Evora

Evora is the name of our Andor iKon-M 934 imaging camera, as well as the custom software that runs it.

Things to Know

The Evora software is under active development. At this time you should expect the following known issues:

• You will see an error related to JS9 the first time you load the page. Reload the page and it won't happen again. 

• Once you start exposing the page will essentially freeze. Commands and temperature updates won't work at first, but they are queued for when the exposure is finished. We recommend timing long exposures so you know when they'll end.

• Images display in JS9 zoomed in at first--remember to zoom out to see the entire field.

General Instructions

The Checklist steps you through operation. Remember to initialize the camera and home the filter wheel at the beginning of your session, and shutdown the camera at the end.

If Evora Misbehaves

Restart the Evora server with:

$ sudo systemctl restart evora-server
