Abstract

HinOTORI is a China-Japan co-construction 50cm telescope with three-color (u', RC, and IC) simultaneous imager. The main purpose aims at identifying gravitational-wave electromagnetic counterpart and performing follow-up observation from ultraviolet to near-infrared band. The telescope locates at the Tibet plateau, China, with 5100 meters high altitude. The construction of the telescope has already finished, and now it is going on commissioning. In this paper we focus on the system and devices for remote control of multi-devices, including telescope, mount, dome, three cameras, Power Distribution Units (PDUs), sky monitor, and so on. We will also present system performance and site condition based on observations collected during commissioning.
