How do I send commands to Coralie outside the observation software?

Caution: If the thorium or tungsten lamp is to be switched on, the first step is to power the calibration power supply located in the cabinet DIVERS-L102 in the pump room in this way:

t120_power -on

Be aware (but this is not a problem) that this command will also power the circulation pump to the heat exchanger which will turn on and power the control of the telescope (but without movement). t120_power -off will switch off all elements switched on before.

All of Coralie's electromechanisms can be controlled and their status read by means of commands typed into a terminal.

All commands have the suffix TCOR_.

To know the commands available, type:

TCOR<tab>

TCOR_spectro_diag

Example:

glslogin1:~> TCOR_lamp
Usage: lamp <action> <param> with <action>:= (0:=stat, 1:=set) <param>:=(0:= off, 1:=on thorium,2:=on tungstene | 0 for stat)

TCOR_lamp 0 0

which returns (cryptic!)

Lamp: status =  14 0 0

The status is indicated by "STATUS: position lamp: 0 (0..3)" indicating here that the both lamps are off.

For the status of the lamps it is indicated (Lamp tunix ...) the unix time of the switching on of one or the other lamp.

Exemples (according the short help given without arguments):

1) To switch on the tungsten lamp (according the help) the command is:

TCOR_lamp 1 2

2) To switch off the both lamp

TCOR_lamp 1 0
