 1. Check that the delays and holes in NCS data streams do not re-appear when NIKA is running.
 1. Debug the IMBFITS formating so that they are at last produced without errors, and finally allow real time processing.
 1. Test for the first time operations with only IRAM Granada personnel at the Telescope and NIKA Grenoble team using remote control.

 The dominant components of the goal do not necessitate sensitive KID, so no cool down of the instrument. However the full setup of the instrument of observations on sky must be operational; this includes the full electronic chain and real scans of the telescope commanded via !PaKo. Though we could keep the electronics the cable spiral room and control the detectors acquisition via the network, which would be a good test of this new network link, we have decided to lift it up in the cabin hence mimicking real observations as much as possible with a warm cryostat. Indeed the problems we had may be related to the network setup.

 We will debug the IMBFITS step by step. People involved in the NIKA data & IMBFITS making & checking (Albrecht, Juan MP, Xavier, Alain, Robert, Samuel, and possibly Walter and Nicolas P) communicate via this wiki page to establish very clearly the main problems and action to do to solve them (see table below), and possibly use the data we currently have to start debugging, so that we are as ready as possible for May 7.
 
 After this dry run, we will make the status, and determine a date for another short test run (e.g. begin of June ?). Hopefully for this one only the problems that necessitate valid KID data (e.g. KID flags) remain. In that case this short run would be cold.

Goals of the run

  1. Check that the delays and holes in NCS data streams do not re-appear when NIKA is running.
  2. Debug the IMBFITS formating so that they are at last produced without errors, and finally allow real time processing.
  3. Test for the first time operations with only IRAM Granada personnel at the Telescope and NIKA Grenoble team using remote control.

Organization Plan

  • The dominant components of the goal do not necessitate sensitive KID, so no cool down of the instrument. However the full setup of the instrument of observations on sky must be operational; this includes the full electronic chain and real scans of the telescope commanded via PaKo. Though we could keep the electronics the cable spiral room and control the detectors acquisition via the network, which would be a good test of this new network link, we have decided to lift it up in the cabin hence mimicking real observations as much as possible with a warm cryostat. Indeed the problems we had may be related to the network setup.

    We will debug the IMBFITS step by step. People involved in the NIKA data & IMBFITS making & checking (Albrecht, Juan MP, Xavier, Alain, Robert, Samuel, and possibly Walter and Nicolas P) communicate via this wiki page to establish very clearly the main problems and action to do to solve them (see table below), and possibly use the data we currently have to start debugging, so that we are as ready as possible for May 7.
