The filter wheel, the intensifier and the shutter is controlled by the SMARTMTR program. The SMARTMTR program in use is called Norway.prg. The CCD camera is controlled by the PMIS program. The PMIS program also cover the RS-232 communication (thin cable) to the SMARTMTR program. This is done via the RS-232 COM1: port.

When inspecting the camera system the operator should also watch the PMIS window.

The ACC2 program is a Visual Basic 5 program. It communicate with the PMIS program. The task of the ACC2 program is

to determine the times the camera should operate and what it should do when it operates.

The information from the ACC2 program is written in the

upper text panel in the ACC2 window. Every line starts with the time when the message is written. The last line written in the ACC2 text panel is the top line.

The highly unstable PC clock is corrected by the Garmin GPS 12XL receiver. This is done via a RS-232 cable on the COM2: port. The messages from the part of the program handling the GPS interface is shown in the lower text panel in the ACC2 window. The program checks every other minute if the PC clock should be corrected. The communication to the GPS receiver is handled by Visual Basic Communication control , MSComm .

The communication between the ACC2 program and the PMIS program is handled with DDE (Dynamic Data Exchange) protocol. The middle text panel in the ACC2 window is used as a DDE communication buffer.
