Greater freedom of movement of the position of the fibre inputs must be implemented to allow both fibres to be aligned optimally with the optics. A related problem is the position of the Shutter unit which was found to be in contact with the monting o the optics. A greater range of positioning for this unit must alos be implemented (simply re-machine holes in mounting bracket into slots...).

In total seven odometers are required: Source 1 = LAMP1 = ThArNe = one bulb = 1 odometer Source 2 = LAMP2 = Hal1 + Hal2 = two bulbs = 2 odometers Source 3 = LAMP3 = ThAr + Ne = two bulbs = 2 odometers Source 4 = LAMP4 = Hal + Dueterium = two bulbs = 2 odometers Though I am not certain that the Halogen and Deuterium bulbs of LAMP4 can be powered independantly... needs to be investigated. 8/10/2004 5:09:40 PM gandreon Eectronic part completed. Reassigned to Optics. 8/12/2004 6:12:07 AM jpritcha There seems to be a problem which I would guess is hardware rather than software. I have re-configured the ICS according to the information provided by JAl for the input and output bits (23 & 24 respectively -- see below) but it does not work properly in that I can turn the lamp ON from the ICS control panel, but I can not turn the lamp OFF from the control panel. In fact the only way I could turn it off was to power cycle the LCU, even a reset/reboot without power cycle did not turn it off!

This requires the creation of just two ICS database points, one for the FEROS Focus Offset without ADC and the 2nd the the FEROS Focus Offset WITH ADC. 2) MORE SOPHISTICATED: The TCS controls setting the focus, according to values set in TCS database points which could be set by either FEROS or WFI. I think this option is the more desirable one in the long term. The main advantage being that the telescope focus equation would then be centralised rather than being calculated independantly by each instrument. This implementation would require a few database points and a server to control the focus, which would allow for either continuous adjustment of the focus to the current best value (as is currently done for FEROS) or to be set once at the beginning of each observation (as is currently done for WFI). For either solution 1) is required, 2) is then negotiable... Action Log : 8/10/2004 5:11:08 PM gandreon Part 1 considered as action point. Part 2 could be a small project.

Action : The script should startup all cameras at once, and making sure the software is shutdown before. This is to avoid a bug of the CCD SW. See mail from PSI. Action Log : 8/31/2004 9:53:29 PM psinclai Request by PSI: create a shell script "wfinsStartCCDs that combines "wfinsStopTCCDS", "wfinsStopSCCDS", "wfinsStartSCCDS" and "wfinsStartTCCDS" into one single script to be used on normal operations by the TIOs when starting up WFI. In the same way, a shell script "wfinsStopCCDs" that combines "wfinsStopTCCDS" and "wfinsStopSCCDS" is also required. Therefore, the startup for WFI shall be done by: wfinsStartCCDs (for CCDs) wfinsStartUp (for ICS and OS) and shutdown by: wfinsShutDown wfinsStopCCDs The reason for this change is because the camera startup script defined in the Fiera environment, when it is starting a camera but that camera is already running, it will kill the processes first, but in the operation it will kill also the processes of the other camera. So, we have to avoid the possibility of starting a camera that is already running. So, a stop before start is required until Garching fixes this bug (already communicated). 9/1/2004 5:34:19 PM ikastine Installed at w2p2ins during APR2004 upgrade.

Action : The original users requirements and implementation plan of the network at RITZ considered a separate subnet for "visitors" and another one for "general purpose" use, in addition to the telescope subnets. The cabling is ready, but this was never implemented. Pls complete this implementation, so that, for instance, critical functions don't have to share subnet with visitor's laptop.
