-There was a shift observing the Crab-Nebula with half-moon at La Palma in December 2004. 
-The experience was that the nominal High-Voltages could be maintained and gave no 
-currents higher than 2\,$\mu$A. This means that moon-periods can be used for GRB-observations 
-without fundamental modifications except for full-moon periods. We want to stress that 
-these periods increase the chances to catch GRBs by 80\%, even if full-moon observations are excluded 
-\cite{NICOLA}. 
-It is therefore mandatory that the shifters keep the camera in fully operational conditions with high-voltages 
-already switched on from the beginning of a half-moon night until the end. 
-\par
-Because the background is higher with moon-light, we want to decrease then the maximun zenith angle from 
-$\theta^{max} = 70^\circ$ to $\theta^{max} = 65^\circ$.

 \subsection{Calibration }
 
-For ordinary source observation, the calibration is currently performed in the following way: 
-\begin{itemize}
-\item At the beginning of the source observation, a dedicated pedestal run following by a calibration run is 
-taken.
-\item During the data runs, interlaced calibration events are taken with a rate of 50\,Hz.
-\end{itemize}
-
-We would like to continue taking the interlaced calibration events when a GRB
-alert is launched, but leave out the pedestal and calibration run in order not to loose valueable time.
-
-\subsection{Determine the maximum zenith angle}
-
-We determine the maximum zenith angle by requiring that the overwhelming majority of 
-possible GRBs will yield an in principle observable spectrum.

 If some significance is seen, observe the same position next night to get some OFF-data.
