  1. What is a template ? For the observer - a form to interact with the instrument. For the programmer - two mandatory files : *.tsf : description of input parameters *.seq : description of operations. + two optional files *.obd : to test the template (bypassing P2PP). *.ref : initial instrument setup

  2. Template Modules • Templates files of an instrument are archived in a set of 4 cmm modules : xxoseq : observing template sequencer files xxotsf ; observing template signature files xxmseq : technical template sequencer files xxmtsf : technical template signature files • examples: EFOSC: efoseq efotsf efmseq efmtsf FEROS: feoseq feotsf femseq femtsf

  3. Naming Rules: • <INST>_<mode>_<type>[_<description>].seq • INST = instrument name. • mode = name of instrument mode. • type = acq , obs , cal , tec • description = purpose of the template • examples: EFOSC_img_acq_MoveToPixel.seq FEROS_ech_cal_wave.seq

  16. Libraries Contain procedures common to: • all VLT templates: tpl • several templates of the same instrument(namely SOFI): istut

  17. tpl tpl is a the general official VLT template library. It allows to interact with the following subsystems : OS Observation Software DCS Detector Control Software ACE ACE CCD controller FIERA FIERA CCD controller IRACE Infrared Acquisition Control Electronics ICS Instrument Control Software TCS Telescope Control Software UIF User InterFace DR Date Reduction

  18. Library module(s) • istut is the library module for sotplsrc/istutUtils.tcl :all sooseq somseq procedures

  19.

  20. ConfigEnvInstall a library thru BOB

  21. tcl/tk programming Templates are programmed in a VLT version of Tcl/Tk language which can be tested under seqWish (while BOB can only run full templates). • set set z 211Makes the content of variable z equal to 211set y $zCopies the content of variable z into variable yset a abcd1234Makes the content of a equal to string “abcd1234”set a “abcd1234”ditto

  22. tcl/tk programming • Variables • A tcl variable is declared implicitly by a set like command (set, scan, get etc.. ). • A tcl variable is always a character string. • Therefore it has no type. • If it contains only digits and at most one decimal point, it can be used as operand in an arithmetical expression. • Arrays • Any variable of which name has the structure aaa(bbb) belongs to array aaa. • It can then be processed by any of the array commands. • From inside procedures it must be addressed thru the upvar command.

  23. tcl/tk programming • expr expr { arg1 op1 arg 2 .. }Calculates the expresion arg1 op1 arg 2 .. set tanx [expr {sin($x) / cos($x)}] • string set index [ string first Ritz $lasilla ]set index value to the position of first character of first match of “Ritz” in $lasilla variable (first character of a string has index 0set charnum [ string length $chain ]returns length of string contained in variable $chain into variable charnum

  24. tcl/tk programming Control flow • if { $insmode == “RILD“ } { puts “Red Imaging and Low Dispersion”} • set i 1 ; set n 6 ; set fact 1while { $i <= $n } { set fact [ expr { $fact * $i } ] ; incr i } • for { set i 1 } { $i <= $n } { incr i } { ....}

  25. tcl/tk programming Control flow • foreach seqWish 101 > set z {Harps Efosc Timmi2 Ces } seqWish 102 >foreach j $z { puts "$j is a 3.6 tel. instrument" } Harps is a 3.6 tel. instrument Efosc is a 3.6 tel. instrument Timmi2 is a 3.6 tel. instrument Ces is a 3.6 tel. instrument seqWish 103 >

  26. tcl/tk programming procedures • proc proc fact { x } { if { $x <= 1 } { return 1 } expr $x * [ fact [ expr $x - 1 ] ] } >fact 4=>24>fact 0=>1

  27. tcl/tk programming procedures • global allows to access a variable from inside a procedure without passing it as a parameter. In particular it allows to modify it while this is not possible with a normal input parameter. proc subprog { x } { global y z set z [ expr { $y + $x }] }

  28. tcl/tk programming procedures • upvar One cannot pass an array as parameter to a procedure because tcl procedures accept parameters by value and not by reference: upvar works around this impossibility. In particular as all OB parameters are passed by BOB as 4 tcl array names, SEQ TEL INS DET, all templates begin as follows : proc RILD_spec_cal_Arcs { parArrays obsInfo } { . . . foreach parArray $parArrays { upvar $parArray $parArray } . . .

