6.9.1 Naming the AOR

It is recommended that proposers give unique names to their Astronomical Observation Requests (AORs; i.e., completed AOTs) to aid in identifying a particular AOR after proposal submission. When a new AOT window is opened, Spot assigns a default name derived from the instrument and observing mode, and a sequence number. This default label is shown at the top of the AOT entry window (see Figure 6.3). For example, ``IRSS-0000'' indicates an IRS Staring Mode observation with sequence number 0000 (the sequence number is incremented each time a new AOT is opened in a Spot session). Rename this AOT to ``IRS_cookbook-example1'' by selecting the default text in the ``Unique AOR Label'' box and typing the new name.
