -v -P 'Guider1_set_position( x_ang=0.16, y_ang=0.00) ' }}}
+Command:  {{{ syscmd -v -T 'Guider1_set_position( x_ang=XVALUE, y_ang=YVALUE) ' }}}  where XVALUE and YVALUE are in degrees
+          {{{ syscmd -v -T 'pfip_move_probes()' }}} 
 
-Examples: {{{          syscmd -T -v 'Guider1_set_position( x_ang=0.16, y_ang=0.00) ' }}}
-       {{{  syscmd -T -v 'Guider2_set_position( x_ang=-0.16, y_ang=0.00) ' }}}
-     {{{    syscmd -T -v 'WFS1_set_position( x_ang=0.00, y_ang=0.16) ' }}}
-    {{{     syscmd -T -v 'WFS2_set_position( x_ang=0.00, y_ang=-0.16) ' }}}
+Examples: 
+     {{{  syscmd -T -v 'Guider1_set_position( x_ang=0.16, y_ang=0.00) ' }}}
+     {{{  syscmd -T -v 'Guider2_set_position( x_ang=-0.16, y_ang=0.00) ' }}}
+     {{{  syscmd -T -v 'WFS1_set_position( x_ang=0.00, y_ang=0.16) ' }}}
+     {{{  syscmd -T -v 'WFS2_set_position( x_ang=0.00, y_ang=-0.16) ' }}}
+     {{{ syscmd -v -T 'pfip_move_probes()' }}} 
+
+The probes can be placed with RA and DEC commands as well.
+
+Command:  {{{ syscmd -v -P 'Guider1_set_position( ra=RAVALUE, dec=DECVALUE, equinox=yearVALUE )' }}}   where RAVALUE are in decimal hours, DECVALUE are in decimal degrees and yearVALUE is the year and the default equinox is 2000.0 and could be excluded.    The positions are always referenced to what object the tracker was pointed at, ie. what came
+from htopx3.    Thus in theory the target needs to be at the reference location, usually the IHMP position.
+
+Examples:
+     {{{  syscmd -T -v 'Guider1_set_position( ra=12.0403092, dec=-5.0593855, equinox=2000.0) ' }}}
+     {{{  syscmd -T -v 'Guider1_set_position( ra=12.0403092, dec=-5.0593855 ) ' }}}
+     {{{ syscmd -v -T 'pfip_move_probes()' }}} 
+

+Below are some images that show the range of the guider positions.   In these plots +X is to the right and +Y is up.
