PDPRP Technical LBC Goto Bench Routine
PDPRP Technical LBC Goto Bench Routine
Once LBC has determined it is time to go to another bench, it calls
this routine. Here is what it does:
- Send move command out Digital I/O card to Hardware Lightbeam
Controller
- Make sure light got there- return error value if not
- Here is where I would add filter control stuff
- Turn color of new bench name in GUI red
- Wait for telescopes to stop moving
- If this is a host-controlled bench, tell host computer it has the
light
- Set timers - either for when dwell is over if dwelling, or when next
cycle should start, if not
