Changelog#

1.3.1 - February 27, 2024#

✨ Improved#

  • Bump archon to 0.13.4.

🔧 Fixed#

  • Fix temperature alerts not being raised if the controller was not available.

1.3.0 - December 22, 2023#

✨ Improved#

  • Bump archon to 0.13.2.

1.3.0b2 - December 17, 2023#

🔧 Fixed#

  • #14 Support archon 0.13.x.

1.3.0b1 - December 15, 2023#

⚙️ Engineering#

  • #12 Deprecate 3.9, support 3.12. Lint using ruff. Update workflows.

  • #13 Updates to FFS and lamps headers.

🔧 Fixed#

  • Increase timeout for specMech pneumatic issues.

1.2.1 - July 26, 2023#

✨ Improved#

  • Check if shutter times out while opening/closing. If the shutter fails closing, the exposure is read anyway.

  • Check if specMech is responding on each `mech`` actor command.

1.2.0 - April 26, 2023#

✨ Improved#

  • Use BOSS_extra_purge_erase_v8.acf which mimics the voltages used at APO for b2 (e2v). This seems to solve the “puddles” seen around the serial register and may improve the settle time after a power cycle.

1.1.0 - April 13, 2023#

🚀 New#

  • #2 Add alerts for LN2 and CCD temperature and actor heartbeat.

✨ Improved#

  • Use new ACF file with e-purge, erase, and improvements to horizontal transfer.

  • Change flushing to not binned.

  • Upgraded to use sdss-archon>=0.9.0.

  • The collecting of actor information (lamps, specMech, etc.) now happens during the exposure instead of after readout completes.

  • Create checksum files using sha1sum.

🏷️ Change#

  • Set b2 temperature to -98 degC.

1.0.0 - October 19, 2022#

🚀 New#

  • First stable version tested at LCO.

  • Added MechController.pneumatic_status() method.

✨ Improved#

  • mech move --home has been renamed to --center.

  • Moving all three collimator motors at once to an absolute position is no longer allowed.

  • Additional safety checks before sending any move command to the collimator motors.

  • SpecMechReply.sentence has been removed since different replies for the same command can have difference sentences. The sentence is stored as the first value in the reply on each SpecMechReply.data (the S[0-9] prefix is removed).

  • Added multiple new header keywords (LCO TCC, specMech, etc.)

🏷️ Changed#

  • Rename fan_volts -> power_supply_volts.

🔧 Fixed#

  • Fixed several bugs and confirmed that yao hartmann works as expected.

0.1.0 - June 11, 2022#

🚀 New#

  • Initial version of yao.

  • #1 Initial implementation of the specMech controller based on specActor.
