Description
During PI#23 the design of how the power start-up and shutdown control via the TMC needs to be developed, so that it can be implemented in PI#24. This will include functionality in the TMC, Dish.LMC and possibly in the Dish Structure Controller and SPFC.
An ECP is being prepared to simplify the L1 requirements in regard, and a generic control flow has been developed (see https://confluence.skatelescope.org/display/TDT/Generic+power-on+flow+chart ) The minimal implementation for AA0.5 has also been defined at
The top-level philosophy is defined in https://confluence.skatelescope.org/display/TDT/Mid+Power+ON+sequence . Further details are being developed in the PI23 Program of Programs, Miro Frame: https://miro.com/app/board/uXjVKY4iwmw=/?moveToWidget=3458764584902587857&cot=14
In this PI, the following is suggested:
- KAROO work with the Dish DA (a.pellegrini) to map clearly what happens when a Dish System received power. The powering steps of each Dish susbsystem, and what is reported to the Dish.LMC.
- What happens when full power mode is activated. (NB. Note that there may be confusion between the Power restrictive mode, where Dish is instructed to limit power to x kW, which only limits DS Slewrate, vs the start-up LP mode, where some subsystems may not be fully enabled yet.) This detail needs to be clarified if not clear.
- Check that the lower-level ICDs are correct and understood for Dish/LMC implementation.
- TMC needs to figure out how to implement the Dish start-up and shutdown power control and design how this works, aligned with 1,2 and 3 above.
