Designed to operate with the OS/COMET® system, the OA/Tool is real-time multi-operator sequencing, collaboration, and process flow design tool and provides the capability to schedule, monitor, and control automated control center activities. Activities include:

Commanding sessions
Ranging
Pre-pass, in-pass and post-pass set-up
Commanding
Tear-down

User supplied procedures, implemented as OS/COMET® Perform Files, may perform any operation available to the real-time operator. Each procedure is controlled as a step and steps may be grouped into a task . User specified configuration information for startup and initialization is supported. OA/Tool also effectively manages activity execution by use of priority task queue schemes.
