The Info view is used for two purposes; display the progress of an image exposure and set certain exposure/image related parameters in LOIS. It is also used to enable and set up sound for certain actions.
LOIS parameters
...
The widget for image information is pre-filled for each instrument based on the relevant values in the MasterInstrumentConfiguration.xml. For instance for LMI the section looks like:
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<storage-config>
<path></path>
<telescope-id></telescope-id>
<instrument-id>lmi</instrument-id>
<filename-abbr>lmi</filename-abbr>
<root-filename-date>false</root-filename-date>
<date-noon-rule>true</date-noon-rule>
<dash-number>off</dash-number>
</storage-config>

Pressing the "Apply" button sends commands for setting both the Observer and Image info parameters in LOIS. |
Sound Effects

The alert sounds are disabled by default and here is where the user can select the sound file to play for each action.
