Power-Cycling VME Crate

To power-cycling the Injector crates. This is necessary when ROC31 (aka g0inj) or ROC24 (aka happexinj) get hung up. Go to: http://g0injreboot.acc.jlab.org (parity, parity).

"sbcmdaq0" is connected to Outlet4. Click "Control Action" and select "Immediate Off", then click the "Apply" button. Wait a few seconds, then "Control Action" and "Immediate On" and "Apply".


Mott DAQ sbcmdaq0

Upgraded from MVME6100/VxWorks to Intel/Linux VME SBC. For more information, please see: [1]

sbcmdaq0 is running CentOS release 5.10 (Final), Kernel 2.6.18-371.6.1.el5PAE on an i686.

To access the Mott DAQ VME SBC: 

 idaq@opsmdaq0 > ssh sbcmdaq0

The DAQ files are at: 

 idaq@opsmdaq0 > /opt/coda/sbcmdaq0


Mott DAQ iocmdaq1

There are two ways to access the Mott DAQ ioc:
  1. From an accelerator machine: telnet iocmdaq1
  2. From an accelerator machine: ioc_concole iocmdaq1. Here you need to enter a password to this cannot be done with the idaq account.
The startup file: idaq@opsmdaq0:/cs/op/iocs/iocmdaq1/startup

 # IOC: iocmdaq1
 # Location:
 shellPromptSet("vxwrks@iocmdaq1 -> ");
 # Add the DAQ Host
 hostAdd "opsmdaq0","129.57.236.240"
 # Mount the CODA Distribution
 nfsMount "opsmdaq0","/opt","/opt"
 # Load CODA software and Drivers for Mott system
 cd "/opt"
 < /opt/coda/boot/mott_roc1.boot

CODA Files

CODA crl files are in: idaq@opsmdaq0: /opt/idaq/crl
Scalers.crl
Mott_Sample.crl
Mott_SemiInt.crl
PEPPo_Int.crl
To compile: makelist Mott_Sample.crl ppc

CODA scripts files are in: idaq@opsmdaq0: /opt/idaq/scripts


Summary of CODA Configurations

Name Readout Output Trigger
Scalers Scaler S1 (helicity gated), S2 (un-gated) Scalers_%d.dat Delayed nT_Settle
Mott_Sample Mott FADC, S1, S2, TDC Mott_Sample_%d.dat Mott Detector
Mott_SemiInt Mott FADC, S1, S2, TDC Mott_SemiInt_%d.dat Mott Detector
PEPPo_Int INT FADC, S1, S2 PEPPo_Int_%d.dat nT_Settle


Backup Data Files to SILO

Cron scripts are installed on the idaq account on opsmdaq0 to back up data and delete it from /data and /data1: 

/opt/idaq/cron/cron_opsmdaq0

Do not attempted to copy, delete, move, or rename files. Never !

The scripts assume that data appears in /data*/DIR where DIR = "annihilation" or "compton" or "mott" Files must have the keywords "PEPPo" or "Scalers" or at least "dat". This avoids writing scratch files like root output. Do not start putting data in some new place or with new names. It won't be backed up to MSS if you do that.

The data are deleted from local disks if they have been written in duplicate with correct byte count to the MSS tape silo. The data stay on disk for an amount of time that is related to the amount of disk space is available. If lots of disk available, the data stay forever. If not much disk, the data are deleted aggressively. 

 The data is copied to: /mss/accel/peppo/raw

The copying of data was disabled on January 3rd, 2014.

TDC

 CAEN v775
 const int V775_ADD    = 0x1190

 From Coda file:
 Full Scale (ns) = v775_getFSR() = 134 ns
 Bin Resolution (ps) = (v775_getLSB()*1000.) = 34 ps/channel

 vxwrks@iocmdaq1 -> v775_printScaleInfo()
 v775 => fullscale register =255 (0xff), LSB=0.034902 ns/chan, full scale=134.023529 ns, sliding Gate=1

 The TDC is operated in Common Start Mode: v775_setupCommonStart()

S1 and S2

 S2: SIS3801 at addr 0xa50000

TID

 A24 Address for TID Module (0x100000 for VME Slot 2)
 const TRIG_ADDR       = 0x100000

Reference: Media:TImaster.pdf


Trigger Prescale

The input trigger can be prescaled by editing the crl file:
 /* Front panel trigger prescale: 2^<arg> */
 tidSetPrescale(0);


cefdmp/xcefdmp

The event dump utility (cefdmp) can display, in a readable ASCII format, events from the data files.

Syntax

% cefdmp [filename] [-o object] [-t tag] [-u uniquetag] [-s start] [-e end] [-d dictionary] [-x] 
% xcefdmp [same]

Options

o specify the source object name (CODA component name) 
t select specified tag number or name (full path in event structure) 
u select specified unique tag, independent of location in the event 
s number of first record in file to dump 
e number of last record in file to dump 
d specify dictionary for obtaining tag names and titles 
x hex dump of integers (default is decimal)

cedit and dbedit

Use cedit and/or dbedit to modify CODA database.

Issues and FAQ

  • RunNumber: if the run number in msql is different from the one in CODA cool database, coda doesn't work. Open dbedit => localhost => sessions and change the RunNumber to match the one in CODA cool database.
