1. Introduction

Even if you wrote an MR and it's in Tex or another format, it is important that you at least cut and paste your introduction/restatement of requirements onto the wiki page so that your information is searchable.

2. Background

• GUPPI Manager Parameters
• Configuration Keywords

3. Requirements

What are the implementation-independent requirements for this MR?

3.1 Mapping Configuration Keywords to Manager Parameters

3.2 Defining the IF Path Between the Receiver and GUPPI

4. Design

What is your plan? How are you going to fulfill the requirements?

5. Add Any More Sections That Are Appropriate

6. Deployment Checklist

What has to get done to integrate this completely into the system. The generated checklist must be completed before Cycle Integration Testing begins.

Note - The questions below are just to get you thinking. Remove irrelevant questions. Answer relevant ones, but don't keep the question text. And, please take a moment to think of anything else that needs to happen during deployment.

• Communication with Computing group needed?
• What documentation needs to be updated?
• Training Needed? Is this being released to staff astronomers or everyone right now?
• Notification Needed?

7. Test Plan

Critical!! ChangeControlCommittee will be reviewing these. Please send a link to this MR to RonMaddalena along with a suggestion for two reviewers when it is ready for CCC review.

Don't forget to include/acquire any additional GBT test time needed outside integration/regression testing! Get your requests in early!

Important! If possible, you should conduct as many of your tests as possible in offline modes and/or with a simulator. We should constantly endeavor to minimize our use of telescope time for testing!

7.1 Internal Testing
