VLBI
VLBI
Track a single position for VLBI.
This observing mode must not be used for other (non-VLBI) observations.
Some special behaviours are asscociated with the observing mode VLBI:
- The scan has only one subscan on the (fixed) source position.
- This subscan will be executed for up to 1 hour.
In practice it is ended, when the START command is executed for the
next observation, e.g., when a new VLBI scan, or a POINTING or FOCUS
is started.
- Normally, the VLBI field system sends the commands
SOURCE ...
VLBI
START
directly to paKo, which is running in a special terminal window. The
field system sends these commands for the next scan (immediately)
after the VLBI data recording for the current VLBI target source
(for the currant scan) is finished.
