This PR focuses on improving overheads during normal tiled observations. It also enables dithering. It is meant to run alongside
lvmguider 0.4.0
.lvmguider stop --now
. The newstop
command always cancels the guider task.pre-readout
hook forExposure
.GortObserver
to read out an exposure asynchronously.Gort.observe_tile()
will by default read the last exposure asynchronously to allow for the next slew and acquisition to happen during readout.GortObserver.register_overhead()
that measured the elapsed time in different parts of the slew and acquisition process and records the values to the database.Tile
are now a list of positions that the scheduler wants us to observe.Gort.observe_tile()
will try to observe all dither positions without stopping the guider.Gort.observe()
with a simple loop for observing tiles.
