Main Pam Controller class which will communicate with the PamModelInterface and with the PamViewInterface

      Parameters:
      runMode - - the run mode

    • startOfflineTasks

      public void startOfflineTasks()
      Called when batch processing offline tasks from the AUTOSTART functions. Will start an offline task controller, which will then work it's way through the groups of tasks.

    • setupPamguard

      public void setupPamguard()
      Setup the PAMController.

    • netReceiveStatus

      public void netReceiveStatus(long timeMilliseconds, int nPrepared, int nStarted, int nStopped)
      Called when the number of Networked remote stations changes so that the receiver can make a decision as to what to do in terms of preparing detectors, opening files, etc.

      Can PAMGUARD shut down. This question is asked in turn to every module. Each module should attempt to make sure it can answer true, e.g. by closing files, but if any module returns false, then canClose() will return false;
      Returns:
      whether it's possible to close PAMGUARD without corrupting or losing data.
