- Hosted at eel124gemdaq:4
  • XFCE Panel Menu for CODA Interface

- Start CODA - Start CODA RunControl GUI and xterms to CODA components
- Restart Stuff - Restart the component programs (xterms stay live)
- Kill Coda - kill all CODA components and RunControl GUI
- CODA Component Table - edit the table that maps the component names to their hostnames

Replay / Analyzer information

Please add links here.

coda_scripts

- github page
- Scripts locations:
  • sbs-onl@sbsvtp2 (and all other ROCs)
- ~/coda_scripts/
  • sbs-onl@eel124gemdaq
- ~/SBS-GENRP/coda_scripts/
  • Note that these are soft-links to
- /adaqfs/home/sbs-onl/sbsgem/coda_scripts/

Frontend scripts to use on eel124gemdaq

startCoda

  • executes each CODA component (platform, rcgui, PEB, ER, all ROCs) in a separate xterm

restartStuff

  • kills and restarts the PEB and ROCs. The xterms are not killed with this script.

kcoda

  • kills all CODA components

Backend scripts, called by the frontend scripts

remote_vme

  • script that restarts an ssh connection if it is closed.

startPEB.sh

  • script that launches coda_emu_peb. restarts it when it is killed.

startER.sh

  • script that launches coda_emu_er. restarts it when it is killed.

startROC.sh

  • script for sbsvme31, sbsvme24 that launches coda_roc with a ROC name determined from the coda_component_table.cfg

startFPGA.sh

  • script on sbsvtp2, sbsvtp4 that launches coda_roc with a ROC name determined from the coda_component_table.cfg

kill_remotes.sh

  • kills off all start*.sh processes.

Useful stand-alone programs

remex

log into any machine first with the sbs-onl (e.g.) 

 ssh sbs-onl@eel124gemdaq
 remex <remexHost> <function call>
  • Execute a function call on the specified remote Host
- Run without arguments for usage

Usage for setting trigger source

Must be done after Download

  • TSINPUT
 remex sbsvmeROC1 "rocSetTriggerSource(0)"
  • Random Pulser
 remex sbsvmeROC1 "rocSetTriggerSource(1)"
  • Fixed Pulser
 remex sbsvmeROC1 "rocSetTriggerSource(2)"

MPD programs

log into the VME Controller first with the sbs-onl (e.g.) 

 ssh sbs-onl@sbsvme30
 cd ~/mpd-test/

mpdStatus

 mpdStatus <mpd slot number>
  • Show the status of MPD at slot <mpd slot number>
- Run without <mpd slot number> to scan all slots.

mpdApvConfig (formerly i2c_test)

 mpdApvConfig <mpd slot number> <configfile>
  • Test the initialization and configuration of the APVs in the specified MPD.
- Does the same initialization that is done in mpd_list.c:rocDownload()
- Also attempts the readback of the APV registers with mpdApvStatus(0)

mpdI2CScan

 mpdI2CScan <mpd slot number>
  • Scan i2c addresses for any APVs from MPD in specified slot number
- Configure those found APVs with some default register values
- Display the APV registers

mpdFiberStatus

 mpdFiberStatus <mpd slot number>
  • Display the status of the fiber transceiver

ProgramEpcs

 $LINUXVME/mpd/libsrc/firmware/ProgramEpcs -s <mpd_vme_slot> -v <firmware .jic file>
  • Update MPD firmware at specified VME address.
- Described in https://hallaweb.jlab.org/dvcslog/SBS/251

RunUserFpga

 $LINUXVME/mpd/libsrc/firmware/RunUserFpga -s <mpd_vme_slot> (-f)
  • Change between user and factory FPGA image.
- Described in https://hallaweb.jlab.org/dvcslog/SBS/251


VTP programs

log into the VTP first with the sbs-onl. 

 ssh sbs-onl@sbsvtp3
 cd ~/vtp-test/

vtpMpdStatus

 vtpMpdStatus
  • Show the status the VTP as well as its connected MPDs (those found with channel up)

vtpMpdInit

 vtpMpdInit  cfgFileName
  • Initialize VTP and their attached MPDs and APVs (those found with channel up)
  • If cfgFileName is provided, use it to define the MPD and APV to initialize

vtpMpdFiberStatus

 vtpFiberStatus
  • Show the status of all fiber channels on the VTP
- executes vtpMpdPrintStatus(0, 0)

vtpMpdSampleMode

 vtpMpdSampleMode
  • Dump raw adcs samples to file.
  • work in progress...


other VME programs

log into the VME controller first with the sbs-onl 

 ssh sbs-onl@sbsvme30

tiLibTest

 $CODA_VME/ti/test/tiLibTest <TI slot number>
  • Test triggering capabilities of the local TI.
- Puts the local TI in master mode (with no slaves).
- Accepts triggers either from Front Panel TSinputs or Internal Random Pulser

vme_display

 vme_display <VME Address> <read size in bytes>
  • Display the read value of specified size from the specified VME address.
- Run without arguments for usage

vme_modmem

 vme_modmem <VME Address> <read/write size in bytes>
  • Modify the value of specified size of the specified VME address.
- Run without arguments for usage

Extra packages installed
