Weekly update after a week of testing the controller chain.

Weekly update. Control chain is working pretty good now.
One small defect: calibrationController does not get a RELEASE message.
Next task is checking the monitoring info in PVSS.

Use correct constants.
Use 8000 as default gain.

Use single MAX_N_RCUS definition from MEPHeader

Use common definition of MEPHeader::MAX_N_RCUS

Prepare for MAC-RTC-6_0 release

Fixed problem with exception that would be thrown when compiled with optimised flags:
setrcu.rcumask.to_ulong() would throw an exception because number of bits (256) is larger than nof bits in a long.

Used single definition of MEPHeader::MAX_N_RCUS

Use single definition from MEPHeader::MAX_N_RCUS

Checkin comment for previous (mistaken) checkin.

Allow specification of negative --integration. This is handy to allow saving
statistics during a long period with an interval > 1 sec but without integration:

E.g. ./rspctl --statis=beamlet --select=0,1 --duration=3600 --integration=-10

Would save beamlet statistics every 10 seconds for a period of 3600 seconds (360 spectra are saved).
The spectrum is sampled/saved every 10 seconds without integrating over the 10 second period.

Reduce INFO logging.

Default configuration file match preferred CS-1 settings.

Get ready for MAC-RTC-6_0 release.

Weekly update.

Added masks for KeyValueLogger executables.

Simple program that produces a logmessage every 10 seconds to test the
log-chain to PVSS.

Copy the positions array when creating a new SubArray from a parent
AntennaArray. This is needed because the constructor of the SubArray
class compacts (modifies) the positions array when certain continguous
sections of receivers are not selected.

Added 'DisableACMProxy' configuration variable to stop CalServer from
controlling the cross-correlation subband. This is sometimes needed for testing purposes.

Fix construction of position and rcuindex array of a subarray.
The fixed code now also allows e.g. subarrays of only Y-receivers or X-receivers.

Commit comment for previous commit (1.4 to 1.5).
Make constant for start delay. Delay now set to 30.0 seconds.

Comment for previous commit (from 1.8 to 1.9):
Only set weight when the receiver is selected (destrcu >= 0).

Previous commit (from 1.27 to 1.28) fixed missed deadline problems.
It introduces a LEANIN_TIME. Weights are sent this many seconds ahead of wall clock time.

logPointing is no longer used.

Added some debugging statements.
Station location is now specified in WGS84 radians/meters.

Combine write() and write_force() transition into one transition.
The new write() transition allows transition from IDLE and from CHECK to WRITE.
The previous more restricted transition (only from IDLE) was causing some
writes not to happen, most notably writing of WG registers.

Use new namespace for constants that were moved to MEPHeader.h.

Use new register state flags for each write to a hardware register.
Replace write_force() calls by write() calls.

Fixed range error. This was causing writing of subband selection to overwrite
cross-correlation subbands selection settings.

Fix range. Crosslet weights are handled separately now in XWWrite.cc

Fixed WG angle setting.

Fix XC_FILL option. Both indices (antenna and polarization need to be swapped).

Port.conf is not used anymore.

Move some much used constants from EPA_Protocol.prot to MEPHeader.h
Change code to use the new context of the constants.

Now keeping separate states on each individual write to following registers:
DIAG_WG
SST
XST
CDO

This is important to make sure any changes are written correctly from cache to hardware.

Some test scripts to test beamformer en correlator.

Merged relevant changes of the BBS-CDR branch into the main development
line. A detailed ChangeLog file can be found in the LOFAR root directory on
the LOFAR-BBS-CDR-branch.

Added debugging and some extra errornumbers.

Control chain is now working. Needs several fine-tuning before releasing.

Cleanup.
Use new -q options to rsuctl to prevent delay checking for running RSPDriver.

Add new -1 options to prevent delay caused by check for running RSPDriver.
Used by crsuctl.sh (cluster rsuctl) to speed it up.
