Main computer in Test Lab

DAQ files are in a-onl account
booting CPU / portserver
portserver bbts-tlab
To connect to a CPU :
telnet bbts-tlab 200x
bbsfi
CPU parameters ROC1
boot device : dc0 processor number : 0 host name : srcdaq file name : /home/a-onl/bbite/vxworks/vx2400_v2 inet on ethernet (e) : 129.57.36.180:fffffc00 inet on backplane (b): host inet (h) : 129.57.37.93 gateway inet (g) : 129.57.36.1 user (u) : a-onl ftp password (pw) (blank = use rsh): flags (f) : 0x20 target name (tn) : bbsfi1-tlab startup script (s) : /home/a-onl/bbite/vxworks/bb_sfi1.boot other (o) :
To reprogram ROC1 bootparameters you can use the python script :
progROC1
it is located in /home/a-onl
CPU parameters ROC2
boot device : dc0 processor number : 0 host name : srcdaq file name : /home/a-onl/bbite/vxworks/vx2400_v2 inet on ethernet (e) : 129.57.36.196:fffffc00 inet on backplane (b): host inet (h) : 129.57.37.93 gateway inet (g) : 129.57.36.1 user (u) : a-onl ftp password (pw) (blank = use rsh): flags (f) : 0x20 target name (tn) : bbsfi2-tlab startup script (s) : /home/a-onl/bbite/vxworks/bb_sfi2.boot other (o) :

Killing the booting
when booting the ROCs go wrong we can kill all them and start again
- Telnet telnet bbts-tlab - Login : type root - Password: dbps - Type : kill tty = x (x is the telnet we are using) - Quit
=> Start booting again
Reset Computer
whenever we restart computer need to do:
-Type : msqld & -Source dosetupcoda
Fastbus test programs
Location on srcdaq
/home/a-onl/bbite/test/fastbus
To load , type on the CPU :
cd "/home/a-onl/bbite/test/fastbus" ld < test_1877.o test_1877 slot_number
Fastbus detector map
ROC | Slot | Module | Detector | |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 9 | 1877 | VDC | |
Fastbus readout lists
Files are located in
/home/a-onl/bbite/crl
there is one file for each ROCs
readout line 1: bb_sfi2(1).o readout line 2: the same event_list_ppc.o
To compile a crl file do :
makelist filename ppc
Fastbus user manual
CODA
coda website
https://coda.jlab.org/drupal/content/install-instructions
Data analyzer
Install root :
https://root.cern.ch/drupal/
Install analyzer :
http://hallaweb.jlab.org/podd/index.html#docs http://hallaweb.jlab.org/podd/download/analyzer-1.5.28.tar.gz
Start CODA
Follow these steps to open the CODA:
1. Open a terminal. 2. Source dosetupcoda. 3. type rcplatform. 4. open other terminal, source dosetupcoda. 5. type codamaster to open other windown. 6. In codamaster has runcontrol used to take data.
Look at raw data file
To look at raw data file we need to look up manual to see how the module work and open the raw data file
- Open a terminal - Source dosetupcoda - Type : xcefdmp - View File - Data Source
Testing TDCs and Level Translators
Following
1. Open CODA 2. Take a Run 3. Replay the raw data 4. Look at the root file
=> Do plots with root file, plots will show the number of slot we have TDCs and the number of channel we are taking data on that TDC.
=> Make table for
- TDCs -- Run number -- Number of the slot -- Model of TDC -- Number of the channel
- Level Translators -- Run Number -- Board Number -- Card Number (counting from left)
V1495 programming
Use the quartus software
/home/a-onl/altera/10.1sp1/quartus/bin/quartus
The fan program is in :
/home/a-onl/V1495/V1495_User_Demo_QuartusII_Project_2_0
Open the project :
/home/a-onl/V1495/V1495_User_Demo_QuartusII_Project_2_0/FIT/v1495usr_demo.qpf
and modify coinc_reference.vhd
To program :
open programmer
and hit start button after compilation if needed
