Inspect the data. Keep the model separate.

Recorded channel × time matrices, not pupil images.

How to read this laboratory

Start with simulation OFF. Each column is one retained time sample; each row is a sensor channel or actuator. The moving line selects the numbers above the maps. Drag the sample control to pause and inspect a frame. Colours are display-scaled and clipped; they are not calibrated wavefront error. The reduced sample cannot support temporal spectra or bandwidth estimates.

Switch simulation ON for an independent six-mode teaching experiment. Mode and feedback inputs reset its deterministic state; the conversion wavelength does not. Gains do not describe the CIAO controller. The conversion wavelength changes residual OPD in nanometres, not phase in waves or dimensionless PSF.
