9:24: system fully started, LGSW, ADSEC, FLAO, IRTC are ready. On the FLAO we load the board setup 2014-05-16 - ARGOS cal onaxis.

We begin creating different subapertures sets for different slope computing algorithms. The parent subaperture set is 20141104_192000, the subapertures positions and numbers are not changed, just the pixel weights are variated.

SL. ALGO SUBAPS Notes
CoG 20141104_192000 Standard algo, px of each subap are normalized on the subap flux
WWPA 20141106_162533 px value multiplied by the sqrt of the px flux
CoG Norm 20141106_163503 all px are normalized on the overall pupil average flux
ToCG48 20141106_180427 subaps thresholded to 48 ADU

We reposition hexapod to send light into LGSW. We close the jitter loop we have these values:

Pupil PI X PI Y
Blue -3.40 -0.15
Yellow -3.80 4.60
Red -2.30 -3.45
HEXAPOD: X = -3.02, Y = -6.27, Z = 4.38, Rx = -244, Ry = 27

Now we close the loop with few modes to better center the hexapod on the 3 FoVs:

Pupil PI X PI Y
Blue 1.00 0.00
Yellow -1.80 0.70
Red 0.00 0.45
HEXAPOD: X = -3.02, Y = -6.27, Z = 4.38, Rx = -244, Ry = 30

We close the loop on the 150modes without disturbance, in the meanwhile we build a reconstructor with 50modes.

REC: 50modes_ryb_300Hz_TTremoved

We load the new reconstructor, we set the diodes to the minimum current (0.03A = 500-1000 ADU/subap). We close the loop with gain [0.5, 0.3] and also the pupil loop is closed. Everything seems OK. The blue pupil goes away but it recovers by itself...

PBL controller crashes because it lost the connection with BCU. Anyhow the loop is still running...

Acquisition of IMs for different slope computation algorithms

We power up the diodes to have a flux of about 8000 ADU/subap on each pupil.

11:20: we have to restart the controller because it lost the connection with BCU. Then we have to recenter hexapod and PIs:

Pupil PI X PI Y
Blue -1.67 -0.67
Yellow -1.00 0.73
Red -0.83 0.45
HEXAPOD: X = -3.02, Y = -6.27, Z = 4.38, Rx = -247, Ry = 32

We start calibrating the various slope algorithms, the pupil loop is closed (PCL) and the jitter loop is open (JOL). The acquisition sequence is the same for all the algos:
  1. acquire IM in OL
  2. generate a 10 modes REC, close the loop with it and acquire another IM
  3. generate a 50 modes REC, close the loop with it and acquire another IM
  4. generate a 150 modes REC

Acquisition of slope offset

Now we optimize the PSF on CCD47 by closing the FLAO loop with 400 modes, we use FLAO REC: 20130919_014135, we put the white light source at 80 steps. At this point we acquire the slope offset for all the different slope computation algorithms, in the meanwhile we acquire snapshots on both ARGOS and FLAO:
