User interface for new OCS-


your ideas wanted!


Users of Gen2 are

observers ...


YOU!


You will use Gen2

OCS.

Gen2 の UI の提案を寺田か友野まで

2009-01-16 Subaru Users' Meeting 12

Ideas wanted!

about user interface of Gen2 Tentative deadline: late May, 2009

– After international conference in Kyoto Send your comments or proposals to

– Tomono <tomono at subaru.naoj.org>, or– Terada <terada at subaru.naoj.org>


Agenda

Scope of user interface for Gen2 Requirements to user interface for Gen2 A couple of examples

– to stimulate your proposals!

Values of software

1. Communication

2. Simplicity

3. Flexibility

Preparing


Preparing, users want to

Plan sequences Refer manuals


Preparing with SOSS

Plan sequences– Communication of ope files

Refer manuals


Preparing with Gen2

Plan sequences– Scripting language?– GUI?– Debug and rehearse

• before coming to Hawaii!

Refer manuals


Looking for better way to

Preparing– Plan sequences

• Debug and rehearse

Observing– Execute and monitor sequences

• Termination, pause, modification, repetition, ...• Dithering, iteration, ...

– Watch status of instrument(s)– Review data obtained


Examples!

To stimulate YOUR proposals! Preparation and observation tools to edit

and execute sequence– With a scripting language, i.e., Python, or– Using graphical user interfaces


Observation sequence on Python

from subaru import *from dither import *

pts=[(0,0), (1,1), (1,-1), (-1,-1), (-1,1)]

run(Dither(integ_time=10, ditherlist=pts))



class Dither(IRCS, AbstractDither):def __init__(self, integ_time=0.0, **kwdargs):

super(Dither, self).__init__(integ_time=integ_time, **kwdargs)

def slew(self, ra, dec):self.run(Sequence([

ShowUser(level=1, msg="Slewing to ra=%f dec=%f" % (ra, dec)),Concurrent([

Telescope.Offset_Radec(ra, dec),IRCS.YourDesiredSetup(),Etc()

]),ShowUser(level=2, msg="Done slewing."),

]))

def at_point(self, ra, dec):self.run(Sequence([

ShowUser(level=1, msg="Exposing at ra=%f dec=%f" % (ra, dec)),Sequence([IRCS.Expose(self.params.integ_time), Etc() ]),ShowUser(level=2, msg="Done exposing."),

]))



class AbstractDither(g2Task.g2Task):def __init__(self, ra=0.0, dec=0.0, dra=1.0, ddec=1.0, ditherlist=[], **kwdargs):

super(AbstractDither, self).__init__(ra=ra, dec=dec, dra=dra, ddec=ddec, ditherlist=ditherlist,

**kwdargs)

def at_point(self, ra, dec):raise g2TaskError("Please subclass this method with desired behavior!")

def slew(self, ra, dec):raise g2TaskError("Please subclass this method with desired behavior!")

def execute(self):for i, j in self.params.ditherlist:

ra= self.params.ra+ (i * self.params.dra)dec = self.params.dec + (j * self.params.ddec)self.slew(ra, dec)self.at_point(ra, dec)


Planning and executing on GUI

Example from Gemini Observing Tool A prototype from Subaru OCS team


Monitoring executions

Monitor actual or preparation observation Sorry, no example yet

– Dynamic call graphs with history of completed methods?


Looking for ideas to

Prepare– Plan sequences

Observe– Execute and monitor

sequences– Watch status of

instrument– Review data obtained

Tentative deadline: late May, 2009– After international

conference in Kyoto? Discuss here, and Send comments to

Tomono or Terada
