Technology: [ Rigel Telescope | Iowa Robotic Telescope | Control Software | Rigel Telescope Tests | Rigel May 2002 Tests ] |
Both
the IRT and Rigel telescopes utilize the Talon software suite for
Observatory scheduling, telescope control and image analysis tasks.
Talon is an
integrated suite of Linux-based software which includes telescope
scheduling algorithms, observatory instrument control, and image analysis.
It is written primarily in classic ?C?, with some components in Perl and csh script. Most
user-level applications in have a Motif-style GUI interface. Talon is
based on OCAAS, a software suite developed by software engineer Elwood
Downey (Clear Sky
Institute) for use at the
The telescope schedule accepts
schedule requests from the web-based observing schedule request interface
and sorts them in an optimal manner based on request time and priority
level. The user interface is shown below. Talon's Telescope
Scheduler
The program Xobservatory provides a real-time display and control
of the observatory. The telescope can be operated in one of two modes:
real-time or batch (remote scheduling). In real-time mode, the observer
may specify the source to be observed by catalog name or coordinates.
There are also tools for auto-focussing,
re-homing all axes, and control of filer wheel. Xobservatory also display time and weather
information, current telescope position, and current status of filter
wheel, roof, focus position, and camera. The user interface is shown
below. Xobservatory
Camera is a powerful FITS image analysis program that
also provides real-time CCD camera control. It has a large number of
analysis tools, including absolute and differential photometry, a WCS
(world coordinate system) solver, a image ?movie?
tool, in addition to the usual analysis tools, such as magnifying lens,
histogram adjuster, image arithmetic, and FITS header editor. The user
interface is shown below with several tools illustrated.. Camera: Image Analysis and Camera
