    keyword=missing gates on R-HRS (not)

    Some people asked about missing gates on R-HRS DAQ.
    I investigated and found that someone has removed the
    power supplies from the 2 CAMAC crates and therefore,
    obviously, no gates.

    To make gates I (temporarily) put the L1A directly to
    the RT and viola! I have gates on both ROC1 and ROC2.

    While flailing around (not realizing the CAMAC was
    dead) I did find one anomoly: the ADC in slot 24 of ROC1
    does not respond to the Fastbus test code (test_1881.o).

    All other slots of ROCs 1 and 2 did respond.
    The Fastbus power supplies are all ok.

    However, that ADC does respond to scan in the trigger
    routine, and it's little green (gate) and yellow (addressing)
    lights flash during a CODA run. See for example runs
    20052 and 20053 -- no missing gates.

    I'd say we'll be ok as soon as the CAMAC is restored.
