FLI module for pyobs

FLI kernel module

The FLI kernel module needs to be installed in the system.

Install pyobs-fli

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/pyobs/pyobs-fli.git

Install dependencies:

cd pyobs-fli
pip3 install -r requirements

And install it:

python3 setup.py install

Configuration

The FliCamera class is derived from BaseCamera (see pyobs documentation) and adds a single new parameter:

setpoint:
    The initial setpoint in degrees Celsius for the cooling of the camera.

The class works fine with its default parameters, so a basic module configuration would look like this:

module:
  class: pyobs_fli.FliCamera
  name: FLI camera

Dependencies

• pyobs for the core funcionality. It is not included in the requirements.txt, so needs to be installed separately.
• Cython for wrapping the SBIG Universal Driver.
• Astropy for FITS file handling.
• NumPy for array handling.
