Telescope Control System Paul J. Lotz
Scope 2
TCS components 3
Auxiliary Telescope, External Environment Monitor components 4
ILC and mirror supports Complete – ILCLabVIEW (ILC = “Inner Loop Controller”) Generally exercise ILC communication, I/O – M2AADT (M2 Axial Actuator Durability Tester) – AITDT (Analog Input Thermal Drift Tester) In progress – FAMT (Force Actuator Model Tester) Future – Implement production protocol (customized Modbus) – Calibration Of standard signal generator Of ILCs – Initialization of encoders 5
Work with vendors See previous presentation on this topic. 6
Additional efforts Hardware – Selected cRIOs (9038—8-slot; 9033—4-slot) Auxiliary telescope TCS – Scheduler for it? AOCS – AOS requirements document in progress (see Sandrine Thomas presentation) Auxiliary – Work by Patrick Ingraham on ICDs (will be LSE-139) 7
Near term plan ILC work—Fall 2015 Component ICDs-- SAL-LabVIEW interface—End of 2015 – Already Generate types from SAL definitions Proof of concept for generating messaging methods Higher fidelity TCS simulator—June 2016 – Basic TCS kernel simulator now in SAL SDK Hire software engineer—Fall
