Suricate’s documentation

Preface

GUIs, RFI checkers, receiver monitors, backends, meteo services, they all need to know some antenna parameters like the current azimuth and elevation, device temperatures, configurations, LO frequencies and so forth. This documentation shows how to easily get them by means of an application called Suricate, composted by three packages: Application Programming Interface, Control system monitor, and Alarms notification. There is one chapter for each package and the first one, Application Programming Interface, explains how to use the HTTP API to send commands to the control system and to get all antenna parameters. If you are a system administrator in charge of installing Suricate, please read the System Administrator Guide.
