10.1. Introduction

The appropriate Herschel Instrument Manual is your primary reference for information about using the Herschel instruments and selecting appropriate AOT parameters. We provide some additional information for the individual AOTs in the following chapters.

Note that target entry and naming conventions have communality, whatever instrument you choose to use. These are described briefly here.

	Note
Please note that in-flight information is leading to some occasionally very extensive changes in observing modes. A very detailed update of the instrument-specific chapters is in preparation by the HSC Instrument and Calibration Scientist Team. When in doubt, please raise a ticket in Helpdesk with the instrument team for the most up-to-date information, as this may be subject to frequent updates as new tests are carried out.
