    Entry number 190564

    This entry is a followup to: 190561

    keyword=(DAQ expert please read) Trigger numbers for run 1461

    Checked trigger values for run 1460 against earlier runs, and they appear consistent with the values from runs 1456-1458, so I *think* we are OK.

    In summary, two things changed between runs 1458 and 1460.

    1.) RHRS IOC and NMR reboot (looks OK)
    2.) Coda ended abnormally, and was restarted (see below)

    *As far as I can tell*, everything is running normally, but I am still concerned about the coda restart, that it was done correctly.

    What I did was:

    * In adaql2, run "startcoda"
    * When gui came up, ckicked "connect"
    * When prompted, chose "two_arm" (only real choice beside pedestal)
    * Clicked "configure" and "download"

    The run number reset automatically to 1460 and all of the previous begin-run values appeared in the begin-run dialog box.

    Started run 1460 (no endrun for 1459)
    Run started and ran normally (as least as it appears to me)
    Ended run and looked at prescales and trigger values. All appear OK

    Started run 1461, which also appears to be running normally.

    What I do not know is whether there were other processes that needed to be shut down. To be honest, there are so many stray windows on the DAQ workstation, it is essentially impossible to make sense of anything. I would reccommend that a DAQ expert go through these windows and eliminate those that are no longer needed ASAP.
