CODA Startup

Go to Injector -> Spin -> Mott Screen and open script STARTCODA. See STARTCODA HELP for directions on using CODA

From an accelerator machine: ssh -X idaq@itfmdaq0

Note: idaq is the injector DAQ account and uses ssh authorized_keys for login - no need to enter password

Execute the following:

% startCoda

Start and Stop a Run

From Run Control panel, select in the following order (Note: if any of the selection is already completed, move to the next step):

Configurations => CODA Config => Mott_Sample
Configure
Download
Prestart (or Start. Note that Start combines both Prestart and Go)
Go

To stop a run:

End

To start a new run, select:

Prestart (or Start. Note that Start combines both Prestart and Go)
Go
End

and if you want to apply a change or you need a new configuration:

Reset

and start from number 5.

Configuration File
