Reloading global pointing

You will need to reload the global pointing parameters when you finished, or if things go wrong. There are two ways to do this.

Firstly, CATAG will reload the global pointing parameters whenever CAOBS starts a scan with POINTING=GLOBAL. So just start such a scan, watch the CATAG output until it says it has reloaded the global solutions, or until the current offsets listed in the /CATAG page on CAMON go to zero, then stop the scan. Done!

Secondly, the global pointing parameters can be reloaded within CAOBS by executing the ppglobal command.
