    Entry number 359445

    keyword=SFI Sequencer

    I've created a SFI Sequencer CODA configuration for the LHRS called "LHRSSEQ." The CRL files 
    for the ROCs are located in ~/crl on the a-onl account and are called sfi3_seq.crl,sfi4_seq.crl 
    and sfi5_seq.crl. The crl is based off of Dave Abbott's code except I'm using direct fastbus 
    calls. I'm also trying to readout all the modules and crates.
    
    Currently this configuration is not set-up to run in buffered mode. When I try and run it in 
    buffered mode, the event number never passes 11 (i.e. it takes some events and then goes into 
    infinite dead-time). Even running in non-buffered mode produces more dead-time than (~60% 
    at 4kHz) compared to a similar non-buffered configuration without the sequencer crl. 
    
    In the ROC xterm windows I also get the following errors:
    
    ROC4:
    0x1ec3d180 (ROC): fpbr error pa=10 res=0x18004 maxBytes=9200 retBytes=516140728 
    fifo=0x0
    
    ROC3:
    0x1b3ef90 (ROC): fpbr error pa=10 res=0x18004 maxBytes=9200 retBytes=28560584 
    fifo=0x0
    
    ROC5:
    
    0x1ec3d350 (ROC): fpbr error pa=23 res=0x18004 maxBytes=800 retBytes=0 
    fifo=0x238
    
    These errors occur during the Prestart and come from the SFIRamLoad() function call. I tried 
    power-cycling the crates but the error is still there.
