magTCSsim

This is the Magellan Telecope Control System simulator for the MagAO project. Implements a tracking telescope, and a TCP/IP server for access by instruments.

Build

Requires mxlib.

Compile with

  make -f $MXMAKEFILE magTCSsim

Simulator Commands

These are commands used to control the simulation that aren't in the normal TCS commands.

Connect with:

$ telnet localhost 5811

Then send commands starting with tcssim with:

$ tcssim <command> <arg>

quit simulating start/stop tracking start/stop catobj name catra ra catdec dec dome open dome close

To-Do

  • Need to implement a GUI (the old one is broken), possibly by interfacing with Stellarium
  • Need to implement simulation commands (probably on a different port)
