Sigproc

Software: Sigproc

Key Type(s): Int, String

Depends on: TEMPO1

Change at: Compilation

Repo: https://github.com/FRBs/sigproc

Sigproc requires a unique number for your telescope and processing machine to be identified. It must be changed prior to compiling and installing Sigproc. You can chose any 32-bit integer as your unique identifier, the existing IDs are present in the alias.c file you will be editing.

Any names must be less than 79 characters long, beyond that you may encounter undefined behaviour.

All changes need to be made in the src/alias.c file. Three changes are required,

• char tempo_site(int telescope_id) needs your chosen unique identifier and your TEMPO1 location code. Note, this should be a single character, not a string.

	/*** Previous cases ***/
	case my_telescope_id:
		return my_tempo_char;
		break; // Unnecessary, but matches the rest of the function
	/*** Default case .... ***/

• char *telescope_name (int telescope_id) needs your chosen telescope name and unique identifier.

	/*** Previous cases ***/
    case my_telescope_id:
    	strcpy(string, "my_telescope_name");
		break;
    /*** Default case ... ***/

• char *backend_name (int machine_id) needs your chosen processing machine name and another (or the same) unique identifier.

	/*** Previous cases ***/
    case my_telescope_id:
    	strcpy(string, "my_processing_node_name");
		break;
    /*** Default case ... ***/