  29. tcl/tk programming File processing Example: copy content of file input.txt into new file output.txt until first empty line: set fileIdin [ open input.txt r ] set fileIdout [ open output.txt w ] set line “dummy” while { [ string length $line ] > 0 } { gets $fileIdin line puts $fileIdout $line} close $fileIdin close $fileIdout

  30. tcl/tk programming • exec : executes a UNIX/LINUX command: exec rm output.txt set directory [ exec ls -1 ] • catch : avoids tcl script/template to abort in case of error: seqWish 100 > set a b b seqWish 101 > expr $a + 5 syntax error in expression "b + 5“ seqWish 102 > set error [catch {expr{$a + 5}} msg] 1 seqWish 103 > puts $msg syntax error in expression "b + 5“ seqWish 104 >

  31. outside systems • BOSS = interface between BOB and TCS/ICS/DCS) : • TIF= Telescope Interface • PCO= protocol converter ( interface to MIDAS)

  32. interaction with outside systems • BOSS(BOSS ( ex OS ) = interface between BOB and TCS/ICS/DCS) : sendCmd <time out> “<BOSS command>“ BOSS main commands are : • SETUP prepare telescope, instrument and or detector for exposure • START start the exposure prepared by the previous setup commands • END close the setup sequence without performing a detector exposure. • WAIT wait for the end of the current exposure.

  33. Syntax of BOSS commands • SETUP prepares telescope, instrument and or detector for next exposure; set ID [sendCmd timeOut "SETUP -expoId 0 –function \ INS.MODE RILD"] sendCmd $timeOut "SETUP -expoId $ID -function \ TEL.TARG.DELTA $TEL(TARG.DELTA) \ TEL.TARG.ALPHA $TEL(TARG.ALPHA) “ To prepare a new exposure, first setup must get the $ID expoId number to refer to it in the next commands to BOSS :this is carried out setting the value after -expoId to 0 : afterwards it must be set to $ID until the end of the exposure ( WAIT –expoId $ID ).

  34. Syntax of BOSS commands SETUP parameters are -expoId <$variable> variable = exposure reference number while setup is active. -function <keyword1> <value1> [[<keyword2> <value2>] ....]keywords are telescope/instrument/detector related and defined in Dictionaries. -file <Setupfile.ref> <Setupfile.ref> is a file containing keywords and values alike -function parameters or obd files.

  35. Syntax of BOSS commands • START starts the exposure prepared by the previous setup commandssendCmd $gvar(libtplStartTimeOut) "START -expoId $ID" • END closes the setup sequence without performing a detector exposure.sendCmd $gvar(libtplStartTimeOut) "END -expoId $ID" • WAIT waits for the end of the current exposure or END command.sendCmd $gvar(libtplWaitTimeOut) "WAIT -expoId $ID"After Wait is completed, $ID is released, next SETUP must be made with -expoId 0 and must include INS.MODE keyword if instrument has it defined (at La Silla only SUSI2 has no modes.)

  36. Exposure sequence with BOSS commands set ID [sendCmd $gvar(suoseqSetupTimeOut) "SETUP -expoId 0 –file\ SUSI_img_obs_Exposures.ref ] sendCmd $gvar(suoseqSetupTimeOut) "SETUP -expoId $ID $cmdBuffer" sendCmd $gvar(suoseqStartTimeOut) "START -expoId $ID" sendCmd $gvar(suoseqWaitTimeOut) "WAIT -expoId $ID"

  37. Exposure sequence Using TPL methods catch { delete object obs } efoseqOBS obs efo ……………………………………………………… obs Setup "-file $TPL(REFSUP)" obs Start obs Wait

