... As you may recall, the HRC suspended on September 23rd because of a problem with one of the relays on a signal processing chain board in the CCD detector electronics. Analysis of the condition by the ACS Anomaly Review Board concluded that the most likely cause of the problem was a bit of non-conductive debris between two relay contacts that must meet to make a proper electrical connection. ... The other ACS CCD camera, the Wide Field Channel [WFC], is operating nominally and fully functional. ...

... First of all, I should say that you cannot guarantee user-mode processes to have exact control of timing because of the multi-tasking nature of Linux. ... However, for most applications using I/O ports, this does not really matter. To minimise this, you may want to nice your process to a high-priority value (see the nice(2) manual page) or use real-time scheduling (see below). ... Linux 2.x kernels have soft real time support; see the manual page for sched_setscheduler(2) for details. ...
