At the Shaanxi Observatory, regular observations with the prototype of the photoelectric astrolabe PAI have been carried out since 1973. Three photoelectric astrolabes of type Mark II (PAII) were mounted at the Shanghai, Beijing and Yunnan Observatories in 1974, 1976 and 1978, respectively. Details of the instruments and the results of the observation were published previously. (Photoelectric Astrolabe Developing Group 1973 and 1975, Second Group, First Divsion Shaanxi Observatory 1974, Astrolabe Data Analysis Group, First Division, Shaanxi Observatory 1975, Wang, L-j 1979, Astrolabe Group, First Division, Shanghai Observatory 1976, Wang, L-z and Luo 1979, Lu and Luo 1979). Time and latitude determinations by these sets of photoelectric astrolabes form a part in the international cooperation of BIH, IPMS as well as in the short campaign of project MERIT.
