Some WFPC2 programs have critical target positioning constraints (i.e. the target must be as close as possible to a specified aperture). ... This section provides some guidance in doing that, and indicates the level of residual error that can be expected. ... Thus, for the same coordinates and aperture, the pixel position of a target in an image taken before April 1994, could be nearly 3" different from its position in later images, due to aperture updates. ...

... Representing Coordinate Systems (Frames) While Mappings represent the relationships between coordinate systems, the coordinate systems themselves are represented by objects called Frames. ... A Plot's base Frame corresponds with the native coordinates of the underlying graphics system. Plotting operations are specified, using AST Plot methods, in physical coordinates which correspond with the Plot's current Frame (typically this might be a celestial coordinate system). ...

... Traditionally a local observer offsets the telescope using a handpaddle control, nudging the telescope in small steps. ... When using a rotating field of view, the user sees and can move the "boresight", the center of rotation of the field of view on the instrument. ... The object position is actually defined as the position of the sky at the boresight. ... The graphical offsetter implements an offset by changing the object offset and boresight position but not the sky orientation. ...
