v0.1.1

Full description in #156

Description

First release that covers both the FQPM (tested on W7 component) and the WV (tested on Pos5 component).

WV tests performed on 02 February 2023. FQPM tests performed on 03 February 2023.

v0.1.0

Full description in #154

Description

Preparing a release that fully works on the THD2 testbed following work on Wed, 18 January 2023.

The tests for this release were done on Tuesday, 24 January 2023.

Since this is our first formal release, we focused on testing the FQPM coronagraph only and leave WV work for a later date.

v0.1.0-alpha

First hardware release for THD2 testbed

Checked requirements

FQPM coronagraph

• created matrix from default values on repo for FQPM, no need to change a single parameter, no errors; needs to run fast enough for debugging
• tested half DH matrix for FQPM on hardware, and simulation (converging EFC loop)
• tested full DH matrix for FQPM on hardware, and simulation (converging EFC loop)

Wrapped Vortex coronagraph

• created matrix for WV while only parameters changed are corona_type, wavelength_0, Science_sampling, without errors; needs to run fast enough for debugging
• tested half DH matrix for WV on hardware, and simulation (converging EFC loop)
• tested full DH matrix for WV on hardware, and simulation (converging EFC loop)

General

• matrices successfully tested on testbed have been saved to permanent interaction matrix folder on lab machine

Notes

This is supposed to be an intermediary release on our way to create a first release with all boxes above checked.
