ATDAEMON

The ATDAEMON collects various monitoring information from the antennas and disseminates this to other parts of the system. Some of the main services of the ATDAEMON are:

• Collecting monitor point values from the antenna ACCs and sending them to the MP/SMALL>_SERVER so that CAOBS, CAMON etc on the VAXes can use the data.
• Collecting high data rate information about antenna drives and sending this to any instances of atdrivemon which may be running See on page for information on ATDRIVEMON. In some driving modes, information is also sent to the VAXes
• Receiving log messages from various parts of the system (primarily Legacy Server and the ACCs) and distributing these messages to any instances of ATLOGOBS which may be running

ATDAEMON runs on XBONES, normally as a background (daemon) process without a dedicated xterm on PERICLES.
