| - | ====== Tidbinbilla schedule file preparation ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Obtaining Schedule Files ===== | ||
| - | Dowload the .skd and .sum files for the experiment from the FTP site and put them in pcfs40: | ||
| - | |||
| - | * scp the .skd file to pcfs40: | ||
| - | * on pcfs40 in the sched_prep directory: | ||
| - | * run drudg | ||
| - | * At the prompt give the name of the .skd file | ||
| - | * At the next prompt, give the name of the antenna (in this case " | ||
| - | * select 3 for a SNAP file then 12 for a PRC file, then 0 to exit | ||
| - | * transfer the resulting .prc and .snp files to pcfs42: | ||
| - | |||
| - | Both the procedure and SNAP files need some modification. The | ||
| - | procedure file needs some extra procedures to set up the PCFS | ||
| - | patching and VFCs (this is just to keep them happy and doesn' | ||
| - | impact on the data being recorded or the Tsys measurements). There' | ||
| - | also a new command to define, called sched_end, that forces the NMC | ||
| - | script to exit nicely. The SNAP file needs quite a bit of | ||
| - | modification. The first thing is to remove any S2 specific commands | ||
| - | as the PCFS won't be controlling the S2. The next thing is to | ||
| - | comment out some of the wait commands as some wait commands appear later in | ||
| - | the file but have earlier times. For example: | ||
| - | |||
| - | | ||
| - | | ||
| - | tape | ||
| - | | ||
| - | | ||
| - | | ||
| - | tape | ||
| - | | ||

| - | | ||
| - | tape | ||
| - | | ||
| - | | ||
| - | | ||
| - | tape | ||
| - | | ||
| - | |||
| - | Note the wait for 2007.080.09: | ||
| - | 2007.080.09: | ||
| - | result in sources being missed. Lastly, the SNAP file should be | ||
| - | modified to include source commands the NMC script understands. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Procedure file modifications. | ||
| - | * Remove the setup01, unloader and loader definitions. These are all S2 specific and will cause problems if they' | ||
| - | * Add the following definitions: | ||
| - | |||

| - | Note the above is for L-band. For other bands, adjust the LO frequency | ||
| - | (to the first LO), change the patching to the low frequency filters if | ||
| - | needed, and the VC frequencies to something in the band. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== SNAP file modifications ===== | ||
| - | Run the script remove_S2_from_SNAP.pl to remove all S2 specific | ||
| - | commands and CSIRO2DSN (twice) to remove the time wait problem. This | ||
| - | can be done with a single command: | ||
| - | |||
| - | ~/ | ||
| - | |||
| - | Obviously replace SNAP_FILE.snp with the name of your SNAP file. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Lastly, modify the temp.snp to include the NMC commands with | ||
| - | precessed source coordinates: | ||
| - | |||
| - | | ||
| - | |||
| - | Note you need to provide the year and day number of the experiment. The output file should be the name of the original SNAP file. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Transfer the modified SNAP and procedure files to pcfs40. | ||
| - | The .snp file goes in / | ||
