It would be beneficial to have an overview of all voltages and currents of the telescope.
This requires the following:

  1. Measuring and sending the info as a scan parameter in the pyBAR scan
  2. Adding a telescope status converter in silab_online_monitor to filter this info from the data stream
  3. Adding a receiver for the data stream with nice plots over time, maybe similar to the Beast TDC display

So the voltages/currents should then stored in the scan.h5 file or in a seperated one?
Pascal added already a status dock, so I can use this 👍

Yes, if it is a scan parameter the values are automatically stored in the scan.h5 file, thus also automatically available in the data stream for the online monitor

Is it possible to obtain power consumption details (eg. voltage, current) for every single plane of the telescope (m26 and fei4) ?

NO is easy answer. You can monitor power supplies. One could also use some special circuit on MMC3 board but...

So what we can monitor is input voltage/current of Mimosas and VDDD and VDDA and corresponding currents for FE-I4, correct?

Yes, one power supply for Mimosa planes and one for the FE-I4 we can monitor. And that is to my mind sufficient.

This is implemented and working, no?

Yes, in principal this is working. The development version of the telescope_status converter tough, replays simulated data right now, which is very confusing during a test beam. @YannickDieter can you maybe commit and push your version of the telescope_status converter? This should be correct since you used this feature in a test beam before, correct?

This has been changed a lot. Due to the new readout software for M26 there are no scan parameters anymore and we separated FE-I4 and M26. I made a general status monitor (+ producer and converter) were one can define any remotely accessible device (power supply, source meter, ...) for monitoring its data. But I have to work on this a bit. I will this push it if its done ;)
