Here are some notes on the Compton DAQ Development.

Start date Sept 26, 2012

Will work on adev account.

Want to use CODA 2.6. Save the old tcshrc file cp .tcshrc tcshrc_22feb2012

VME cpu bbvme1 presently on bbps1 2002

FADC library for VME /adaqfs/halla/adev/fadc/v1.2

crl is /adaqfs/home/adev/fadc/v1.2/fadc_list.crl

Decoding of FADC /adaqfs/halla/adev/fadc/ComptonAnalyzer

Attempts to make CODA 2.6 work on adev

1. Adjusted .tcshrc, adding things at top (comments there).

2. Create coda26 directory. Put $COOL_HOME there.

3. Minor problems. Had to start msqld by hand (/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S82msqld_s on adaql2). Had to run cedit or dbedit on adaql1, not adaq1, b/c on adaq1 it complains cedit: error while loading shared libraries: libXm.so.3: (adaq1 has libXm.so.4)

4. Minor problems (part II). Needed links on adaq1, else CRLs don't compile. in /usr/local: ln -s /adaqfs/coda/vxworks-linux gcc-vxworks and ln -s /adaqfs/halla/apar/vxworks/5.5/gnu_vxworks gnu-ppc

5. Minor problems (part III). Can't run rcgui on adaq1 b/c missing libXtst.so.6. I guess it's looking in the wrong place since it's here: /usr/lib64/libXtst.so.6. Punt on adaq1. Use adaql1 (with the "l") for now.

6. startcoda on adev was a link to startcoda_2.5. Change this to startcoda_2.6

7. Bootscript on bbvme1 changed from /adaqfs/home/adev/bbite/vxworks/bbvme1_coda25.boot to /adaqfs/home/adev/vxworks/bbvme1_coda26.boot
