Back to Beam Polariazation Measurement (How to)

Check list before measurements

Helicity, BCM signals in Hall A Counting room

Helicity, BCM, 100kHz signals in Hall A Moller electronics rack

Helmholz coils power supply

Target motion

Start CODA Moller database (msqld)

Login to adaql1 as moller and check if msqld daemon is running:

 adaql1> ps -u moller | grep msqld

if output like that:

 22600 ?        00:00:01 msqld

than msqld is running. If not, to start it type:

 adaql1> run_daemon_db msqld &

CODA LED test run

Check Helicity signals and scalers data in CODA data file

To check helicity, QRT signals type in paw:

 paw> exe run run=15623
 Run=15624 is attached to lun=21
 paw> nt/sca //lun21/1 nsca>0 50 1 ! itick itrig(1) itrig(6) itrig(8)

This is output for 30Hz helicity (pair):

ADC Pedestals check

Set HV ON on moller detector. (Need link to HV ON)
Select configuration "moller_puls" in old CODA, download it.
In "mpc" programm load configuration "PULSER_SET" to detector electronics and start CODA run.
Take 3000-5000 events and stop run.
In ~/paw/moller start paw:

 > paw
 paw> exec run run=15627
 paw> exec lg_pedes run=15627 pulschk=1

Copy output results into text file with name "pedes_#RunNumber.dat", where #RunNumber is CODA "pulser" run.
Edit file "lg_spectra.kumac", replace:

 ...
 else
   ve/read pedes,pedcut pedes_14754.dat
 endif
 ...

with:

 esleif [run]<#RunNumber then
   ve/read pedes,pedcut pedes_14754.dat

Detector HV tuning

HV for Moller detector:

  portserver: hatsv5:2003
  slot #5: ch:(0-3) - Calorimeter Left  (1-4); 
	   ch:(4-7) - Calorimeter Right (1-4)
  slot #6: ch:(0-3) - Aperture Left  (1-4); 
	   ch:(4-7) - Aperture Right (1-4)

Start CODA run
Tune detector HV
Check signals peak position at ADC channel.

 paw> exec run run=15625
 paw> exec lg_spectra run=15625

FADC DAQ: check signals peak position on online monitor 'mollmon'
Change HV for calorimeter in order to align the Møller peak position at ADC channel 300 for each block.
Repeat from #1

Thresholds tuning

Polarization measurements

Start dbedit on adaql1, select "mollerpol_l" database and set in "beam_pol" configuration table in row "code" parameter "adcevents" from 9 to 2: " ... adcevents=2"
Make at least two CODA runs in order to use both coil polarities.

Data analysis:

old DAQ: adaql1:~/paw/moller/

  > paw
  paw> exec run run=15625
  paw> exec lg_spectra run=15625
  paw> exec time run=15625
  paw> exec asym11 run=15625

FADC DAQ: hamoller:~/fadc_analysis/moller_fadc-15Nov2011/

  > bash
  > source root-setup.sh
  > cd onlana
  > analyser

Results presentation

Results of all runs from "asym11" stored in files: runs.tab, res.dat
Do copy these files to paw/moller/meas:

 > cp runs.tab meas/runs.tab.#RunBeg-#RunEnd
 > cp res.dat meas/res.dat.#RunBeg-#RunEnd

To plot and average results, edit file: ~/paw/moller/asym_avt.kumac
comment old beam polarization data and add new one, modify output of 'ps' file and titles with date then run it.

Troubleshooting

VME crates reboot

Software reboot if VME crate is running:

old DAQ hallavme5:

	  > telnet hatcv5 2004
  	  > reboot
	  Ctrl and "]"
	  telnet> quit

FADC DAQ:

	  > telnet hatsv12 2005
  	  > reboot
	  Ctrl and "]"
	  telnet> quit

Hardware reboot if crates not response:

On adaql2 start firefox old DAQ hallavme5: Go to: hareboot6

          user: hlauser
	  select "Device Manager" tab,
	  select "Control" from left menu,
	  select in small box Outlet #8,
	  select Action "Reboot Immediatly " and
	  press "Next" button to activate action.

Wait for few minutes while VME crate is rebooting.

FADC DAQ crate: Go to: hareboot26

	  user: hlauser
	  select in "ON" box Outlet #1,	
	  select in small box Outlet #1,	
	  select Action "Reboot Immediatly " and
	  press "Next" button to activate menu.
	  press "Apply" button to activate action.
