The data appears in /data/sgs/%YYMMDD%.txt and is the comma seperated decimal values for each of the items appearing in the SGS Server Ouput indicator. Changes should be completely transparent to the observer. However if for some reason this does negitively effect observing, the running vi can be killed and the complied executable run instead. The 15 second cadiance was selected to match the Tci/ip output. It would be very trival to increace the cadiance, but without changing the tcp/ip cadiance it will be a bit of work to make this loop go faster. ___end___ KCOR COMMENT BY berkey: Thu Oct 24 01:38:34 GMT 2013 I added some new graphs of kcor "proformance" to the iiwi display. They are displayed via a simple webpage that lives on the desktop of iwii called k-cor.html which will likely need to be re-launch every day or so when either firefox crashes or iwii reboots. These 3 graphs are generated via a cron job that runs on ulua and works on the current days k-cor data files. Until k-cor is run and starts generating fits files yesterday's graphs will be displayed. Once the script finds new data it will begin generating "todays" plots. The first plot is a running log of the foreoptics + shutter state. For a given mechanim if there is a dot between 0 and .3(ish) the mechisims is out of the beam. If there is a dot between 1.0 and 1.2 the mechanism is in the beam. For the second plot "Science camera mean w/SGSDIM" You can see the mean value from each of the 8 camera images while the instrument is in science mode as well as a plot of the SGSSUM. The y-axis of the Camera's is fixed so if things are out of range it probally means something is bad. The SGSDIM value has a floating y-axis, which may or not be ok. The third plot is of the mean value for each of the 8 camera images during the calibrations. Here the y-axis if fixed to what seems like good calibration values. The x value for each point is just corresponds the order of the images. These plots are rapidly evoloving, so if you find them useful please let me know what works what doesn't what would be more interesting to look at. One thing I found rather interesting watching the Science camera mean today was that while occulting of k-cor around 11:15 wasn't very obvious in the k-cor gui (I missed it) it seemed very obvious in the graph (large increase of light across the whole detector). ___end___ Thu Oct 24 02:00:08 GMT 2013: PSPT Start Patrol Thu Oct 24 02:08:08 GMT 2013: PSPT Abort Patrol Thu Oct 24 02:08:11 GMT 2013: PSPT Abort Patrol
