MSIM STARTUP

  1. Open MSIM Camera software and select Test mode
  2. Open MSIM Main software and select Test mode

Connect Motors

  • Open Control->Show Motor Control -> SetupConn -> Check that all USB ports are in the selected window and add them if not. Then click ok.
    • Optionally may test selected ports to see how many motors are connected (2 per cobra unless gen1)
  • Open Control -> Show Motor Control -> Click connect and observe one or more motor ids populate the table
  • Open Control -> Show Motor Control -> Load most recent Motor Control Textfile -> Close Dialog

Setup Simulation (necessary for targets)

  • Open Simulation -> Show -> Load the most recent Arm Simulation Textfile -> Close Dialog

CAMERA SETUP

From the msim main sequencer, load: D:\DevCodePft\Main\UI\Data\Sequences\Remote_CameraSetup.lst Check that all commands complete successfully (green)

Load Bias and Dark Image

  • Open main mSim -> Camera -> GetImage -> Load latest Image with same relative exposure time from PfsTests Folder on D:/
  • Or run D:\DevCodePft\Main\UI\Data\Sequences\Compute Bias and Dark Images.lst and modify the exposure time to be what you need

REMOTE DESKTOP OF SAGE-PC

  • From windows start menu, type in 'Remote Desktop Connection' and open the terminal
  • In computer field, input the IP '137.79.69.105'
  • Connect using username/password of 'sage'/'cobra'

CENTER METROLOGY

  1. Execute the appropriate motor map sequence on msim. D:\DevCodePft\Main\UI\Data\Sequences\GEN2_GEN3_S1_Centers_single_image.lst
  2. Edit and execute the following script in matlab with the correct direcotry containing center metrology images: \Dropbox\PFSMatlab\Metrology\getImgCentroids.m
  3. There should now be ImageId data structures in your workspace. Save them to the appropriate DropBox results folder.
  4. Edit and execute the motor map script: \Dropbox\PFSMatlab\Metrology\makeMotorMap.m
  5. initImage should be the first reference image and then mMapImage should be the center metrology image.
