Abstract: |
DISCOS (Orlati et al. 2018) is the control software of the three INAF
(Italian National Institute for Astrophysics) single-dish radio telescopes. It has been
developed starting from the ALMA Common Software framework (Chiozzi et al. 2004)
and its core is shared between the Sardinia Radio Telescope (SRT), the Grueff Radio
Telescope in Medicina and the Noto radio telescope. DISCOS controls all the telescope
subsystems, it offers the user multiple observing strategies providing a combination of
textual and graphical user interfaces. In order to ease operations for the aforementioned
telescopes and carry on the observations in a more efficient manner, the users are provided with a means to control the telescope remotely. We hereby describe the solution
we implemented, with particular emphasis on the remote access to the Sardinia Radio
Telescope, for both observation and maintenance purposes. |
