Continuum observation testing†

• Summary of the Qlookc issue (no plotting) by Horigome-san [fjaste 00093]
  • If time has passed 1 hour without CONT observations after taking the control priority, the firewall of NAOJ could cut Qlookc connections between the ASTE site and a local site due to no network traffic.
  • Qlookc cannot get any data from the ASTE site under such the disconnected situation, and nothing is plotted.
  • Its recovery way is to restart qlookc relevant processes on the ASTE site and a local site. (Its actual way needs to be confirmed.)
  • It is necessary to push the START button on Qlookc before starting a new observation.
• Successful Qlookc plots
  • I confirmed Qlookc plots by starting a new observation just after taking the priority and pushing the START button on Qlookc.
• Continuum observation tables
  • The following observation tables succeeded in running.

    Directory: aste16/sbrf16
    Observation tables:
      str05d3.start: raster mapping
      stx5d3.start:  cross scan
      stsbd3z.start: on-source tracking for z-axis measurements
      stsbd3a.start, stsbd3b.start, stsbd3h.start:
        cross scan for xy-axis measurements

Optical telescope testing†

• Global optical pointing
  • iOPT_r17shm tests
    • LST00h00m.start successfully ran and iOPT_r17shm output 201608xx.tab.
    • Quick data reduction shows reasonable results.
