DeviceHub was updated on Development & Observatory Computers today (2022-06-26)
from version 6.6.0.11 to new 6.6.0.12 version.
This new
version contains a change to returned dome slewing value after initiating a
SlewToAzimuth command, following correspondance with author of DeviceHub over an
issue with DH Dome returning to normal polling (every 5000ms) too quickly after
a SlewToAzimuth command. This was a problem when using Pulsar Dome where
AstroMain's dome client was unable to 'see' short <= 5 deg dome slews (nor the
first part of longer slews), but would instead suddently see the result of the
slew some 5.1s later.
6.6.0.12 Release Notes
-
Simplify DomeManager command logic.
- Ensure that short slews are handled
correctly so that the client can get the downstream driver's Slewing state
immediately after the command is issued.
Activity Log
After installation of the new version the
Activity Log Capacity value (which was reset to its standard default value
(125000) during installation ) was again increased ten-fold (1250000) by editing
the DeviceHub configuration file (see notes
DeviceHub 6.6.0.10,
2022-06-02 )
Results
Daytime testing showed that DeviceHub 6.6.0.12
made no practical difference to the data recieved by dome client and didn't
resolve issue with 'seeing' short slew (<= 5 deg). No
issues found with new version during S1020A session attempt (2022-06-26) or
during S1020 session (2022-06-27).
