Detailed Description

OVRO antenna-specific FrontEnd control interface.

Ovro receiver systems have additional functionality which is not general enough to be included in the Common Antenna API. That additional functionality is included here.

Member Function Documentation

void carma::antenna::ovro::FrontEndControl::getVgap	(	in CurrentMode	mode,
		in float	current
	)
raises	(	carma::util::UserException
	)

Get Vgap Measures the junction gap voltage, which is reported in the blanking frames.

The LO attenuation is set to maximum during the measurement. The new value is reported in the blanking frame monitor packets.

Parameters

mode	CurrentMode specifying which current to use.
current	Current to use for Vgap if mode == MESSAGE in mA.

void carma::antenna::ovro::FrontEndControl::setIgap	(	in float	current	)
raises	(	carma::util::UserException
	)

Set Igap Sets the value of current to be used as the default for Vgap measurements.

Parameters

current Current to use for getVgap when mode == STORED in mA.

void carma::antenna::ovro::FrontEndControl::setIjLoopMode	(	in IjLoopMode	mode	)
raises	(	carma::util::UserException
	)

Set Ij loop mode.

Parameters

mode	IjLoopMode.

void carma::antenna::ovro::FrontEndControl::setLoAttenuation	(	in float	atten	)
raises	(	carma::util::UserException
	)

Set LO attenuation.

Parameters

LO	Attenuation in %

void carma::antenna::ovro::FrontEndControl::setVjLoopMode	(	in VjLoopMode	mode	)
raises	(	carma::util::UserException
	)

Determine method for setting mixer voltage.

Parameters

mode	VjLoopMode.
