地基广角相机阵(Ground-based Wide Angle Cameras,简称GwAc)是中法合作SVOM(Space Variable Objects Monitor,空间多波段变源监视器)天文卫星的地基观测设备,Mini-GWAC是其预研和补充设备.针对Mini—GWAC望远镜阵列,介绍了一种基于无线触屏平台进行操控的阵列式望远镜控制系统的设计与实现.从控制系统原理、系统硬件结构、软件设计、实验和测试等方面展开,详细叙述了该系统的开发及实现过程.该系统以基于WinCE系统的触控一体机为上位机,无线收发模块和可编程逻辑控制器(PLC)为核心,具有低成本、数据传输可靠、操作简单等优点,并较好地实现了在Mini—GWAC阵列式望远镜上的应用.
GWAC (Ground-based Wide Angle Cameras) are the ground-based observational instruments of the Sino-French cooperation SVOM (Space Variable Objects Monitor) astronomical satellite, and Mini-GWAC is a pathfinder and supplement of GWAC. In the context of the Mini-GWAC telescope array, this paper introduces the design and implementation of a kind of telescope array control system, which is based on wireless serial interface module to communicate. We describe the development and implementation of the system in detail in terms of control system principle, system hardware structure, software design, experiment, and test. The system uses the touchcontrol PC which is based on the Windows CE system as the upper-computer, the wireless transceiver module and PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) as the core. It has the advantages of low cost, reliable data transmission, and simple operation. So far, the control system has been applied to Mini-GWAC successfully.
