Full Engineering Assessment · SKU MCAM-OBS-ENG-ASSESS
Turn a collection of devices into an engineered system.
A paid engineering report: inventory, maps, compatibility, architecture and a budgetary implementation path.
Tangible deliverables
System architecture
How control, state and interlocks should be arranged.
Compatibility matrix
Device by device, including the supported-path finding.
Power / control map
What can be switched, sequenced and recovered.
Network map
Hosts, links and remote-operation constraints.
Safety review
Weather, roof/dome and close-down consequences.
Driver inventory
Manufacturer, ASCOM, Alpaca and INDI as they actually exist.
Automation sequence
Open-up, observe, weather-safe, close-down, recovery.
Remote recovery
What can be diagnosed and restored without being on site.
Implementation roadmap
Phased work, not a shopping list disguised as engineering.
Preliminary BOM
Items to evaluate. Not a manufacturer affiliation.
Budgetary estimate
Range only. Final price follows scoped quote.
Architecture diagram
A diagram that belongs in the report, not a slide decoration.
Project process
MCAM does not begin by selling custom code.
We begin by understanding the observatory, then use the supported driver first.
Tell us what exists and what must change.
MCAM reviews hardware, software and interfaces.
Existing manufacturer interfaces are preferred where appropriate.
Any actual gaps are documented.
Integration or custom software is built only where needed.
Hardware and interface behavior is validated.
The customer verifies the agreed scope.
A versioned package, documentation or report is delivered.
Maintenance and engineering support remain available.
