Teagan King edited this page Dec 2, 2021 · 3 revisions

The JWQL application uses the JWST Engineering Database (known as the "EDB") to retrieve telemetry data for JWST. This wiki page serves as a spot for various information that may be useful for JWQL developers and/or users.

The Engineering Database Interface ReadTheDocs includes information on accessing the JWST Engineering Mnemonic Database tools, accessing the JWST Engineering Mnemonic Database through MAST, accessing the JWST Engineering Mnemonic Database through direct connection, and the Engineering Database common library.

The module jwql/jwql/edb/engineering_database.py provides jwql with convenience classes and functions to retrieve and manipulate mnemonics from the JWST DMS EDB.
