This is very naive view of DAQFor details – see documentsmade by Xavier Grave

GUI and DAQGUI and DAQare two different programs running on different computers

Starting GUI with parameter – name of the computer where the DAQ is running (for weeks)

NARVAL DAQ

New object – Instrument Manager (IM)

Some advantages:- Security. All components of NARVAL can be hidden behind some firewall. The only contact can be just IM.

- Many GUIs can talk with one IM. They can be registered by username and password.

- One more level of complication.

- GUI can not talk directly to NARVAL components

New object – Instrument Manager (IM)Some disadvantages

Does it complicate the modelling idea?Does it complicate the modelling idea?

Modelling the reality

We can easily „reconstruct” the structure (and display it as a diagram)

It was never directly anyway…

First tests of GUI Instrument Manager successfully passed

Lucky the wsdl files given to me by Francesco are fully compatibile with my gSOAP standard

It works!

December 2006 Padova-Legnaro

Flexibility of IM has its costFlexibility of IM has its cost

IM does not want to care about the number of the parameters given by some actor andor about the meaning of them…

By this any new parameters introduced by XAVIER will not demand any change of IM.

However, the GUI must care about this - to produce the logical and convincing GUI

Sometimes may be more convenient

Registering the specra/ratios watching, or error messages

Even the basic version will be useful!

The Trieste team still work on is, but - in my opinion - no panic.

Even if it will not be done on time - the Agata Demonstrator can work without it.

Virtual Control Room – made by Trieste group.

It is the object which will supply: • log-booking,

• chatting,

• video conferencing, (between many GUI users)
