12. Instrument Control Graphical
User Interface (GUI)
Operation of the Groundwinds Control Program is controlled by the Instrument
Control Program. It provides a graphical user interface that:
- Allows remote operation of the system, including power management
of all hardware.
- Allows the operator to execute scanfiles
- Displays a graph of windspeed versus altitude
- Displays operational and command response messages from the Groundwinds
Control Program
- Allows the user to bring up windows which display current images
of the fringes from the CCD cameras as well as continuously updated
telemetry from the Groundwinds hardware.
The following image shows the main window of the Instrument Control Program.
