+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ XRT Flare Trigger Notes +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This file outlines the notes for the XRTF trigger work. These are for my own benefit. ;-) +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ xrtf_mechanism.txt: General description of initialisation and use. General description of how the basic method works. This is how a timeline study is enabled as a trigger study and the process of creating a corresponding response DB entry. Also, how the TL and response DB entries are related. Further discussion of the processes involved when moving and copying XRTF trigger studies are described below. This also includes changing the hunter study pointing after the response has been created Status: Finished +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ xrtf_moving.txt: Moving the Hunter Study (single entry) Description of process when a hunter study is moved on the timeline (the new pointing for this study is re-calculated according to the new time). However, the response (DB entry) study pointing needs to be updated as well. In effect, this is achieved by re-inheriting the new hunter study pointing. Essentially, mip and yip are retained. Status: finished for case where "Verify FOV" is enabled. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ xrtf_copying.txt: Copying (and pasting) an XRTF trigger study When an existing XRTF trigger study is copied and pasted to a new time, the pointing must be re-calculated. This is already in operation for the hunter study. However, a new response entry must be initialised whose pointing is inherited from the hunter study.

It compares; + response_st_id Response Study ID + filler_st_id Filler Study ID + adjust_x + adjust_y + raster_identifier Repoint Raster Index + locate_x X0 + locate_y Y0 + ra1_mip mip + ra1_yip yip This table is uploaded to the s/c.
