Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Erik Lensson, SMIEEE, mSMPTE Head, Engineering Operations 29 October 2009

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Engineering Operations

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Engineering Operations – What we do Day-to-day maintenance of ATNF radioastronomy facilities at Parkes, Narrabri, Coonabarabran and (in the future) the Boolardy WA Murchison Radio Observatory (MRO). Preventative and corrective maintenance. Planning for future operations. Development Projects, facilitating the remote operation of the Parkes 64m radiotelescope, including planning, development and commissioning, with the support of the ATNF Technologies Theme staff.

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Remote Operations? ‘To enable computer control & monitoring of standard telescope systems’ Health & Safety (HSE); Reliability; Rationalise legacy systems Scheduling improvements Science Operations Centre DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS: Parkes Drive Control Parkes Control & Monitor Parkes Receiver Fleet

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Health, Safety and the Environment SAFETY IS PARAMOUNT FOR REMOTE OPERATIONS!

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Parkes Drive Control Objective: Computer control of the MCP (manual Control Panel): Development platform hardware nearing completion Documented software Procedures for safe remote operation

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Parkes Equipment Control & Monitor Objective: Safe, reliable remote monitoring & control of critical telescope systems. Focus Cabin In practice a “remote site”. Need monitoring and diagnostic access to the major subsystems (DC power, receiver & translator). Improved connectivity, including video and audio monitoring. Vibration monitoring

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Parkes Equipment Control & Monitor Conversion system and signal distribution Rationalisation of signal distribution, replacement of manual patch panels with a computer controlled switching. RF/IF switching matrix Calibration computer controllable (done!) Multiband conversion system attenuators computer controllable (done!)

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Parkes Equipment Control & Monitor Power systems Diesel/UPS control Remote monitoring, diagnostics Synchroniser unit for the generator – reliability and remote control & monitoring.

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Parkes Receiver Fleet Rationalisation Objective: Establish a maintainable set of receivers consistent with expected science demand. Planning under way on: S/X band – Modify MARS receiver package (widen X-band bandwidth, add S-band LNA’s, design/manufacture new dual- band S/X feedhorn) and add to the Parkes Conversion System ; L band (H-OH) – Design & fit new improved feed system; C-band – Convert existing K/Ku package with new LNA’s to cover at least GHz (target 4 – 12 GHz); NOTE: Concurrent demands/competing priorities from other projects for the same ATNF Technologies staff resources → including ASKAP and Project 117 (RF/IF monitoring).

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Parkes Receiver Fleet

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Development Projects – Systematic Approach Make things fit together, for safety & efficiency Standard approaches and COTS solutions, where possible Integrated power solutions Minimise self-RFI (EMC), shutdown of non-essential systems In addition to installation of hardware/software, need to review & update (maintenance/operational) handover processes, consistent with relevant AUS/NZ HSE Standards. Set, update & review priorities, resource allocations & monitor costs.

CSIRO. ATNF Engineering Operations: Parkes Development Projects Future Challenges Consolidating on the Development Projects to support the planned Science Operations Centre (SOC); Transition to ASKAP Operations; and Meeting user expectations under a limited budget.
