The DEIMOS Init/Stow GUI is one of the components of
the DEIMOS control GUI.
The following figure shows the layout of the DEIMOS Init/Stow GUI:
The GUI is composed of three different areas:
Recalibrate instrument: This is used to home the
mechanisms. One can home each mechanism individually or all
mechanisms at once with the Recalibrate all button.
Return to default: This is used to send the stages
to a predefined set of values. It also loads the default
detector video offsets. The Apply default config button
is used in the early stages of the afternon checkout.
End-of-nigth: This is used to put DEIMOS in safe mode
at the end of the night. The Stow button closes the
hatch, unclamps the grating, closes the shutter, turns off all
the internal lamps (calibration and FCS lamps) and halts the
rotator.
Additionally, the GUI also has a logging text box a the bottom,
which will display progress information for the different
actions. The Close button closes the GUI.
The GUI has all control areas disabled (grayed out) by default. To
enable control of one of the areas, simply left-click on the area
title. For instance, to enable control to calibrate the mechanims,
left-click on Recalibrate instrument. The GUI will look as
follows:
