Overview
Legacy TCS only allows remote telescope communication and control through a serial port on the main TCS computer. In order to allow network communication and control of the telescope we have built software called Telcom to convert tcp/ip sockets to serial communication. To make sure this software is up and running on the BOK telescope you can check the website http://bokpop.as.arizona.edu and look for the table marked telemetry. This webpage queries the telcom server about once a second.
Request syntax
Legacy TCS makes 14 pieces of information available these are
-Motion Status -Right Ascension -Declination -Hour Angle -Secantz (Air Mass) -Epoch -Julian Date -Universal Time -IIS position
