CISN Display

Summary of What we want in the ICSN/WaveForm Display 08/11/19

This project started in the 07-08 school year with Mekhin desgining the program itself. He graduated that year and so I have been wokring on it this year. My part hasn't been in the programming, but instead the documentation and physical set-up. The CISN/Waveform Display is a project by NEES which is a subset of ICS. The CISN portion will show near real-time earthquake activity, while the Wavefom display will show real time seismic waves at various location around California.The set up should explain about both the displays, ICS, and possibly NEES. NOTE: It maybe wise to look into using laucnhd or launchctl for keeping the display running and starting on boot

This is the Original documentation on all all CISN/ Waveform Disply Information This is Mehkin's Original hand written notebook about his work on the project

Current Status of Production

Current Status Summary 08/11/17

Display Stand:

done

• Can hold one or two screens as neccesary, built by nick webster in the Geology Machine shop. (Document the building!) To see the Documentation of the Display Stand click this link.

CISN Kiosk Mode:

done

• Mekhin did this (mostly) but i had to do some refining

Documentation of how to create CISN in Kiosk Mode:

done

• Mekhin left documentation concerning all he did, but much of it is unclear, especially to those (like me) with little computer experience. I am reading it now, putting it in accesible language, while attempting to install it on the computer, "ruby" NEW: Am working on a shell script to automate quit finder, will also kill dock, works well.
• The only thing left to do for this is create a launchd script which:
  • starts CISN Display running coninuously
  • Kills finder while! CISN is loading (otherwise it doesnt stay dead)
  • restarts the dispaly every night to make sure windows aren't screwed up
