Paper Abstract
The Keck I and II telescopes have been operational respectively since 1990 and 1996. Operational improvements are
sought to decrease the settling time in response to short moves. The structural response of the open loop system has been
re-identified and the mount control design has been re-examined. Changes to the mount control compensators and
command shaping architecture have been proposed in order to achieve improved response. Results from these studies are
presented, both theoretical and experimental.
