(2) Build Phase: Specify LFETS/LTC telemetry packets #10

Closed matthewhauer closed 4 years ago

matthewhauer commented 8 years ago

The LFETS will have both a 'direct' (plug in to Marionette DAQ via USB) and 'telemetered' configuration. In the latter, a psas_packet type shall be used to send telemetry data to any connected listeners and dashboards.

The contents of these telemetry messages needs to be specified. In doing so, the test stand sensors, transducers, and other sensing devices will be documented. Note that this is concerning the output from the DAQ and the LTC, not the output from the wires themselves. Sorry EE's, that's still on your plate.

The psas_packet is expected to map to the Marionette DAQ output serial messages. If the two differ, the details shall be documented (which will be addressed in another ticket).

This ticket shall be accepted when a psas_packet 'LFETS telemetry' type has been written up. A follow-up ticket shall be to implement said type

Tagging @jameysharp as psas_packet SME.

Lean on @KyleMeeuwsen about the input signal list required for the telemetry packets.
