Software Plan • Basic Software for Data Acquisition of a prototype array test in the dark • Deliver by the end of Q3 2002 Overview Current Status Work Plan Deliverables
Legend Wire Fiber Optic Hardware does not exist Firmware work needed Hardware Picture Detector Bias ADR (DR) Detectors + Superconducting Electronics SQUID array preamp Digital Feedback Feedback Power/Interface Master Clock Address Card PCI Card Linux
Overview • Control Software • Detector Bias • SQUID array bias • FE SQUID bias • Address card • Digital Feedback • Clock Card • Data Acquisition • PCI card • Visualization
Current Status • Some Hardware testing Software is written for all the cards which have been built • Basic Control Software has been written • Serial port interface • Linux, C, Python 1.5.2 • Basic Data Acquisition • Linux device driver for PCI card • Crude visualization via Python + Tk
Work Plan • Select software and platforms to be used for various software tasks. • Linux, Windows • C,C++,Python, LabView, JAVA, IRC • Software for hardware verification • Automated test systems for room temperature electronics • Automated test sytems for SQUID screening • Software for database management of test results • Software for data acquisition • Software for monitoring of data acquisition • Software for data visualization • Software for data analysis
Basic Control Software Basic data acquisition tools for device characterization Data visualization tools used to verify 32x32 performance Data analysis used to verify 32x32 performance Final software for use at the telescope Deliverables NO YES
