The aim of this section of the course is to enable you to use simple computer programs to solve a variety of common astronomical tasks. ... I have (somewhat arbitrarily) decided to use Python for this course, because it seems to be gaining popularity fast for astronomical data handling, and because some of you will have encountered it at the ATNF course. ... We've put Python (plus all relevant libraries) on the Stromlo Linux computers moron and maggot. ... Now log in to moron (or maggot). ...

The Agile ICC computer (nimble) contains a high-accuracy GPS-synchronized timer card that emits pulses that trigger readout of the Agile camera when run in external synch mode. ... The recommended configuration for Agile has no GPS receiver (see 1 PPS Vs. The Built-In GPS Receiver below). ... Using external 1 PPS with on a GPS receiver mode is not fully supported, in that the timer card's firmware has been programmed to assume a GPS, but the tech support person claimed it would work. ...
