The telescope control system supervisory controller for the Thirty Meter Telescope
2006
The Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) project is a partnership between ACURA, AURA, Caltech, and the University of
California. The Telescope Control System (TCS) for TMT is comprised of many subsystems. The TCS Supervisory
Controller is responsible for pointing the telescope via an embedded pointing kernel, sequencing commands to the
telescope systems, responding to errors and alarms and interacting with the telescope safety system. This paper describes
the conceptual design for the Supervisory Controller and addresses the integration with the other TMT software systems.
The requirements are discussed in terms of producing a functional, usable, safe, reliable and maintainable system.
