IG General purpose command covering all the above options
IAF
Move the acquisition filter wheel to a new position. This command can also
set a default position for the filter wheel. The default position can then
be set by just typing IAF CR.
Command long-form: IAFW
ICL Command Format:
IAF posn Move AU filter wheel to posn
IAF SetDefault posn Set default position to posn
IAF Move filter wheel, prompt for posn
IGF
Move the guider filter wheel to a new position. This command can also set
a default position for the filter wheel. The default position can then
be set by just typing IGFCR.
Command long-form: IGFW
ICL Command Format:
IGF posn Move GU filter wheel to posn
IGF SetDefault posn Set default position to posn
IGF Move filter wheel, prompt for posn
ILA
Turn on or off any of the INTEGRAL calibration lamps. A prompt will be
issued for the lamp name and for the state if none is supplied on the
command line.
Current lamp options are: CuNe, CuAr and White
Command long-form: ILamps
ICL Command Format:
ILA lamp OnOff Turn calibration lamp lamp ON or OFF
IXA
Move the autoguider X slide to a new position. The new position is an
absolute position in microns. A prompt will be issued if no parameter is
supplied.
Command long-form: IXSlideAbs
ICL Command Format:
IXA position Move autoguider X slide to position
IYA
Move the autoguider Y slide to a new absolute position. The position is
specified in microns. A prompt will be issued if no parameter is given.
Command long-form: IYSlideAbs
ICL Command Format:
IYA position Move autoguider Y slide to position
IXR
Move the autoguider X slide by a relative amount specified in microns.
A prompt will be issued if no parameter is specified. The offset is
relative to the current position.
Command long-form: IXSlideRel
ICL Command Format:
IXR delta Move autoguider X slide by delta
IYR
Move the autoguider Y slide by a relative amount specified in microns.
A prompt will be issued if no parameter is specified. The offset is
relative to the current position.
Command long-form: IYSlideRel
ICL Command Format:
IYR delta Move autoguider Y slide by delta
ISA
Move both axes of the autoguider slide to a new absolute position.
Both axes will move simultaneously and the command will complete when
both have reached their final positions. Positions are specified in
microns.
Command long-form: IAGAbs
ICL Command Format:
ISA X Y Move autoguider slide to (X,Y)
ISR
Move both axes of the autoguider slide by a specified amount relative
to the current position. Both axes will move simultaneously and the
command will complete when both moves have finished. The deltas are
specified in microns.
Command long-form: IAGRel
ICL Command Format:
ISR dX dY Move autoguider slide by (dX,dY)
IDA
Move a selected mechanism to its datum point. The mechanism should be
specified by name or abbreviation, and will be prompted for if not
supplied.
Command long-form: IMechDatum
ICL Command Format:
IDA mech Move mech to its datum point.
IUP
Updates the mechanism's position by instructing the micro to report
the current position.
Command long-form: IMechUpdate
ICL Command Format:
IUP mech Update position of mech
IST
Stops the specified mechanism if it is currently moving. Any outstanding
ADAM command on the mechanism must be CANCEL'led first.
Command long-form: IMechStop
ICL Command Format:
IST mech Stop mech
ISP
Move the swing plate to select a new fibre bundle. The command also
selects whether the bundle is used at its observing or calibration
position. Prompts will be offered if parameters are not specified.
Command long-form: ISPFC
ICL Command Format:
ISP bundle position Select bundle at position where position = CALIBRATION!OBSERVING
IG(General-purpose-command)
General purpose command to control all aspects of INTEGRAL operation.
