Asterism ConfigBuilder

swalker2m opened this issue · comments

To get the asterism configuration down to the seqexec, it will need to be included in the IConfig built up by the TelescopeObsCompCB. It seems like a function Asterism => List[ISysConfig] to merge into the configuration is needed. Parameter names TBD.

Did you mean TargetObsCompcCB? I don't see a file named TelescopeObsCompCB.

As for this aspect of configuration building, I have not yet had to work with this, so I'm not sure how complicated this will be and what exactly will need to be done on both the OT and Seqexec ends.

Did you mean TargetObsCompcCB?

Correct, that's the one. This shouldn't be terribly difficult. It just needs to read the Asterism and add new parameters to the ISysConfig which is just a weird Map.

As stated, this should be easy. 1-2 days, I would imagine.

One additional wrinkle is that we're passing targets to the seqexec now for the first time. In OCS2 code we don't apply proper motion corrections and instead pass the information on to the TCS. It isn't clear whether this strategy will work for GHOST or if we'll need to apply proper motion correction first.

This task is done, but we are going to have to - at some point - include proper motion correction.
