Phoenix in Oz:
Graphical User Interfaces
Project Phoenix Graphical User Interface (GUI)
Main Project Phoenix GUI
The screen image below shows the main graphical user interface. The
Phoenix GUI allows the observer to submit observations, edit the order
of observations, and send commands to the subsystems. The screen is divided
into three sections that monitor and control the status of observations in
the system. The bottom section shows the queued "activities" (observations
waiting to run). The middle section shows the activities that are "running"
in the system and their states. The top section shows candidate signals (not
identified as interference in the database) that will be checked by the
Follow-Up Detection Devices (FUDD).

TSS Monitor Display
TSS Monitor (3 kB)
The same monitor that displays the Execution GUI also shows a "status board"
for the subsystems. This gives the observer a quick visual cue if any
problems occur in the subsystems or in the communication between the
subsystems. The two Targeted Search System units are referred to as
TSS A and TSS B. The letter L or R following a subsystem name indicates
the polarization that it processes. MCSA L indicates a Multichannel
Spectrum Analyzer processing the Left Circular Polarization. Each Pulse
Detector (PD) processes both polarizations.
