📄️ TART workshops
A TART workshop is a week-long workshop where the participants build a TART telescope, and are taught how it works by experts in the field of radio astronomy. The team for a TART workshop usually consists of some members of the TART project, as well as others who have attended previous TART workshops. The goal is to leave behind a working telescope, and relationships between insitutions that can lead to joint supervision of research students as well as welcoming new members into the TART community.
📄️ Electronics
The TART Electronics consist of the motherboard, The 24 radio receivers on 6 radio modules, the correlator, the single-board-computer, the power-supply, associated co-ax cables and the enclosure.
📄️ Antenna Array
The TART antenna array structure has the job of holding the TART antennas in known locations. The spiral design is a key feature of the array, allowing for efficient packing and easy access to the antennas.
📄️ Single-board Computer
This is a Raspberry pi 3/4 Model B. The basic installation steps are:
📄️ Debugging Antennas
Here is a guide to finding faulty antennas and working out the root cause of the issue. This guide will help you identify the problem and provide solutions to fix it.
📄️ Debugging Networking
Here is a guide to debugging network connectivity issues with a TART. If you can see your TART on the TART Map, then your TART is successfully connecting to the network. If you can not see your TART, or it is listed in red, then you may have a local network connectivity issue.
📄️ TART Tools Package Documentation
The tart-tools package (found in the tmolteno/tartmodules repository) provides a suite of command-line interface (CLI) utilities for interacting with the Transient Array Radio Telescope (TART).
