A test program for Finger Lakes Instrument cameras and filterwheels. Originally developed for the MicroLine 16803 camera and the CFW-4-5 filterwheel, but might be useful for different cameras and filterwheels as well.

There are two executables, flicamtest and fliflttest to test the camera and the filterwheel, respectively.

• libfli (http://www.flicamera.com/software/index.html)
• argtable (http://argtable.sourceforge.net/, on Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt-get install libargtable2-dev)
• cfitsio (http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/fitsio/, on Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt-get install libcfitsio3-dev)

C99.

You can use either make or scons to build the executables. No ./configure is provided, thus you might need to update the library paths in the Makefile or SContruct file. The Makefile expects that the gcc executable is available in PATH.

Currently the -g debug flag is included for the compilation to ease debugging, but it can be safely removed.

flicamtest:
flicamtest --info
flicamtest --get-temperature
flicamtest --set-temperature=N
flicamtest --fan=(on|off)
flicamtest --shutter=(open|close)
flicamtest --acquire=<time> --shutter=(open|close) --output=xyz.fits
           [--bin=<bx,by>] [--offset=<x0,y0>] [--size=<sx,sy>]
           [--mode=(1mhz|8mhz)] [--verbose]
flicamtest --help

fliflttest:
fliflttest --info
fliflttest --set-filter=N
fliflttest --home
fliflttest --help

The explanation of the options can be acquired by flicamtest --help or fliflttest --help.
