It looks to me like the idl routines are waiting for a response from the camera, pspt_show_image subroutine (in pspt.pro) seems to stall at intial definition line which contain the variable array called "img" which is a 2 dimensional array that is supposed to be created by the IDL/NSO software used in mcg.pro . I checked out the Xedar camera controller box and don't see anything unusual with it, it contains a fuse which is still goog. I asked Greg if he could send us a spare Xedar camera box if he can find one there. Tomorrow I'll probably try swapping the interface board on the Sparc that connects to the Xedar camera box, this camera box has an optical link with the camera so there must be other connections with the camera that I'll need to find and test too. ___end___ CoMP COMMENT BY DARRYL: Wed Oct 6 00:49:38 GMT 2010 Sending CoMP #2 HDD to Don today. ___end___ Wed Oct 6 00:59:12 GMT 2010 MkIV 17_25.rawmk4 17_54.rawmk4 18_34.rawmk4 19_31.rawmk4 20_00.rawmk4 17_28.rawmk4 17_57.rawmk4 19_05.rawmk4 19_34.rawmk4 20_03.rawmk4 17_31.rawmk4 18_00.rawmk4 19_08.rawmk4 19_37.rawmk4 20_06.rawmk4 17_34.rawmk4 18_03.rawmk4 19_10.rawmk4 19_40.rawmk4 20_09.rawmk4 17_37.rawmk4 18_06.rawmk4 19_13.rawmk4 19_43.rawmk4 20_12.rawmk4 17_40.rawmk4 18_09.rawmk4 19_16.rawmk4 19_46.rawmk4 c18_18.rawmk4 17_43.rawmk4 18_12.rawmk4 19_19.rawmk4 19_49.rawmk4 c18_25.rawmk4 17_46.rawmk4 18_15.rawmk4 19_22.rawmk4 19_52.rawmk4 c18_31.rawmk4 17_48.rawmk4 18_21.rawmk4 19_25.rawmk4 19_55.rawmk4 17_51.rawmk4 18_28.rawmk4 19_28.rawmk4 19_57.rawmk4
