No images saved for M3 cameras #21

Closed noralinn closed 5 months ago

noralinn commented 5 months ago

New, exciting mystery issue!

M3 doesn't save any images and hasn't done it since Jan 9.

SaveOnDisk is 1. The disks have space. Shutting down and restarting the mount doesn't help. Restarting computers neither.

Otherwise it works as normally. It always says new image available in the slaves.

I will look into it

I see the problem but can't do anything now because nomachine is working wierdly. Since it is due to LAST_OCS being on branch j2000inHeader, I could suggest to try to checkout branch mastrolindo instead. There is one file +obs/+util/+observation/NoraObsWithFocus.m which you have to move away first.

[apart of the nomachine problem on my side] The reason was the absence of a pointing model. Because of that, some computed coordinates like Dec_J2000 resulted as empty, and the function creating the FITS header silently errored out, preventing the creation of the file. I have now committed a quick fix to LAST_OCS/j2000inHeader and pulled it on 03e/w.

I assumed that the fact that no files after 9/1 were present means only that no image was taken before yesterday, i.e. no data loss.

I understand from this that it is now ok to take an image even if no pointing model exist.

Yes, with this quick fix in this branch the images will be saved, with some empty fields in the header, when no pointing model is in the configuration file. We should discuss perhaps a more clever solution, for the process of building the model itself.
