To-do List
Analysis List:
- Update MottOnline
- Add BPM Analysis
- Replace "PEPPo" with "Mott" in scripts, decoder, ... .
- Add delayed helicity analysis for Mott_Sample and Mott_SemiInt Modes. Delayed analysis is already included for Scalers and PEPPo_Int Modes.
Things to do to speed up the DAQ and reduce deadtime:
- Change Mott_SemiInt to the new mode: reads integral and pedestal instead of only integral
- Upgrade the time-of-flight readout to the FADC TDC mode
- upgrade the scalers readout to the FADC Scaler mode
- Add Block Readout
9- At one time, we used minicom to hard reboot the Mott DAQ VME crate. This service was discontinued. Instead, we will use the RS232 connection on the CAEN VME64X VME8200.