  38. interaction with outside systems • TIF(Telescope InterFace) Some telescope functions are not accessible thru BOSS and must be addressed thru tif, as follows: Telescope offset: set cmd [seq_msgSendCommand wt5tcs tifNA OFFSAD "$RAoff,$DEoff" ] seq_msgRecvReply -last $gvar(tifNAtimeout) $cmd errFlag Calibration unit: set cmdId [seq_msgSendCommand wt5tcs tifNB CAIN ] seq_msgRecvReply -last $gvar(tifNBtimeout) $cmdId errFlag

  39. interaction with outside systems • PCO( protocol converter ) pco is the tool to communicate with data reduction packages, namely MIDAS. FORWMSG sends a midas command to MIDAS:set cmS [ seq_msgSendCommand wsusi pco FORWMSG "MIDAS,11,$env(HOST),@@ EXT00loadImage lastFile.fits” ] seq_msgRecvReply -last $gvar(libtplMidasPCO) $cmS errFlag READKEY allows to read a MIDAS keyword as follows:set cmS [ seq_msgSendCommand wemmi pco READKEY \ "MIDAS,11,wemmi,outputr,REAL,0,1,4 " ]set Buffer [seq_msgRecvReply -last $gvar(libtplMidasPCO) $cmS errFlag]scan $Buffer "%d,%f,%f,%f,%f" a1 strx1 stry1 MEAN ny1 here Buffer is a string receiving the values of outputr(1) outputr(2) outputr(3) outputr(4) which are then splitted into strx1 stry1 MEAN ny1 thru scan command.

  40. tsfx Different templates use common groups of parameters alike several programs call common procedures. The PAF.INCLUDE *.tsfx command allows to build the different template tsf files from the main groups of parameters : Wlsops0..575 > more SUSI_img_obs_Exposures.tsfx ............. PAF.INCLUDE "suotsfSEQ_NEXPO.tsfx"; PAF.INCLUDE "suotsfDET_EXPTIME.tsfx"; PAF.INCLUDE "suotsfINS_FILT1.tsfx"; PAF.INCLUDE "suotsfDET.tsfx"; PAF.INCLUDE "suotsfSEQ_TYPE.tsfx"; Files called by PAF.INCLUDE must be stored in the <module>/include subdirectory while the main tsfx files must be stored in the <module>/src one.

  41. Installation As all other vlt software modules, template modules are installed among several VLT standard sub­directories thru a make all install clean command referring to the file: <module>/src/Makefile Specific parts of a template Makefile are: # TCL libraries (public and local) # ------------------------------ TCL_LIBRARIES = efoseq TCL_LIBRARIES_L = # <brief description of lllll library> efoseqTpl_OBJECTS = efoseqOBS efoseqTCS efoseqICS efoseqFIERA efoseqDR efoseqUIF efoseqDomeFF efoseqIntFF efoseq_OBJECTS = $(efoseqTpl_OBJECTS) # # INS_ROOT files to be installed #------------------------------- INS_ROOT_FILES = *.seq ../config/*.ref ../config/*.obd ../config/*.prg

  42. standard subdirectories After make install, template files are dispatched that way: $INS_ROOT/SYSTEM/COMMON/TEMPLATES/SEQ *.seq $INS_ROOT/SYSTEM/COMMON/TEMPLATES/TSF *.tsf $INS_ROOT/SYSTEM/COMMON/TEMPLATES/OBD *.obd $INS_ROOT/SYSTEM/COMMON/SETUPFILES *.ref $INS_ROOT/SYSTEM/COMMON/MIDAS/PROCS *.prg $INS_ROOT/SYSTEM/COMMON/CONFIGFILES shell scripts $INTROOT/lib/libefoseq/ efoseq*.tcl

  43. Configuration control cmm reminder To modify a module: • login under a VLT environment manager account;(e.g. efomgr nttmgr ferosmgr wfimgr nttops etc..) • Verify that <your name> and <your cmm code> are in ~/.cmmrc. • cd CURRENTLY_MOD • cmmModify -l <you name> <module> • ... modify ... • Modify <module>/Changelog • cmmCheckForArchive -l <you name> <module> • if OK, • cmmArchive -l <you name> <module> “<reason and/or description of the change>”
