cmtest is a Cshell Motor Test program. This lets you exercise the individual
axis and io bits of the PC 38 card.
Here are the DC motors commands:
DIT [off|on] - Moves the CCD/Dichroic assembly.
DIMIRROR [off|on] - Moves the Direct Imaging mirror.
LAMP [ off | ar | kr | xe | cont ] - Turn on the calibration lamps.
LMIRROR [ off | on ] - Move the CalBox or Lamp mirror.
Here are the stepper motor commands:
SET [ FilterA | FilterB | Shutter | Slit | Grating ] - Sets up the
internal parameters to one of these motors.
INIT - Initializes the stepper motor wheel by searching for the limit.
MOVETO num - Move to the step position indicated by num.
QUIT - exits the application.
Entering anything which do not match the above commands will be sent directly
to the PC-38 board. So you may enter PC-38 commands directly.
GRATING stay within 100,000 to 400,000 (of encoder)
