Start Develop Experiment Runner

[elmu6301]

Overview

Experiment Runner is responsible for configuring the system for a specific sub experiment (ex Sweep Phi) and runs that sub experiment.

Details

• Create an overall function for running an experiment and use switch statements to select between the various sub experiments
• Not all sub experiments need to be defined yet
• May connect to USB devices, but since this is a start it may not be necessary. May be more important to focus on the rough structure and have others fill things out later.
• Should run through all present sub experiments.

Notes:

• Have the computer track the current orientation relative to the origin (i.e alignment point) for both devices and axis
• Track things/send commands in steps
• Have the computer facilitate the alignment routine
• Have a function to convert degrees into steps.
