Abstract
Major Atmospheric Cherenkov Experiment (MACE) is a large telescope commissioned at Ladakh region of India. It consists of many subsystems operating in synchronization to perform successful observations. The paper introduces a robust, concise and autonomous operator console to operate, control and monitor the entire experiment, providing workflow management, autonomous schedule-based observation, orchestration of data acquisition and monitoring of telemetry data, while maintaining safety of subsystems. Using a synchronised controller-observer pattern the highly-automated operator console carries out the entire observation on a single click from either local or from remote geographic locations. Remote operation of the telescope from BARC, Mumbai allowed pre-commissioning tests, troubleshooting and upgradation of the system from a more convenient environment.
