| ===== When is selector called to select next target? ===== | |
| |
| Selector (//rts2-selector//) is process responsible for selecting new observational targets. It sends targets IDs using **next** command. You can imitate selector behaviour by running //rts2-mon//, selecting **EXEC** component and typing: //next 1000// to select target with id 1000. The selection is executed on the following occasions: | |
| |
| * When observatory is switched to ON state, so the //executor// knows what to observe | |
| * during last exposure on last exposing camera in script, so the //executor// is keep updated what to observe as the next target | |
| * every //idle_select// seconds, so new targets are selected even if some long script is running. The value of //idle_select// defaults to 300 seconds (=5 minutes). It can be changed by providing //--idle-select// parameter to //rts2-selector// (most probably in //etc/rts2/services// file). | |
