  1. LBTO PSF Subsystem April 24, 2007 Chris Biddick 1 cjb

  2. Introduction • The Point Spread Function Subsystem (PSF) controls the optical collimation and active optics on one telescope side • Primary mirror collimation • Secondary mirror (hexapod) collimation • Tertiary mirror collimation • Primary mirror active optics • Secondary mirror active optics • Arbitration among all the above 2 cjb

  3. Introduction (2) • Gets commands from the CSQ/IIF, (PCS, GCS, AOS), and GUI • Sends commands to the PMC, (OSS, AOS) • Partly finished – currently supports primary mirror collimation and active optics 3 cjb

  4. Subsystem Command Classes • PrimaryMirror – 14 commands • PSF – 2 commands 4 cjb

  5. Primary Mirror Collimation • Collimation file • Altitude compensation • Temperature compensation • Active optics focus and coma • Global offsets • Entered by TO • Instrument offsets • IIF stepFocus for example • All above values are summed for each DOF 5 cjb

  6. Primary Mirror Collimation File • A file for each instrument • Generated by observing staff from instrument data with IDL program • [S|D]XPM<inst>Collimation.dat • Currently part of the TCS distribution • Only SXPMLBCCollimation.dat has real data 6 cjb

  7. Primary Mirror Collimation File • Altitude compensation • Adjusts mirror position (translation and rotation) as a function of altitude • Table quantized in 0.1 degree steps from -2 to 92 degrees • Temperature compensation • 3rd order polynomial in delta temperature for each DOF (X, Y, Z, Rx, Ry, Rz) • Currently only linear term for Z is used 7 cjb

  8. Primary Mirror Active Optics • Zernike coefficients from instrument • Supports up to 56 coefficients • Uses Buddy Martin’s code to correct distortions with mirror bending modes • Focus and coma are normally handled by moving the mirror (added to collimation) • Calculated forces are sent to the PMC which does sanity check 8 cjb

  9. Zernike Polynomials 9 cjb

  10. Z5 Correction Surface displacement Correction forces 10 cjb

  11. Z16 Correction Surface displacement Correction forces 11 cjb

  12. Z36 Correction Surface displacement Correction forces 12 cjb

  13. Z5+Z16+Z36 Correction Surface displacement Correction forces 13 cjb

  14. Z5+Z16+Z36 Correction Total correction Total forces 14 cjb

  15. CSQ requests • Set new instrument • Loads collimation table • Set mirror position (instrument offsets) • Step mirror position (instrument offsets) • Set Zernike coefficients • Adjust mirror • Calculates forces and sends to PMC 15 cjb

  16. Future directions • Secondary mirror (hexapod) collimation • Tertiary mirror collimation • Only has four degrees of freedom • Secondary mirror active optics • Offloading • Adaptive optics to hexapod, primary • Hexapod to/from primary • To/from tertiary • Arbitration 16 cjb
